The cat in Swift Current


We are now in a town called Swift Current. There is this cat that is hanging out around our hotel room. Every time we take Sadie out she looks for the darn thing. Today Toby wanted to see if Sadie would play with the cat. Or more interesting if the cat would be brave enough to play with Sadie. They actually got along pretty well for just meeting and being a cat and a dog.
They actually did well. This is them playing. The cat was really interested in Sadie and Sadie really liked chasing the cat around.

Look how sad they were when we kicked the cat out. They just sat like that for a long time. What is even more sad is that this was the most exciting thing that has happened to us in about 2 months.

CRAZY SUMMER update

I feel that ever since Toby and I got married our life together has been one crazy ride and this summer is no exception.

Our summer started out in Fort McMurry. Dirty, smelly but super successful. Then is was off to Grande Prairie. Nice townhouses, was cleaner and not as successful but still really successful. Then we had no more area so we started to travel...BOO. Since the beginning of the year Toby and I have lived in 10 different cities.

We lived in a town called Bonnyville for a while. Leave it to Canada to name their towns and cities and Provence's the weirdest names. But we were staying in a Best Western in Bonnyville and it was awesome (for a hotel), They made us cookies everyday. And they let us use the breakfast room at night to play games and they even let Sadie run around in there while we played. It was awesome. So this one day I was just laying around and talking to Verizon...(LOVE the cell plans they have up here...NOT) and there was a knock at the door. Toby was weird about me answering it while I was still on the phone. But when I answered it was the guy from the front desk with flowers. Toby had sent me flowers for our anniversary. I totally forgot (I still get crap for it). I even had to get out a 2006 calender to check. I am so bad. But I got the front desk guy to bake some cookies at midnight for us so I kind of made up for it.

So now it is uber slow and it is wearing on us and all the office. They are wanting to move again. So wahoo for Pinnicle this year.

So for the second we are in Calgary and we live in the ghetto, but at least we are not living in a hotel so we are happier but we are totally ready to go home.
