Scout

My wish was finally granted! If anyone knows me well, they would know that I love dogs. I love animals! It's been an ongoing battle between Travis and I and we finally came to an agreement and didn't waste any time getting a puppy- - well, I didn't waste any time. We both agreed on a chocolate lab, and I started looking the minute my sweet husband said, "okay!" My aunt had bought two labs from this breeder in Saskatchewan. So, I thought I would contact the lady and ask her if she had any chocolate lab puppies left. She called me back within minutes saying that she had ONE puppy left. I called Travis and he said... "just get it." It was SO surreal... but I was just happy as a clam.
This is when I first picked her up! I had to drive up to Calgary to pick her up from the airport, so I stopped by my parents house to show her off. She was so mellow the whole time! I was in love. 
Can't get over her hefty little paws! She's going to be big one day!
She sleeps all the time, honestly. It's like she is a new born babe! I guess she is. We will play for about 10 minutes and she is just worn right out. I kind of love it. I know she won't be like this for long. 
Everyone I talk to says, "Scout is a boy's name!" Well... I love it and it kind of suits her! 
My little niece was laying on the floor and Scout went and cuddled right next to her. She is super cuddly and I love it!! She likes to be as close to you as she can and it's so cute. 
Pretty little pup. I am obsessed with her eyes! 
I have to give a quick shout out to my rockin' husband. One of the main reasons I married him was for his big and kind heart. He has gone to great lengths and sacrificed more than I think he realizes to bring happiness into my life. I am the luckiest girl in the world to have a man like him put up with me! He loves Scout and Scout loves him! Watching him with her has shown me even more how patient and how gentle he is. I love you, Travis!!

We did it!

Was this really a year ago? It honestly feels like yesterday. I wish I could relive that day over and over again. It was so perfect! I'm so blessed that the year that followed this day has been just as sweet as that day. 


I love him!!! He really is my best friend and I really don't know where I would be in life without him. 




For our anniversary, we went to Fairmont for a few days! The drive there was absolutely stunning. We had fun listening to fun music and eating the always-delicious Tim Hortons!



So stunning



So lucky to have this place basically in my own backyard! 

These flowers were in the chapel in Fairmont! The most perfect peonies!! I want to steal them 

The Seaborn Special! Travis has me HOOKED and it isn't a good thing. I used to think that it was the most disgusting drink, but I'm addicted now. Coke with grenadine. So delish

Mountain man. 

The hot springs. It was almost too hot to go in them during the day.. but at night it was glorious! 

The corny Sparkwood pics. 
We went to this hilarious restaurant in Invermere. I honestly laughed throughout the entire meal. The food was awesome! But, I literally felt like I was in Holland. Too good 



The smallest little branch in such a cute chapel! I loved it. 
After Fairmont we headed to Calgary for Canada Day! We went to a fun parade and ate some delicious food. I LOVE CANADA
