Campers: Nature's way of feeding mosquitoes.

Pictures as promised. These are pictures Mary took, I am still waiting for the ones Jen took, but I think these should be enough for now!

And we can walk down to the ocean, And sit with the rising sun.

This weekend was our second trip camping with the Turnbull gang. To be honest I was a little more hesitant this time, because the weather has been so finicky and bizarre I was expecting the worst. Fortunately, I was wrong, and the weather co-operated with us the whole time. We went to celebrate Harrison's 3rd birthday, Jen and Joanne's 35th and I guess to kiss summer goodbye!
Friday night was pretty interesting, I expected it to be low key, since we got in so late, and set up in the dark.... Turns out I was wrong again! I wont get into incriminating details (ha) about why we almost got evicted off the campsite at 3am and why Kevin gave us all a "I'll turn this car around" kind of talk afterward, what I will say is that what did happen bonded us all together even more and I felt very much a welcome part of the family, and it was pretty fun.
Another weekend in our dining tent, filled with family fun and lots to drink, all together a pretty swell time. I'll post pictures later when I haven't had half a glass of sour red wine and feel like my eyelids are made of concrete.

Good night lovely blogger darlings.

"I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter"

New Taylor Swift song rocking my soul right now. That line couldn't describe things more perfectly.

I have lots to update! I will start with last Monday!
My wonderful super stellar boyfriend surprised me Monday evening, by planning a celebration for me, in anticipation of me getting my braces off on Tuesday.
I came home to a bottle of red wine, special chocolate truffles, Jack Johnson on the record player and dinner at Aroma! Can you believe this guy? I still can't believe how lucky I am!
Dinner was incredible, the whole date night was outstanding.
A wonderful, amazing Monday evening.

Tuesday was the big day! I finally got my braces removed forever! It feels pretty weird even now, and I still haven't gotten used to seeing myself in the mirror, but regardless of that, it is still pretty wicked to be braces free! I no longer look like a 14 year old! Yippie!

More updates to follow with pictures!

Things that made me smile today.

Tell me this isn't exactly how you imagine Colin and I would have looked together at this age! What do you mean you don't spend your free time imagining things like that? ha ha.

Every time I read this, I laugh - a lot.

I think we all know who this is directed at.

You're so money, you don't even know how money you are

In case you missed it on all my other social networking devices, or couldn't hear me screaming "VEGAS BABY VEGAS" all night, then let me update you....

After several attempts and date changes we are finally doing it! We are finally hitting the City of Sin, and what better reason to go, than to celebrate my 25th birthday!?!

I didn't think anything could beat last years celebrations, with Louis CK, David Cross, Nuit Blanche (sort of) and two nights in Toronto...but I am going to make a bet that this year will take the cake!
Makes officially becoming 25 a little easier to swallow.

I wont be too obnoxious here, by bubbling over with Vegas babbles...I'll save that for when we return ha ha.
