A great weekend!!

How great of a feeling is it when you have such a great weekend. Unfortunately Cam and I spent a lot of money over the course of three days, but in the end it was all worth it. Our weekend started with a few drinks with some friends of ours out at West Edmonton Mall. Pretty relaxing environment and good company always makes for a good evening.

Saturday we woke up early because we knew we had a lot of things that we wanted to accomplish throughout the day. First we went to Sears to do up a little gift registry for the wedding. I mostly did it for my shower because people have been asking my mom where we were registered for gifts, and the truth is, is that I don't want gifts I rather have gift cards from places like Sears, or Home Depot because we have everything that we need really, but there are a few costly items that we want. Oh well, so after being harassed by my mom for a while I decided to do it. It wasn't as painful as Cam and I thought it was going to be. Which is good. After we completed that task we were off to get some stuff for me for my new bike. I needed a helmet, but I ended up getting a camelback as well. Cam also needed a new bike pump for at home. So after that we went to go and get Charlie and oil change, which ended up taking longer than anticipated only because we had the fuel filter changed as well. SO he is a very happy little car!! Once we were finished with Mr. Lube we went over the Independent Jewelers to pick out our wedding bands. I won't divulge what the bands look like only because it will be a surprise to those at the wedding ;o) They also polished up my engagement ring, so it sparkles again!! We then went home and had some lunch then we were off to pick up my new bike. Once we got to my cousins house we sat out on the beach and visited for a little bit, then it was on our way home to take our dog out for a walk. On our way back from our walk we ran into a very nice elder man. I didn't realize how long we were there talking to him. But I felt good after we left because he lives by himself with his dog, so I am sure the human interaction he received from Cam and myself made his night :o) Once we got home we were both bagged so it was pretty much chill and watch tv then off to bed.

Sunday started just as early as Saturday because I wanted to get to Costco before the craziness started that usually transpires on a Sunday morning there. Once we finished there we went to Save on Foods to finish up the rest of our shopping, we then donated $20.00 to the Breast Cancer Foundation and we got two hotdogs, and 2 pops in exchange. Not to bad of a deal if you ask me ;o) Anyways so once we completed that we went home and unloaded groceries and then got our stuff together and went out for a 1.5 hour bike ride. My butt sure is sore today from it, but it was worth it. Cam and I rode around and we chatted about some big life changes that are going to be going on with us soon enough. Once we got home we packed up our stuff for supper and headed over to my sisters and Ryans place for a bbq. It was a perfect way and supper to end our fantastic weekend.

I am looking forward to many more weekends full of events that Cam and I get to do together. This will be our first summer together full time. He is usually out fighting fires by now. At first I worried that I would get sick of him being around, only because I am so accustom to him being gone and having to do things by myself, but after this weekend I am very excited to see what will happen this summer.
