Andrew and I decided to golf on the spur of the moment.

I didn’t do well. My first time. 😛 But I enjoyed being out on this gorgeous afternoon. I can see why he loves it so much.

Shane’s going to Andrew work today!

It was my birthday last week and as a present to myself, I got a brand new root canal. Yay.

I think I was just so tired from travels and work, my old root canal that I had for years got infected. Long story short, I ended up in ER last weekend, then had to stay in bed for a few days. I was in a lot of pain but at least I got to spend a nice and quiet week at home… Thank you Usha and Maude for the beautiful flowers!

Every morning, I look forward to getting a latte first thing.

Happy coworkers.

After work, I also got to  enjoy a little R&R…

Luckily we got some snow last night and looks like we’ll have a good day skiing!

Unfortunately I was still feeling sick so I volunteered as a designated babysitter in case any little ones needed to take breaks in between…

This morning, I came bright and early for our team building/trend track day, visiting museums and doing all kinds of cool stuff. We have an amazing fun day planned ahead so I was super excited.  Then I happened to pass by 9/11 Memorial site… I couldn’t believe it’s my first time being here…ever… As I was passing by I felt the heavy emotions and uncontrollable sadness, and of course, I began crying like I always do. I’m a crier… With all these crazy things we hear on the news  these days, I was just overwhelmed … After a few minutes of pause and a prayer, I gathered myself and moved on. I am thankful for the faith I have and that I was reminded of God’s providence… in the end, no matter how our lives end here on earth, we will be with our creator and we will have the final victory against evil…

In celebration of Halloween, my yogi friend/coworker and I went to a blacklight yoga class at Pure West in the city. It was so much fun!

I started taking yoga classes last year in september and I feel like my body has changed since then. I have issues in my neck down to my lower back for many years and honestly, my pain has been significantly better if any and it’s because of yoga! I highly recommend to all of my friends and I can’t wait to introduce Chloe to it. My big concern with yoga before I started was spiritual aspect to it. You are told to “meditate” and empty out and clear your mind and I don’t agree with some of yogi beliefs. I learned to use the meditation time to pray to God and ask the Holy spirit to “fill me” instead of emptying out my mind. It also helped that I found a really great contemporary flow yoga practice in LT gym. I love it!

Andrew and I had some time to walk around in the city before we headed over to our friend’s birthday party. It’s been a while it’s  just the two of us here… It was nice.

Then we met up with our friends and sang our hearts out~

This weekend our church is hosting a Vacation Bible school and I happened to be one of the volunteers.

The children’s ministry team did a wonderful job transforming the place into the vast backcountry of Australia!

Afterwards Chloe helped me vacuuming the hallways. 🙂
