And being without you is like standing at a cement-filled wall with a roll of Yugoslavian nickels and making a wish.

I don’t really have anything specific to write about, but I know that my sisters will be happy to get to work/wake up on a Monday morning and see an update, which motivates me to give it a shot! I am quite sad that the weekend is ending, because I know this week is going to bring me some stress. Kent has subletted his apartment in order to live closer to his new job in Stratford as head chef at a super cool restaurant! I am very excited to live with him and have a place that feels like home, instead of living like a nomad between his tiny bachelor and my parent’s house. Anyways, the subletter moves in on THURSDAY, which means I need to get a move on in finding us a wonderful place to rent that is super cheap so we can save up to buy an even more wonderful place in not too long. Which is extremely difficult when you consider my full time job, brownie group, dance group, yoga and pilates classes…. but I do have Tuesday off which may be my only saving grace.
ANYWAYS. This weekend was a wonderful one. I spent all of Saturday with Leah, we got our hair styled, went out for lunch with our aunt Rosie at Kent’s restaurant, and went to see Michael Buble in concert. He was so funny and fun and great and of course an amazing singer. We were among the youngest ones there but that is because we are old souls! ha. And have fabulous taste in music. He brought out the romantic in all of us, heck even Leah and I held hands for a bit. 
After the concert, we trekked through the snow down Richmond in our heels to a bar to see a bunch of old friends. We specifically wanted to see our friend Simon who is visiting from Edmonton, and shower him with love because he is awesome and the funniest guy alive. All in all….. We could not have planned a better girly day! Being with Leah always makes me feel good about life. I think that we bring out the best in each other - just like the right colour highlights bring out the best colour in your face. Then today, as every Sunday, I spent the day with Kent, and the evening with my sisters Erica and Katelyn, and the best yoga teacher in the world (in my totally unbiased opinion), my cousin Lara.
Last week after seeing 27 Dresses, Erica asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding! I am super excited because of all of the fun things it entails - wedding shows (starting next Sunday!), dress shopping, bachelorette party, and of course the wedding itself.
This is a picture of Leah, our friend Simon, me, and my best friend Michelle from Saturday night. Look how happy Simon makes me!! 
And another picture of us with Simon from a few years ago, this time with our little friend Jason!

Awww…I just got to work and this DOES make me happy!
I saw it this morning at home and got exited that you updated, but said to myself, I’ll save it until I get to work! Yay for blog updates, and weddings!
Congrats on being a bridesmaid!!! That is so exciting:)
I am one in August, and nothing makes me happier! I suppose until we get to be the ones donning the white dresses eh Mic?
Also your comment on me being the best yoga teacher ever makes me more happy than you will ever know!
Love you
I had the best day ever toooo!
Do you remember the day that secnd picture was taken?
We were feeling quite crapulous (read: hungover) and I worked at the Fox from 6am - 3pm and then it was the Pig Producers Barbeque and then we went over to the boys house wearing ridiculous aprons that said “Put pork on your fork.” Fun times!
