Spring is in the air!!

I Can feel it in my bones.... ( that's my favorite song right now) Spring!!! The snow is slowly starting to melt, we have the screen door open and I am totally itching to get in my yard! I registered for my ladies league golf on Friday, and our first match is on May 3rd. Tino and will have to hit some balls in the golf dome before that happens, I'm a little rusty and he needs to try out his new clubs. Here is a picture of my yard.



All the snow is off our deck. We are starting to Bar B q more and more, I'm so happy about that because its always more healthy and it tastes so good. I"m sick of cooking inside and always being cooped up in the evenings. I cannot wait to just chill in our yard, that is one thing we LOVE about owning a house. We really missed out on that before, both of us have been in condos or apartments for the last 10 years so it so nice to get our groove back with a sunny West facing yard.


This weekend I met my best friend Tanis in Banff. She had a conference at the Rimrock Hotel. The location is gorgeous. Here is the view I woke up to with the BEST COFFEE EVER!!



Isn't it gorgeous?? We spent Friday evening with dinner at the Saltlik and ended it with reading magazines and lots of laughs. That girl brings out the crazy in me, I LOVE her free spirit and good heart, we are still are best friends after 27 years. Alot has changed but we still stick by eachother. I'm sad she lives in Edmonton but we have seen alot of eachother considering she has a family!

We were supposed to ski on Saturday but instead we walked the streets of banff, spent a fortune on chocolate and came home. I bought 2 really funny toques for Tino and I, I could not wait to get home and put it on him and he LOVES it! It suits him too but like I said spring is in the air so we don't have a lot of time to wear them!





Tanis and I drank some good wine and enjoyed eachother's company and she left this morning, I miss her when I don't see her but we talk ALOT!!


Today is my favourite day..SUNDAY. We are going to Bar B Q tonight, and I am going to try and copy Saltliks Berry crumble recipe. We are also watching the hockey Game, Gonna go for a nice long walk, look for a beach vacation over Easter and enjoy our Sunday evening. Tomorrow I am back to work but only for 3 shifts because i took this weekend. Its been a nice little break!

I will let you all now how the crumble turned out!
