Bryan's New Love

Not even a week after Bryan's car accident he was out and about looking for a new car. He got lucky and found a really nice car for not so expensive/not so cheap. He had a couple cars on his list to take a look at, and the first one was the Saturn Ion Coupe. He really liked the car, and it was one of the few left, so he decided to take it. Its a Silver 2007 Saturn Ion 3 Coupe. Bryan really wanted a two door sporty car, but since in the future we'd like to have children he decided he'd compromise with suicide doors in the back. Bryan really loved his first car, but I think he loves this car even more.

Bryan's Car Accident



Last night around 930pm Bryan was heading home from hanging out at my house, heading south on deerfoot. He had just finished the merge- doing the speed limit, when he came up on a car in the right lane who was only doing 80 km. By the time Bryan realized the guy was going to slow, he tried to swerve out of the way, but didn't make it in time. Bryan spun around a couple times and both cars ended up in the ditch, just over a cliff, 100 metres from the road. Bryan was okay, his air bags went off and more than likley saved his life, although he's a little sore today. The other driver seems to be okay, he sat in the ambulance for a while, then went to the hospital. Hopefully he will be okay aswell. More than anything Bryan is upset his first car, which he loved is written off. Technically the accident was Bryan's fault, however the other driver was in the wrong, he said he was setting his cruise control to 80km, for the construction which started 20 km up the road.

Over all we're glad Bryan is alive and okay, cars can be replaced but people can't!
On a happy note- Bryan's already started new car shopping.

Grandpa's 95th + Thanksgiving

October 7th 2007
Last Sunday the Falk family took a little road trip to Lethbridge for the day. We left early Sunday to Uncle Harvey and Aunty Wendy's to celebrate Grandpa's 95th Birthday. We had thanksgiving dinner the same time aswell, then some pie and as a bonus cake too. Aunty Wendy made a really yummy chocolate cake with caramel and peacans in the middle, i'll post up the recipie it was soo good. After visiting for a while we headed on home, but it was a fun little trip. It was good to see everyone especially the man of the hour Grandpa - he's doing great, he's looking real healthy so thats good.

Our visit to Cardston





























Just this Saterday Bryan and I took a drive down to Cardston for our friends wedding. We got in a bit early so we cruised the town of Cardston, which didn't take long at all. Grabbed a bite to eat and headed to the temple to walk around it and take some pictures. I haven't been there in so long I almost forgot just how Beautiful it is. After enjoying the wedding, it was pretty late so we decided to head to lethbridge and stay the night at Uncle Harvey and Aunty Wendy's. Before we left we took one more look at the Temple all light up, and took some more pictures. Later that night while in lethbridge we hung out with Mitch and Ian, some former missionaries; whom are now our good friends. We all had some laughs and even gave a hamburger to a homeless man. It was really fun! So all in all this weekend turned out to be pretty good. Especially being at the temple, I forgot how much I really love it their. Bryan and I can't wait to go back and actually go inside and do some ordaniances.

The Cute things you do


Yesterday after work there was a nice surprize waiting for me on my car. Work had been just the usuall at the hospital- stressfull. I was walking to my car, as I got closer I saw beautiful pink roses all over my windsheild. At first I thought maybe thats not my car.. but luckily it was. Bryan was parked just across the street and was watching my reaction as I got my surprize. It was wonderful. Sadly I didn't have my camera to take a picture so I have no pictures.
