A discovery while away for the day.

So today me and my mom decided to take the day and relax because I felt it necessary to take a little vacation and get my mind of everything and just have fun. I feel like I haven't had fun in awhile. So we took the day and went into Calgary to do some shopping. And by the way the Gap now sells Converse shoes! I was shocked because they are the most comfortable shoes ever and I wear mine every single day and own like five pairs!! But while in the kids gap we saw they had little converse shoes from size 1 all the way to adult sizes! They were too cute!

So we met up with Ashley and we discovered something very unique in the city of Calgary. A one stop wedding strip mall. First they had a bridal shop for the bride and a Tux shop for the groom...must haves for any wedding. Then next door was a hair salon, and a beach wear store. Then there was a travel agent. I mean how convienent when planning your wedding is that? The only thing missing was a caterer, florist and photographer and they would have been set. It was pretty funny, we had a good laugh.

So spending the day with Ashley was quite the adventure. We went to the malls, we hit Ikea and had lunch together with our moms. Then it was time to take ashley home. Now normally this should only take like twenty minutes but we decided to take Country Hills Boulevard to her house in the NW. The trip from Ikea to her house took a whole 53 minutes! Almost an hour...yes we had fun complaining about the traffic and seeing part of the north Calgary I had never seen before and parts I had seen many times before having lived there.

It was a fun day and I have harrassed Ashley to update her blog too. But with the whole facebook craze, who has time to blog anymore...heehee

Well as much as I would love to be sitting on a beach somewhere this summer, It looks like I may have to settle for a smaller trip somewhere closer to home in the time I have off between work and school which starts again for me on tuesday. I am taking an introduction to psychology class.....should be interesting.

Well I am tired, so I am off to bed!

You forgot that there wasn't a church or someone to marry you in the strip mall. Oh... that were some good times.
