One random Friday Night





A couple weeks ago Bryan and I had lots of engery for a late Friday night and the weather was really nice. So we went out with our camera to take some pictures. We went to Nose Creek Park.. since there is really no place in Airdrie to go to take pictures. And since I don't have a Flash for my camera I just played with the lights around... Some of the pictures turned out pretty cool..and it was really fun.

Edmonton











This past Friday Bryan and I decided to take a little road trip to Edmonton for the night. So we booked a hotel and got in the car. We had just filled up with gas and decided to take the back road to crossfield and then to the highway.. well we had just left the superstore parking lot and what happens... we get a speeding ticket. When we got to our hotel dropped our bags and headed out to drive around and see if we could find something to do... sadly.. we didn't find much. So we went back to the hotel to go swimming at the water park in our hotel.. More sad news we got down there and found out that the swimming pool was only open till 9:30. So instead we went to the Edmonton Temple to take some pictures. I didn't realize just how small the Edmonton Temple is. It was hard to take a full picture of it since the chapel is sooo close to it. But it was nice being there, and getting to take some pictures. And there was a really nice sunset while we were there. The next day we went to the water park for a bit then headed to West Ed Mall. We spent most the day shopping and than headed home.. . I will admit I got pretty spoiled while shopping. It was nice getting some new stuff. Here are a couple pictures of the Temple...

Planting Flowers






I know Bryan and I both swore we would never have flowers at our house.. Well that changed. Our neighbour has tons of flowers in their front yard, and our house was starting to look neglected. So instead of doing the usual flowerbed in the front of the house with bricks around it ( not that there is anything wrong with it.. but our Whole block has it ). So we got some cute big pots to put on either side of our steps, with a bunch of flowers to put in it. The plan was to put all the flowers we bought into the pot.. but when we were planting it, our neighbour pointed out that flowers need some room to grow so they wouldn't all fit in there.. So for now the rest of the flowers are still not planted.. and sadly one has already died :( Clearly we're not flower people.
