Matt and I went to visit our friends Aaron and Cheryl in Cambelton. We went with Pat and Ashely. We had such a ball. We got there late friday night and then we got up Saturday Morning and Cheryl and Aaron made French Toast on their camp grill. Then we all set out to climb Sugarlaof Mountain. It was great until we actually got to the steep incline. It was hard for me but Matt pushed me and I actually made it to the top. Once we got there, A man was taking pictures and video clips for a brochure and also a TV show that Rogers in doing. So I am going to be on TV this fall. While we were getting our pictures taken the manager was telling us about all the work they had just finished on their mountain biking trail. They had people come from Whistler to create the trails and they attached bike holders to the ski lift. Matt thought it looked cool. But none of them brought their bikes. Pat asked if he had any and I told him that he would make their day if he could get them some. He said it would be no problem. We met them back at the lodge after lunch and then we all got tickets to ride the lift for the rest of the day and we got five bikes for 6 people. SO we had to share a little. The bike that Matt drove was worth $4500. It was really fun and extremely exciting. After all our photo shoots were done we all headed back for a much needed shower and had hobo pies for supper. We were all in bed by 10:00. We were so wiped out. Then we went to church sunday and afterwards visited Aaron's work. He works for a playground designing company and they also design steel bumpers for ATV's. It was pretty interesting. Then we set out for the 3.5hr drive home. We stopped in Grand Falls on the way and visited the gorge and then we got home. I went to bed early so that I would be up in time. Stacy is on her vacation and I am opening the daycare for the rest of the week. SO I have to be there at 7:00am. hehe. I actually dont mind at all. I had a lot of fun at work today.... its been awhile. Anyway. I think that is enough. Enjoy the slideshow. Luv you all!

Another day
This is going to be a short post because I have to get back to work shortly. THings here are going pretty well. Matt and I are planning a big grocery shopping adventure tonight because we have absolutely no food. Last night we had leftovers and salsa, so that wasnt too bad. It was really hard to make my menu because we dont have any potatoes left :( it is the saddest thing ever and it would be way to wierd to buy some so we have other things on our menu hehe.
Plus Mom and Dad are coming over on the weekend so we need somethng to be able to feed them too. I am so excited for the weekend and my boss gave me Monday off and paid since things are going so well with me working here. That made me feel really great.
I will try to write again, but I really should get back to work.
I love you all and I really hope you have an excellent week. Have fun watching the olympics.
Love Amanda

ok... ok
I think it has been quite awhile since I have posted. But things are going well. Normal summer time stuff happening here. It has been a really chilly rainy week and kind of dismal. But all in all things have been going pretty good.
Matt was on call on Tuesday due to the high rivers and they had to be on call to take pictures and measurments of any washed out culverts. He was one of the only teams that did not get called out so he stayed home and emptyed our bag of rotten fruit fly infested potatoes. yay! I was wondering what smelled in there.
Tomorrow Matt and I are celebrating our second anniversary. Its not really until Monday but we thought it might be easier this way. Can you believe that it has already been two years ago?? Matt said that he is going to make eggs and toast for breakfast. Im excited already.
I still have to make him a card. It has been so hard since he is always home I cant just sit there and make a card while he is there .. haha
Anyway. I should get back to work I just wanted to give you all a little update. Love ya!
