Vienna!!!

Its been a busy few months since i've been back home!! It's so great to be back and reunited with everyone. I started my teaching job ( made me realize that there really aren't enough hours in a day)...and I haven't even started marking or report cards...i'm just hoping my hair stays thick after the month of june...had to cut her a few days ago...I didn't want my hair to be too heavy for the summer.

I became an aunt/self proclaimed Godmother in april to baby Jace. Nielder and my childhood bestie Lauren both gave birth the same day!! Two beautiful healthy babies. Nielder also got engaged so now we have two big weddings to plan for next year ( the Nield's and Marcello's).

I will admit that I do miss the laid back European lifestyle ( small glass of wine in the bath w my book and hand towel...kebabs after a late night...rolling to Austria to visit my kathy). We loved Europe so much we decided to stay there until jamie hangs his skates up....anddd I can't say I'm mad about it.  I mastered the oven, washing machine AND my Slovenian language while I was there. I can pretty much say I speak 3 languages now. Pretty much trilingual.

We decided to stay in the Austrian league seeing as Jamie absolutely loved it. Although I loved the city of jujubes ( Ljubljana) I was pretttyyy excited when Jamie's agent called him with the offer from Vienna. Not only am I an hour and a half away from Katy instead of four...BUT I fell in love with Vienna when Katy, Kyla and I went there this year. The city was breathtaking and it really had a canadian feel to it. Jamie did say he would take a large pay cut to have a subway near him last year...well his dreams are coming true....Vienna has a SUBWAY, forever 21 and a Starbucks....I mean.

So for those of you who are planning a European trip...apparently Vienna is one of the top 3 most beautiful cities in the world....just saying. Sooo...I am now spending my summer off with Jamie learning German by the pool ( he doesn't know it yet). Oh and I forgot to add that our apt has an indoor pool...I mean... who doesn't want to small swan dive in december. 

We are off to vegas this weekend!! If you've read my blog about our vegas trip you'll remember I fell asleep in my salad bowl after the casino over served me with their free drinks (rude)  which resulted in Jamie going to a concert solo. I'm getting a second chance. I am redeeming myself. Bless your soul Jame. Let's just say it's a good thing all of Sarnia will be there AND our friends Stef and Clay who we haven't seen since houston will be there too!!! 

Have a great long weekend...and i'll keep you posted on whether or not Jamie will want to do a trip with me again!
