Okay...as promised here are some updated pictures. First some pictures of Molly, because she is just so darn cute!!

We have also been working on the front yard and the garage. Hopefully the weather holds out so we can finish. Today it is raining and a chance of snow later tonight :(
I have also been doing some scrapbooking and card making. I haven't finished any scrapbook pages yet, but here are some cards I've made. Well that's all I have for today. Enjoy the pictures and I will keep you updated!!

Falling...

I think it is officially FALL. The leaves are changing and this morning there was frost on my car. That doesn't make this summer girl very happy, but I must admit fall is a very pretty time of year. It also means that I should start thinking about Halloween and Christmas. Oh my! What is a girl to do? Oh and I cooked chili for supper tonight...a very nice fall meal. I promise to post some pictures soon. Molly is getting soooo big, almost 60 pounds. Yeah thats right SIXTY! Well I need to clean the house if I'm going to get to sit down and enjoy Grey's Anatomy tonight.

So I know it has been a while since I updated my blog (SHAME) but we've been really busy. I've been able to cross a few things off of my list. We just got back from visiting Josh's grandparents in Victoria, BC. While we were there we also visited my Aunt and Uncle. We had a great vacation, camped the whole time! We are just about completely sick of camping now, 7 nights of camping in cooler weather (it got down to 8 or 10 degrees some nights) really knocks you out. We saw more of the island than we have before, went walking in places I didn't know existed and drove up island to see a couple of the small towns, very cute! I will put up some pictures when they have been uploaded to our computer. While we were out west we also spent a day in Vancouver. We went back to Stanley Park, which is where Josh proposed to me more than 3 years ago. Can't believe it's been that long. It was nice to go back and it's nice that it's a place that we can afford to go back to!

Before we went to BC we went out on a date to the Galt Museum to see the High Level Bridge exhibit because the bridge is 100 years old this year. It was nice to do something different than going to the movies or having drinks, and I can cross going to a museum off of my list!

I'm hoping that there is still a little bit of nice weather left this year, we didn't really have much of a summer and I'm still craving some warm weather. But I am looking forward to Christmas time this year because then Jocelyn will be home from school for a month, miss her so much! (Love you Joss)

Progress report on the garage is this: The drywall, taping and mudding is almost done, then we are going to paint the walls and the floor. Once painting is done we can put up shelving for all our junk err I mean 'nice things' that are cluttering up our basement and my scrapbooking space.

Well that is it for now. Hopefully it won't be so long before I update again.

I just want everyone to know how much I LOVE my husband!

ME

Hello everyone!!

I guess now that I have finished making my list and I have started working on a few things I should make a proper introduction. My name is Chelsey. I am married to the most wonderful man, my best friend, the LOVE of my life, Josh!! We don’t have any kids but we do have a beautiful chocolate lab named Molly. July 21, 2007 we were married in the most beautiful wedding
and since then we bought a house, completed landscaping,

gone on a few wonderful holidays and got our “little stinker” Molly.

So much can happen in such a short amount of time. TWO YEARS!! Wow. This blog will serve as a way for me to document our lives for our family and friends. It will also allow me to get what is in my head out and to allow one more avenue for my creative juices to flow through.

It seems that in our world today people get caught up only in things that affect them and give no thought to what is going on around them. Sometimes this is simply because everyone is so busy, other times it is because people have become set in their ways, afraid of change and of too much human contact. I think it is so important to be connected to people, whether those people are your immediate family, your extended family, your friends or strangers. I want to be connected!

Have a wonderful day!!
