Canada trip '09

I'm back from Canada! It was fun. John and I caught some pretty good keepers, and it didn't rain too, too much. Thursday and Friday it did some, but other than that it was great. I had fun spending so much time with John. Fishing, camp-firing, everything. It's almost weird to be back!

On the way home, I decided to stop at my house for some (clean) clothes. We had Daniel (a nephew of his) with us, so we decided to take him fishing on the pond down at the farm. He caught a bigger fish in about 10 minutes of fishing than we did the whole week of Canada! It was awesome to see how happy he was!

Later this week we're going to take more of the little ones down to the farm. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing to take Daniel, so we decided we really need to take the others as well. All I can say is that this family I'm marrying into is simply amazing compared to - well.. others. We'll leave it at that for now.

Mini Cooper

Last Friday (July 3rd) I purchased a brand spankin' new car - something I've wanted and been eying up for a while. Yes.. a Mini Cooper! It's sweet and so fun to drive. It's a 6 speed, has heated seats, heated mirrors, and heated washer jets. It's got color lighting all through out the car, which the lights go anywhere from blue-purple-pink-orange-red. It's loaded and I love it! I originally was going for the British Racing Green or the Horizon Blue, but when I walked in the showroom, I saw this little number. Needless to say, I fell in love with it. This particular shade is Nightfire Red. I have yet to name her, and suggestions are welcome! :)
