Ahhh Summer

Sorry guys for not blogging very much lately I have just not been in a writing mood. Obviously I am now.
We finally have summer weather here in Alberta. It has been cold and raining here for the past couple of months but the sun has finally decided to poke it's bright and shinning face out through the grey clouds. Thanks Mr. Sun we all really appreciate it. :}
The fair has started here in Red Deer too. We live right next door which means we get to go over when ever we want. Sure we still have to pay to get in, but we don't have to drive or spend all day there. We can come and go all we please. It's pretty nice. I'm not really into the rides for me it's all about the food. Mini doughnuts, Carmel and candy apples, cotton candy and homemade potato chips add a farris wheel into the mix and behold you have an amazing fair .
Yesterday I worked Until six thirty so my lovely siblings went and got some of the delicious food I previously mentioned. We hung out outside eating carnival food, listening to tunes and then we watched the fireworks at like eleven thirty. It was a really fun night. Hope yours was too.

My super fun day away :}










Today we ( my sisters, mom and I) all drove to Calgary. My older sister had laser surgery on her eyes so she won't have to wear glasses anymore. It's actually really neat. They cut a layer off her eye and all this other gross stuff. It's so cool that only fifteen minutes in the operating room and she can see without her glasses.





Unfortunately she had to wait around for like three hours for who knows what. I do know that it was super boring. I thought it would be nice to wait in the waiting room for her. I had Bethy (little sis) with me the whole time but honestly there is only so much two people can do in a waiting room.





At first we watched a few Skillet podcasts. For you people who aren't Panheads...Skillet is a Christian rawk band. Pretty wicked one too. Anyway we did that for awhile but then Bethy's ipod ran out of power so we started taking some pix with her camera. That was fun for awhile until that too died. So we sat there for at least half an hour doing nothing but staring out the window at the busy city of Calgary. It is a gorgeous city really and today was a super nice day...we were just stuck inside for most of it.





We did have the privilege of meeting one of the craziest people ever though. She was so talkative...remind you of someone...me? But seriously she talked to everyone in the office. She would ask questions, start discussions and heck she even offered advice. She was actually very entertaining. She really helped the time go by fast.





So yeah we ended up at the laser office for about three and half hours. My sister now can see without her glasses which is super cool. I just can't believe that she can see after a fifteen minute operation. Crazy!!

my first blog

This is my first blog. I have no clue what to write and my friends are being no help. So instead of this being a really good exciting interesting blog, It's going to be a stupid and boring one.
Oh today is Canada Day. Our country's 142 birthday. Happy birthday to you Canada :}
