it's a new season!

Emrhubby is watching ice road truckers, the "new season". he loves this stuff. last night he waited patiently for the new show 'road thru hell'. which is based on a highway about 1.5hr away from us. this is the highway emrhubby wants to work on. fatal accidents is just the beginning on the coquihalla.
this is a highway that goes from okay to deadly in minutes.
to be completely honest it scares the poop out of me. i hate it in the winter. we've done this highway many many times with our hauling company. but in winter. its like a demon highway. the last time we traveled it in february, it began to snow. in minutes we were crawling up the mountain. emrhubby stopped to help a truck that had spun out, the driver was unconcious. we then passed 2 semi trucks that had hit eachother. luckily police were already on scene. so yea, i hate this highway. i kinda hope he doesn't get in near it but since 2 of his 3 picks are along the coq. he likely will get his wish.

on a another note, our plans keep going back and forth where he'll eventually work. right now it's looking strong like Alberta as he'll get paid well for it there. properties are cheaper and living costs are cheaper. but i'm sure plans won't be set in stone till we're here next year and evaluating our future and where we want to end up. i'll be happy as long as we have property and i can rodeo my horse  horses.

you also may have noticed i gave the blog here a bit of a facelift. i found the other one not as pleasant to look at, also it wasn't really my style. i hope this one is inviting and makes you want to keep coming back!
i've been thinking of things i can write about and share. i can't really bake so that's not going to work sharing recipes with you. i'm not good at sports or take any interest in them, other than horses and barrel racing haha.. but i am a pretty decent artist. so perhaps i could share crafts and other decorating things. i made all the decore for our wedding, it turned out excatly how i wanted.

i used to share these types of things on my photography blog, but that site has slowly become stiffly professional and how i get work, it's nice to just write what i want to write again and not worry about people not always agreeing with me. plus alot of people just come to look at photos, they don't want to hear my sap story of life! (or maybe they do...)

anyway, back to the blog facelift (can you tell i'm random yet?) - i added an about page. it kinda has our story as a couple and how we got to where we are today. you can check that out on the side of the page right there or right here. i added some photos of the fam and our animals.

there's also a lovely little contact page now!

so i hope you enjoy the new site, it took me all day to make!!
