It's been awhile..

Yes, it's been awhile.  Its been over a year and I am back here again.. Life has CHANGED.   In great ways, in stressful way, in challenging ways.  For the past two years I chose a word to embrace each year. 2010 it was Breathe for 2011 it was Love.  I feel compelled to choose one this year.  I chose LISTEN, to listen to my heart, to my instinct, to my children, to listen to those who have a story to tell, to listen for what is not being said.  To listen to the elders, to listen to my mom.  Sometimes life gets so rushed in my new job I lose the reflection moments and sometimes I feel I would learn so much if I just sat back and listened.  There's a lot to learn and a lot to take in.  

My family has become stronger and closer.  My girls are growing, Alice 5 and Abby now 3.  They continue to amaze me.  They are so fun and so friggen cute lol.  



Workwise has definitely changed.  I took on the challenge of running for Council for Samson Cree Nation and I was voted in.  I am very honoured to have the opportunity.  Its definitely interesting.. in great ways and challenging ways.  But my blogs won't be dedicated to political fun stuff.  I plan to return to blogging and just being me.  I also still do photography and have some amazing pictures to share. On the Law side I also became President of Indigenous Bar Association its great. 

Travel wise we have been on the go as usual for 2011.  We went to Mexico and the girls just love it as usual.  We did a road trip to oregon and stayed on the coast it was lovely.  The ocean is an amazing place.    We did a lot more small trips fishing and kinda camping lol.  Just random adventures to spend time as a family and take the girls on new journeys.  We returned to the happiest place on earth also.  This year who knows where the world will take us.. I know wes is going to Philippines.. I have been thinking tropical soon.  

Well life has changed it grew.  I hope to blog more (i know i say that every year) lol.. But who knows what lies ahead.. I just know I am here today.
