FOOD!!!

Another fun day with our awesome fun friends. Every time we go to the Harkers (Our Best Friends we have made in Lloydminster) We are treated to a new meal we have never had before and it always turns out delicious. I am a very picky eater and have a hard time trying new things, but because I liked these guys so much I did not have the guts to not try all the cool different meals they have made for us. Well I am so glad that I did not have the guts to say no because once again I devoured a delicious meal from the Harkers. Let's see they have introduced us to Sushi, Curry, Tempura, Rice wraps ( I don't remember there real name but man were they good), the best funeral potatoes ever, and tonight Cheese fondu. I can't wait to see and taste what other delicious meals they are going to introduce us to.


Here is a picture of the night we made Sushi and Tempura for the first time

CARVING FUN!!!!!

Every year I anticipate the master piece my husband is going to carve out of a big orange round pumpkin. Once again he has amazed me with his amazing pumpkin carving skills. I have attempted twice in the past and have failed miserably every time so I have decided to take on the roll of cleaning the pumpkin seeds and getting them ready for our tradition of watching a scary movie and chowing down on Halloween candy and Pumpkin Seeds. Here are some fun picks of our fun night.

WHAT A GAME!!!!!

Who knew that the Lakeland College Rustlers Men's basketball team could put on a show good enough for the NBA. This year they have a team full of men that can jump. In the first half they scored 58 points and made I would have to say about 12 to 15 dunks. 2 which were the most amazing alley ops I have ever seen. I think are date night calender is already full this year as we plan to hit all of there home games. Seriously anyone living in Lloyd that read's my blog (Royall, Jen, Lara) even if you don't love Basketball you will want to go it was that amazing.

BACK TO LIFE, BACK TO REALITY!!!

That is truly what I must do with my life. These past two weeks have been very strange. First week I was recovering from my 5 KM race, which considering that fact that I was running about 5 km's every other night you would not think it would take a whole week to recover. We'll when you run 958 more stairs then you are use to guess again. Then this week of work I made up the excuse to be lazy at home and in life because work was exhausting all of my energy, getting ready for the big sale. Well no more racing recovery, no more crazy 13 hours work days so I guess back to the grind. Eating Healthy, working out, reading, praying morning and night with real intent not just 2 minute prayers like I feel they have been lately to get them out of the way for the night. I can't believe what a difference two weeks makes in our lives though. I feel fat and flubby all around my stomach, I swear I have twenty more zits then usual from the unhealthy take out food I have been eating almost everyday this week and my hubby commented today that I seem grumpy lately. That would come from a lake of everything in my life these past two weeks. Conference was a great pick me up today, interesting how you feel everything the Prophet and Apostles talk about pertains to yourself. So calling Kalinda's old self, time to get back at it. I bet not even three days at it will make me feel 100 times better.
