Well for 2 days now we have been battling extreme wind here on the prairies. Wow! I'm sure sales in hairspray have skyrocketed. People out here say this is a "normal" Alberta spring...and apparently any type of weather is expected...even snow!! We woke up 2 days ago to a full cover of snow with some fairly deep drifts due to the wind. It's crazy!! Today there is still evidence of the snow on the ground but some of it is melting so thats good.
Can't wait for summer!! Atleast we think it's coming..lol

Easter
Well, we are convinced that we are bad bloggers. So many times in the past few weeks we have discussed that we should write something but still haven't.
Now tonight (actually this morning)I seem to be wide awake and figured ok....just write!
So, today was Easter.
I'm thankful to God for the gift of His Son and the fact that Christ would die for me still is so overwhelming at times, but I find great peace in knowing that He is alive and amongst us today. Other than that reflection, it did not seem much like Easter. Although the sun was shining, I found it difficult today to celebrate. The joys of being employed amongst the retail sector completely hit head on this morning as David put on his trusty work shirt and headed to Totem for the day. Yes, we know that everyone needs building supplies on Easter Sunday......and on Good Friday...grrr...ok...yes, I'm being very sarcastic here but I missed not celebrating today with my spouse and family!! It was a very long, dull, lonely, boring day.
We start a "new" week soon. I always like the word "New" it symbolises a fresh start and excitement.And even though it's Monday and yes, we both are working we look forward to having Tuesday off together.
