Home, home on the range...

The best part about being sent to work in Canada has had little to do with the work...nope nothing at all actually. Its that I have finally had the chance to visit my family, who I haven’t seen since we moved across the big pond over 14 months ago! This past weekend was brilliantly jam packed with great times because my mom came to spend three days with me in Vancouver...we had a fantastic time at the Alberta Ballet dedicated to Elton John, trying on my very first wedding dresses, shopping around the city and of course just relaxing and catching up over a glass of wine or two. Its not all that often that I get my mama all to myself and i enjoyed every minute of hogging her!

We met up for dinner with my Grandpa and Ann one night in Burnaby. I love how my mom lights up when she spends time with her dad! He can always put a smile on your face with his silly antics. Aren’t these pictures gorgeous?!

 
 

  

This is the farm in Ft. Langley where my mom spent her teenage days. The house is ancient and has so much character. My grandpa still keeps the yard looking picture perfect.

Melly and I had fun 
out there last weekend
wandering the property
for old times sake!

This weekend coming up marks my last weekend in Canada until we move back next year! My beautiful friend Brittany is flying out this Friday to spend the weekend with me and we have plenty of fun in store, hopefully the rain stays away until the weekend is over! 

 

Without a doubt I’ve had so much time to catch up with loved ones during my four weeks in B.C. but it’s these long week nights spent in this lonely old hotel room that i just want to be back with my love enjoying our days in the sunshine!! I’m counting down the sleeps (9!) till we are back together again...and off on another peaceful staycation in Byron Bay...what better way to get over the jet lag than to lay by the ocean listening to the sounds of the waves crashing into shore...ahhh!

Thanks for the fabulous visit mama!
