Stuck in Edmonton

Ahhh!!!!

So, heres the run-down on the trip so far.

We left Cold Lake, yesterday morning at 6:00 am on the Military bus

We got to the airport at roughly 10:00 am and were told that they almost wouldn't let us in because the prime minister was coming in. We had 4 1/2 minutes to get off the bus and into the airport.

Our plane originally was delayed by an hour.

Then it got delayed by 4

Then 8

Then it was delayed and re-routed because of Fog

Then it FINALLY Landed

Then it was broken!

Then it was so broken that it wouldn't be fixed at all that night so we had to find a hotel.

Now, we are booked on another flight set to leave at 9:40 and arrive in Comox at 12:25.

Pray, pray, pray!

Yeah, yeah... it's been a while. (as my mom so lovingly reminded me =p)

Currently, I am sitting in an airport waiting for my flight back home, which should leave in another 2 1/2 hours, making this the perfect time to update my blog.

Life in Cold lake is going on as usual, it's busy, boring and stressful all at the same time.

Work has kept me on my feet, I worked closing shifts for the 8 days leading up to Christmas, leaving very little time to breathe. Plus, my wedding dress came in, so I picked that up.

Christmas was great! it was kind of nice to have just our family for Christmas, it was very quiet. I spent the entire day doing nothing, followed by an immaculate turkey dinner. I got tons of stuff, I was very spoiled (list at the end of the blog) Brandon and I's 2 year Anniversary was yesterday, and that was fun. Brandon made me breakfast in bed (a phenomenal mango, peach smoothie) complete with a card and roses, which were fake and lovingly picked as pretty much everything in Cold Lake is closed on boxing day. Then we met up with some friends for coffee. Our day was concluded with a dinner at BP, some shopping at Walmart and some cuddling on the couch while we watched Public Enemies (Brandon got it for Christmas)

And now, as I previously stated, I am sitting in the airport... waiting to go HOME! Funny thing, When we got here... there were a bunch of people walking around with headsets and black jackets and Campbell was laughing, saying they looked like some sorta special agents, only to find out 2 minutes later that they almost would not let us in because the prime minister was landing,... and those guys WERE special agents! HOW COOL IS THAT!? I was pretty stoked.

All in all, past couple weeks... pretty chaotic. BUT... I am very glad to be coming home!

As promised, the CHRISTMAS list:

- iPod touch, 32 gb, 3rd Gen

- iPod Case, purple AND eco-friendly

- Mac mighty mouse

- OPI nail polish

- Knock-Off, Purple, Louis Vuitton Wallet

- Jack accessories

Pretty much a phenomenal Christmas!
