Back in Edmonton for a month now, and a busy month it has been. Between job hunting, organizing and catching up with friends, we haven’t had the most free time this month. We have started doing yoga – it is a lot of fun, and much more of a workout that it seems. We want to start consistant classes come mid September.

We went to Gina and Matt’s wedding in the middle of the month – beautiful ceremony out at Eagle Rock Golf Course. It was set against a small lake with a fountain. There was beautiful weather over the ceremony. The reception was also beautiful, aubergines and grays covered the room with these wonderful centre peices – tall, thin glass vases with wood and little flowers hanging from the sticks. We danced up a storm.

All in all we are glad to be back in Edmonton, we are getting ourselves well on track. Victoria was a nice vacation, and did treat us well. It was just not what we wanted.

Since moving to Victoria, we haven’t had the chance to have many visitors. This is of course understandable–the majority of our friend base is a whole province away. This was not really much of an issue, we lived with Andrew, and being the somewhat social creature that he is, we always had people around.

Since getting our own place however, we hadn’t had any visitors. Again this is understandable. With Christmas, our trip to Edmonton and our hectic schedule, we really hadn’t had the chance to have anyone over. Of course this week that all changed.

Last Sunday we had our friend Sharron come and visit us from the mainland. She had the honour of being our first guest in our place. It was nice to finally have someone over to see where we live, and after being Sharron’s first overnight guest, it was nice to have her as our first guest. She missed out on being the first overnight guest though.

That distinction will get to go to Aaron and Christine. They will be coming in to visit us tomorrow evening. I have been looking forward to this for a while. Always good to have one of your best friends to come and visit, especially when you don’t get to see them often. We have arranged a bit of a larger get together on Saturday as well. An excuse to be huge geeks of course, but hey, that also means that they get to be here for our first party-like gathering.
