Summer in Calgary

Well, Things around our house are slowing getting back to normal. We have been in the new house for almost two months, and it is starting to feel like home. We finally got the garage unpacked. It was full of boxes that hadn't been touched since the move! Matt and I spent a weekend unpacking boxes, throwing stuff out, and organizing the last of our stuff. We bought a shelving system for the garage, just to get some of our storage off the ground, and boxed everything properly. It was a really big job, but I'm really glad we finally got it done! We have also bought the baseboards, and painted them, but we haven't put them in the basement yet. One of Matt's friends has a nail gun and a table saw that we can borrow and hopefully make the job a little easier.


Matt and I went for a nice dinner for our 6 month anniversary. If it hadn't been for my mom, neither Matt nor I would have remembered! We went to the Red Water Grill and had a really nice meal. This is definately something that Matt and I stopped doing since we bought the house, and I really miss going for long dinners!


Matt has been extremely busy this summer. He has been working 6 days a week, while trying to study for the physics class he is taking, and study for the MCAT. We are going on holidays in August, and we are already looking forward to it. Molly has been learning how to swim, so it will be great to take her to the lake and see if she can do it there!

The infamous Jarod Ruff has returned to Calgary. It looks like he will be spending the majority of the summer between Calgary and Medicine Hat, and will not be returning to his travels until early fall of this year. It is really nice to see him and Jane again!

Hope this finds everyone enjoying their summer,
