Lounging around in our room after bathing the girls. Nothing like a movie night before bedtime!

I win a gold medal! I entered this scrapbook page in the Freestyle Scrapping category in the Silhouette Winter games, and lo and behold.. I WON the gold medal! What does this mean? $50 to spend at the silhouette store! Happy day!

This week our world has turned completely white with fog, cloud cover, and frost covering EVERYTHING in sight! Beautiful.

Little miss J cuddling with GIANT teddy. I wonder how long it will be until she out grows him?

Today, Maelle Ricker became Canada's first woman to win a gold medal in a Canadian Olympics! The first person to win a gold medal on Canadian soil was Alexandre Bolideau who won gold in Men's Moguls on the 14th! So proud to be Canadian!

Today's photo of the day is going to be a shot of an article that will be published in a National Business magazine in which one of my photographs will be featured! SOO exciting for me. I was able to photograph a friend and his boss for an article about their business. I couldn't be happier! I don't want to include a shot of the article here, for obvious reasons.

I love our downtown buildings in the winter - so quaint and cozy. This is one of our old churches on a cloudy, frosty morning.

Meet Lyndon's new friends and co-workers from India! Brave souls to come to Canada in the middle of winter :) Lyndon spread the love with some chocolately valentine's for these guys. It was their first!

Toonie Tuesday was the perfect chance to take the girls to see "Twilight Saga: New Moon"! They loved it - even if (or because) it kept them up WAY past their bedtime.

I couldn't believe it when I saw this scrapbooking celebrity who left a comment on my blog! I've had a blog crush on Heidi Swapp FOREVAH and the idea that she took time to check out MY blog AND comment? Oh, happy, happy day!

A wonderful family in the ward invited our family over to dinner! I had a terrible migraine, so I missed out, but the kids and Lyndon had an awesome time playing with their boys, cuddling their baby girl, and enjoying an amazing chicken dinner. They were even kind enough to send a plate home for me!

Spent the day making some fun valentines for the girls' classmates. I love making personalized cards!

February 5, 2010
First evening out with this cute couple from our ward. They are both a tonne of fun, and totally adorable together. Here's to more nights out in the future!

Red, white, and pink day was super easy to pull off around our place. I sure love these munchkins!

A 32" new (to us) TV! And what better way to break it in than by watching shark week on dvd? Watch out, JJ!

Goal: NOT to drink my calories! There are WAY too many yummy things to EAT that use up my calorie count to be drinking them away. Water - we have a love/hate relationship, but I need you. So, like it or not - you're my new best friend!

Lyndon is so lucky to have friends who spoil him on his 33rd birthday! He loves sushi, and being treated to an all you can eat place is even better. Thanks, Rob! (and yay for camera phones that are handy when being surprised with lunch!)
