Roadtrip! (aka Bellingham daytrip)

May 5th, 2008 by monnibo

Everything else has been pretty lack-luster (including the job search) so I thought I would focus on the day trip Evan and I took down to Bellingham. We left on Sunday morning and didn’t make it to Bellis Fair until the afternoon (we took a lot of stops).

Bellis Fair Mall!
Wooo shopping time!


Hair extensions anyone?


Hollister changerooms.


So happy with my new bras! NO KIDDING AROUND HERE! (P.S. Ladies, if you want an amazing bra — Victoria’s Secret – Lined Demi has nooo seams whatsoever, and the straps don’t twist and the edges of the cups don’t fold. It’s amazing. I am now in love with my new bras!)


Evan’s Car Twin!! (his is the one whose headlights are on)


Some Starbucks Products in Target that we don’t have in Canada (yet)


The stereo display in Evan’s car is a little special… YOOOD AY! (but at least his works – mine is broken!)


Git back in yer own country! (Just kidding!)


Final artsy shot.

We also went to see if my Nanny’s house was still there, and there is a whole story there, but it’s a story for another day. I promise to tell you about my Nanny (Grandma), who is my middle-name-sake!

Learning to Crochet

May 5th, 2008 by monnibo

Before I left England, CW’s Grandma and her neighbour taught me to crochet. It was honestly just the basics but I’ve been practicing!

I took Foodsafe on Saturday and I crocheted during the lectures. And when we were waiting at the Border Crossing I did some more (pictured below). Chelle and I are getting together this week and she’s going to teach me some more tricks. I still have trouble picking my next “move”.
