Vancouver 2010

The world is watching Vancouver as we host the Olympics in this very warm and beautiful weather (although not so good for snow!) - And Lucas and I have been enjoying the fun going on in the city.

The Olympics are also a good reason for Ash & Brent to come out for a visit too, which has been nice! Us ladies were able to enjoy pedicures this morning too in celebration of all our birthdays : )  I will be going to see Men's Curling tomorrow night (not that I'm a curling fan, but I'm a Canadian fan and its an Olympic event so I'm in!)

We took the bus into town... took a ride in a bobsled... had some Heineken at the Holland Heineken House, and did lots of walking and transit!

Events of January

January has flown by! We celebrated my 23rd Birthday this month, which was mostly taken up by tests and interviews, but we were able to enjoy a nice dinner with Mom and Kevan and watch a movie when we got home.
I am still job searching and so is Lucas - we both have more prospects and each of us are onto our second interview for a position.  We are just trusting that God is in control and hope find something soon! So much seems to be up in the air so we look forward to being settled and know our schedule :)

In January we had an Olympic Launch party with the Abbotsford Execs - it was a lot of fun, with an amazing dinner (steak you could cut with a butter knife!), WII sports on the big screen, and a 'martini louge.' Here are some pictures:


Lucas had another "Book of Records" JR. High event last week, back by popular demand. For the first challenge/fear factor, it was a race to see who could drink a cup of blended happy mean (cheeseburger, fries and drink!) - no one finished and the consensus was "it tastes like that back of your mouth after you throw up." (and it smelt terrible too!)  More records were recorded into the book!
