firsts...

For the first time EVER I was able to talk my way out of a speeding ticket! I have now been pulled over 3 times and I always hear people getting out of it, but I have never been so lucky - until yesterday afternoon that is. So last month I got a doozy of a ticket and I was just beginning to recover when I was pulled over yesterday for going 90 in a 70 zone. As the cop was making his way to my car I started laughing uncontrollably at the irony. I have been SO careful ever since my last ticket and I just was simply not paying attention. So the cop approaches my car, and this is the conversation that followed...

Cop: What is so funny?
Me: Oh nothing, I've just had bad luck with cops lately.
Cop: You've had bad luck or you have a heavy foot?
Me: Oh maybe a little bit of both!
Cop: Well since you seem to have a good attitude I'm going to let you off with a warning this time.
Me: A warning about what?
Cop: Very funny. Be careful and slow down.
Me: Thank you, I really appreciate it, and I will.

Honestly, it was a huge relief. He was the first nice cop I've dealt with and he was also VERY handsome, I'd like to think my cute smile and innocent eyes were the key to my non-ticket, but I think he was just feeling gracious! I still drove away with that nervous feeling though!!

husband and wife...

Late late last night Tilly, Katie and I drove back from Jason and Nadines wedding. I was a beautiful ceremony and reception that truly captured their love for one another. I was exhausted, but it was a great time and I was glad to be a part of their special day.

Spending the weekend in Lethbridge also brought back many memories. It was great to catch up with old friends, sleep in my old house and remember the good times we had. It was really strange going back and knowing that chapter of my life is over.

Since I was in the wedding, I don't really have any pictures, but once I get some, I'll be sure to post them!
