Summer Solstice, etc

So, the first official day of summer came and went... and apparently it will be raining a few days this week (wtf summer!!). As Bobby and I move forward with wedding planning, the major barrier is the date. We want to get married in the summer, on a sunny day -  is this too much to ask??? Obviously, neither one of us has a crystal ball. However, its rained so often this June already... its making me nervous having a wedding NEXT June :/ Anyway, I digress...

Let's recap the weekend festivities instead, shall we?

Saturday:
Bobby got his work car last week.. So he started driving that around because the company pays for his gas.. which meant that he left our personal car at work. We went to pick it up on Saturday... on the way home.. on Pinetree and David (just at the very end of Town Centre), the light is green, everyone is going about their business... and Bobby just STOPS. I'm like WTF WHAT?!?! He was like, "there's a bear!!". I look over and sure enough, there was a black bear that jumped the fence and into the forest/wooded area. The bear wasn't small (therefore, no scary momma bear lurking I hope), and it also wasn't giant (therefore it wasn't a scary momma bear itself...). But its still freaky running into a bear! Even though we were in a car...

We got home and parked both cars... and hit the pool. Well, Bobby hit the pool. I lounged around and read a book. After we got enough Vitamin D, we visited our friends Brad-Ja-Luca at their new place not too far from where we live. They just bought this awesome townhome - lots of space for Luca to run around and terrorize ;)

Then, later on in the evening, we hit up Yaletown for my brother's birthday event. It was a low-key night, which is awesome for us suburbaners (especially since I was the designated driver!)

Sunday:
Woke up and asked Bobby to make crepes. Mmmmm crepes! I had mine with nutella and mango.Bobby had the same, but with ice cream.

mmmmm
Then we cleaned the apartment. It was so messy and dirty. I found out that Kiwi relieved herself under our shelf so we cleaned up and she is now locked into her cage - no more freedom little missy! Then we returned the shavings Kiwi hated (they were to small and she kept accidentally eating/breathing in the pieces that she had a tantrum for over a day) and bought the ones that she did like... and after all that hard work, we treated ourselves to gelato... and pulled pork!

Now its Monday. I drove into work today (so awesome not having to wait around for the bus, or the train). The sun in shining! Woo hoo! Let's get this week started!
