The People I Love the Most in This World...

So, I thought it would be fun to introduce my family... Well sort of do what I can!

So, I have a confusing story here when it comes to my immediate family. There's me! I am the baby.  My parents are still together after I believe like 27 years and then there is my half brother and sister. Now both of my parents were married before they met each other. My mom never had kids from her previous marriage but my Dad did! Now enter Paige and Casey! They are 9 and 10 years older then me. My brother is the oldest!

HERE WE GO!!!!

Casey is 10 years older then me and to be completely honest we were never really that close. He was pretty quiet growing up but having such a huge gap it is kind of hard to be close to someone! He is very very smart, loves to read and loves hockey! He has season tickets to the NHL team here. He works very hard and I truly admire him for that, he has 2 beautiful children and an amazing wife. Pam is probably one of the strongest women I have ever met, I definitely look up to her and respect her very much for that. Pam and Casey got married in 2003 in October! I was only 11 but it was a definitely a wonderful day. I remember the bridesmaids dresses were this dark green lace, they were so beautiful and so were the fall colours. One year later, they had a baby named D, the cutest little boy with the brightest hair and most adorable freckles. He loves playing hockey and it very good at it! Very athletic kid for sure! He must have got that from his mom ;) Only kidding. Then in June 2007 they had a sweet baby girl named K. This girl is wild! She is probably the most girly girl yet most tom boy-ish girl I have ever met! It is phenomenal! She is a fire cracker for sure and will definitely be a force to be reckoned with. They definitely have a pretty much perfect little family!

Next up is my sister! Paige and I are very close now, but when I was younger we weren't super close. Again, it is difficult when there is such an age gap between you. Paige is probably one of the most caring, wonderful people on the face of the planet. She has picked and held me up when I wasn't strong enough to do it on my own and she is one of my best friends. Her husband, Brad is so funny. He is a fantastic father and has a heart of gold. They had baby C in October of 2006. A big blue-eyed baby boy that looked absolutely identical to his father! C is a very smart little boy who loves, loves, loves Super Heros! He still looks just like his father that is for sure. He is going to grow up to be such a little gentleman I can tell. Paige and Brad got married in July the following year in July. 07/07/07! I was a bridesmaid in her wedding and it was so much fun! We wore beautiful dark red dresses, and the weather was perfect ALL day! If I remember correctly. In October 2008, they had another baby boy named G! He was a chunky monkey and oh my goodness adorable! This little guy has grown into quite the character, he has the best sense if humour and also shares the same love of Super Heroes as his big brother. He loves to make people laugh and I don't think that will ever change. I really thought they were done having kids even though I secretly hoped that they would have another!! They did! This year, on MY birthday they had an adorable baby girl named L. She is about 6 weeks old and has those big blue eyes that every one in that family has! She is going to be beautiful I am sure, just like her Mom.

My mom has 4 sisters and 1 brother. She is right in the middle! My mom is probably one of the most amazing people I have ever met. She has the biggest and most generous heart, I truly hope that one day I can be like her. She is willing to go above and beyond for everyone. Especially when it comes to her family and the people she loves. I am very lucky to have such an amazing mother, I can tell her anything and we have a great relationship. Dad has 1 sister and 2 brothers! He is the oldest of the bunch!  My dad can be kind of difficult, I think that is where I get it from. ;) There is not a person in the world I admire more then him. He is almost 60 years old and still wakes up every morning before 6 and works for 10-12 hours. He works so hard, it is amazing and he is my hero because of that.

Mine may not be perfect, but every family has their problems I suppose. However, there is not a single person in the world I love more then my family. I am so lucky to have a strong support system and people who love me so much. I wouldn't trade them for the world. <3 My whole family means so much to me, I have the most loving aunts, the funniest uncles and the best cousins, without a doubt. Grateful can't even describe how I feel about them.


If any of you are reading this, I love you and thank you for standing behind me and supporting each and every one of my decisions <3

More to come!!!!!

My Top 5 Actresses!

So, I was thinking the other day about blog posts I could make, and I figured, why not give you my top 5 favourite movies, songs, actors and actresses! So, to start it off.... my top 5....Actresses~ 1. Scarlett Johanssen - I have always loved her, even when I saw her for the first time in Eight Legged Freaks, one of my favourite movies she has been in was Scoop, and of course Iron Man. I did like her in the Avengers, however I felt that she wasn't necessarily the best "Russian" they could have gotten. She did do well as Black Widow though. When her and Ryan Renoylds got married, I was so happy, they seemed like they perfect couple and I really liked them both as actors. She has such a classic look about her, it is wonderful. I feel like the thing with her, is you either LOVE her or you really HATE her! I think she is very unique and a wonderful person for young girls to look up to. 2. Amy Adams- How could you not love this red headed beauty! She is fabulous an...

UFC

Now, I am writing about UFC because a lot of people either LOVE it or they absolutely hate it more then almost anything. Personally, I really enjoy watching it, I wouldn't say that I am a die hard fan, I'll leave that to Bryan and his Dad. However there is something about the hype and the build up and the extreme athleticism that appeals to me. It takes so much skill and work it is astounding to me. The biggest thing is that this isn't just a sport, or a job. This is literally a lifestyle. Training every single day in the gym, working to gain weight or lose weight and preparing months in advance for 1 fight that could make or break their entire career. There is definitely a part of me that has a huge respect for that. First off, let me tell you kind of how it works. There are 8 different weight classes, which means there are 8 different world champions right now. First off, here are the weight classes along with the reining champions right n...
