On October 25 (which happens to be mine and Brad’s dating anniversary - this year we’ve been together 9 years!), we took Gwen to a local pumpkin patch. Read the rest of this entry »

Brad and I celebrate our first anniversary today! YAY us! I can’t believe it’s already been a year! It’s just flown by!

We took borrowed a car and drove down to the Norfolk County Fair for the afternoon and had a great time looking at the ridiculously sized squash! I’m currently yearning for my camera cord so I can share the insanity that is an 1100 lb pumpkin. We then went for a fantastic dinner at The Erie Beach Hotel (where myself and both sisters once worked - and it literally hasn’t. changed. a bit. since I worked there, almost 10 years ago!), played mini-golf, walked around town, and stayed overnight at Clonmel Estates - a huuuuge estate that I’ve wanted to stay at ever since I was a little girl! It was the perfect ending to our first year together, and the perfect beginning to the next! I think we’re going to try and visit places in only Ontario for our anniversaries - I think it would be tonnes of fun to pick a different place in Ontario every year to visit!

Crystal from The Song of My Soul tagged me again =) This time it’s for a screenshot of your desktop. So without further ado, here’s the insanity of my desktop currently (it’s been much, much worse):

Can you see the documents on the right at the bottom?

Those are all the documents I currently have open for composing my paper. Ugh.

So. We totally went to The Donkey Sanctuary of Canada. And it was fantastic! A picnic lunch was packed (double-decker P.B.&J, anyone?) and off we set! To see all the photos, just click on my flickr widget in the sidebar!

We played with some donkeys (this one was 37 39? 37 years old!):

We learned about mules (did you know that they’re sterile due to a chromosomal imbalance??):

We sat here for our delicious picnic:

Played some Guitar Hero, went to the mall Chapters:

I cannot get over that picture! That’s a book that folds out into a firetruck =) It’s so fitting because Luke (see pic #1) is a firefighter!! And it showcases exactly what M.A. and I are like in public places … you can dress us up, but you can’t take us out!

Went out for dinner, and then headed to my place to eat some cake. I had a fantastic time, and it was great to see my bestest friend for a whole day!! Thanks for a great time, M.A.! And great suggestion for a fun place to go!
p.s. I’m going to my parents’ tomorrow to spend some wonderful time with my family =) I’m sure there will be lots of good pics of our time together up soon!
