freckles' diary

Last night Jordan gave me a leg and foot full of beautiful tattoos while we listened to classical music. Pretty great way to spend an evening I would say ;).

This morning my sweet husband (who is not a coffee drinker at all) made me my morning coffee while I was being lazy and pretending to sleep on the couch. It was perfect :) 

We made a quick trip back to Kamloops for the weekend to see the Jones' and so that Jordan could get a few skydives in. We spend most of the day on Saturday at the Jones' house. They have the most amazing backyard and the weather was beautiful. Scarlet is 21 months old now, and she has got the sweetest personality! She is so fun and hilarious, and Jordan couldn't get enough kisses and cuddles from her. This trip I finally got to meet new baby Janey too! (she was born on April 26th) She was napping when I had my camera out, so I didn't get any pictures of her this time. She is so sweet too and has just the tiniest bit of red hair. We can't wait to see her and Scarlet grow up and become friends with our little babies (whenever they come along haha).

I love baking (especially the eating part after), but it sure heats the house up on a warm day. I'm just sweating over here after taking these out of the oven. Yikes.

baking cookies :)

I wrote my final board exam on Saturday and decided to take the bus back to Kamloops for a few days to visit my family. It rained the first couple of days I was here (I was hoping I had left that kind of weather in Vancouver), so my mom and I just did a little shopping, cooking and hanging out at home. It was perfect and a much needed break. But, today the sun is shining and the sky is blue! I woke up with a sore throat, so I am hoping that spending the day outside in the fresh air will help. I love being here, but I miss my husband dearly and am looking forward to seeing him again tomorrow!!

I'm not really sure how it happened. I seem to have blinked my eyes and all of a sudden I'm closer to 30 than I am to 20. I definitely don't feel that old, but I look at the year on my drivers license and it is true. I am now 26 years old. So far my 20's have been amazing. I started dating my husband when I was only 20, got engaged when I was 23 and married to him when I was 24. I completed 5 years of University and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts with distinction from Uvic and lived with my best friend while doing it. I stepped out of my comfort zone and travelled to Nicaragua. More recently my husband and I made the move to Vancouver and are living in our first home in the most beautiful part of the city. We are both going to school and trying to keep our relationship strong while keeping up with our busy schedules.  Even though I may be closer to 30 than I am to 20,  I still feel like the 20 year old in this picture Jordan and I took together the summer we s...
