Welcome

Well hello everyone




After many months of my cousin Jodi encouraging me to start up my own blog I finally decided to do it! So this is my first attempt to this so bare with me!



I will start with telling you a bit about myself and my wonderful family. Both my husband Mike and I grew up here in Airdrie our entire lives. He grew up in Airdrie with his older brother Al and parents tom and Sandra. Where I grew up on a farm just west of Airdrie with my parents Bob and ellen and my twin sister Careen and 2 younger sisters Ashley and Jacelyn. On the same farm right across the road lived my my mom's parents Ross and Margaret, where Mike, our 20 month old daughter Justice and I live now as of April 2009. Living on the farm means a lot to both Mike and I but especially to my grandparents who just didn't want to see strangers living in this house let alone on the same farm as my parents. Our farm house is around 90 years old as my grandparents moved it off another farm about 45 years ago or so. Gran and Gramps did do renovations about 20 years ago so there are some work ahead of us....in the future!



It is very nice being back home; meaning back on the farm but also back to Airdrie. Mike and I moved to Grande Prairie 3 years ago since Mike had a job opportunity. We miss our dear friends Mike, Sherry and Jadyn Anderson especially but many more as well. Mike Anderson (aka Mikerbuddy) and my Mike have known each other since they were 2 years old living on the same block in Airdrie. When Mike and I got married in Maui 4 1/2 years ago Mike and Sherry gladly joined us where Sherry and I hit it off and became life long friends just like our husbands! A year later we decided to moved to GP where Mikerbuddy and Sherry one of the reasons to move. But the coolest thing was when we had our daughters so close together. Jadyn and Justice are 5 months apart so even though there is an 8 hour drive between us we hope that our girls will be life long friends like their mommy and daddy's are.
