And So It Continues...

Well, we are all moved in! Ben n I absolutely love our new place! Its so open and we have huge windows! And no one above us! It is heaven!

Well Calgary has been hit with a pretty crazy winter s

torm! There is tons of snow and the tempature has been staying around -20 - -30. It is chilly! Ben hasnt been able to drive his car because he has no snow tires and he cant plug in! So he has been driving me to work everyday. It works:)

Two weeks ago Ben n I went to Banff. He went there for a staff retreat back in May and

the hotel they were booked in overbooked them so they got free night stays! So we spent two nights up there and it was beautifully relaxing. Not a care in the world! We explored Banff and enjoyed a delicious dinner at the Grizzly House Steak & Cheese Fondue. Ive have never had such amazing fondue in my life! It is really a cool place. It start back in the 70's or something as a disco! But then the laws in Alberta changed and they had to serve food to be able to serve alcohol, so they cut a hole in the wall to the fast food store next door and ordere

d food all night! Now it is a Steak & Cheeses fondue place - everything is wood and

there is a phone at every table! You can call any table you want. It was a great place. I recommend it for anyone who is going to Banff!

Ive been dreaming since I lived in Scotland and met some people that inspired me, to one day own a Digital SLR camera and improve on my photography skills. And finally the day came after saving to buy one!

Then the next weekend was moving day. Mark, Bens younger brother, flew out from Abbotsford to help and see us and Ryan, Bens older brother, drove down (even in the snow) from Edmonton. We had 4 guys in total and 2 trucks. It only took 2 trips. It was great! We only have to give the keys back for our old place Nov 30th so I have time to clean it... which I have no desire to do:)

Even the unpacking is still waiting. I just want to get it done so I can start the Christmas decorating!!

Our kitchen is quite a bit smaller and Im trying to figure out how to fit food in it. So all the food is sitting in boxes. Oy! Its a job Im dreading to tackle along with all the other boxes sitting in our den!

Here we are at Banff Falls

It snowed early in the morning and looked so pretty.

This is at the Fairmont Lodge. So beautiful and extravagant! This is the view from one of their balconies.

And here is the main street of Banff. Gorgeous and chilly!
