My favourite boy and my favourite hobby.

in Calgary, life, love, skiing, winter

To start off, a quote from a previous blog of mine:

“Although, I have never been one to keep things short. Except for skirts. And relationships.”

Well, that is no longer true because I don’t wear skirts at all now that I live in a city where it was -37c (-34f) this week and also because Mr. Leah and I celebrated our four (4!) year anniversary this past week.

To celebrate we took the day off work on Thursday and headed to the mountains to go snowboarding at Sunshine Village. Other than the fact that it was incredibly cold, it was a great day. The sun was shining and we practically had the mountains to ourselves. Uh-mazing.

For my birthday Mr. Leah got me a camera, and I have tried to become better at taking pictures so that’s a good thing for all of you! (Better = quantity, NOT quality!)

GondolaIn the gondola, freezing our buns off. Look at my frozen hair!

MountainsThere were moments when I looked around and just asked myself “Is this real?” It was so beautiful.

I asked myself “is this real?” every day when I worked there! It was my own little piece of heaven. Happy anniversary to both of you, I hope you celebrate many more!

Wish we could have been there at the same time! Thanks, I hope for many more too : )

congrats Leah and Tim! Looks like it was an AMAZING day! How do you choose which resort you go to?

Other than the frigid cold -30 weather, it WAS the perfect day! I don’t know how we choose … I am partial to Sunshine. Tim wants to go to Norquay next time, and Lake Louise is juuust a bit too far. It’s pretty random, and there is no real order. I think Kicking Horse will have to happen soon too.

Happy Anniversary! I’ve never been to Sunshine Village, only to Lake Louise.
What kind of camera did you get?

Thanks Rachel! He got me a Sony camera, just a little point and shoot. Nothing fancy, but it is pretty and red : ) I am no master photographer, I am for quantity and not quality when it comes to taking photos.My ComLuv Profile

Happy Anniversary to you and Tim!!! What a nice way to celebrate. I love Timbo like a brother (as you know!) and miss you both lots! I’m hoping for many, many, many more anniversaries between you too.

Thanks Mickers! I think some people in this family love Tim more than they love me! But that’s okay, because sometimes I think he lov’es you guys more than he loves me. Lot’s more anniversaries to come, I am sure : )My ComLuv Profile
