One of the other big changes in our lives is a pretty major one! A couple of weeks ago, Pete parted ways with Fraser Way RV. He was not happy there, and they just didn't appreciate all the hard work he was doing. As of tomorrow, Pete will be the newest employee at The Honda Way! He was interviewed today and hired on the spot!!!! There are a lot of guys his age there, not like at FRV. Both places are in the AutoMall, but they are in opposite ends of the lot, thank goodness :) He is SO happy to be starting a new adventure with THW. I am SO happy for him!!! At THW, he will actually be getting an hourly wage PLUS commission on anything he sells!!!!! This is awesome news, and take a lot of stress off of Pete :)

A couple of post ago, I mentioned that there would be some major changes coming up in our lives. One of them, we were not too sure of, but after Pete's birthday on Friday, it was confirmed, and we decided to move forward with the change. We have been talking for a while about who our mutual friends together really are, you know, the people that actually call you, or invite you over, or accept invites to our place, you hang out with on a regular basis. We made a list of our friends, and realized that there are only TWO couples who we get together with on a regular basis who are not even in our "regular" circle of friends. It was one of these couples, who actually called Pete on his birthday, and invited us over for a bbq yesterday, to celebrate Pete's birthday. None of Pete's friends called him on Friday, despite me posting it on Facebook that it was his birthday. Pete has a car club group that he belongs to, and we have a group of friends we hang out with, but we have decided to drop them all, and put them into the acquaintance category. I had to do this with a group of my girlfriends, a couple of years ago. It's just a kind of de-cluttering, or spring cleaning of our lives. I only have a few close girlfriends, that I spend time with. I think it's good, every so often to re-evaluate or lives , and the people in them, to make sure you're all on the same page. We're not mad at anyone, or hate anyone that was in our now, former group of friends, we will most certainly see them from time to time, but we're going to focus more on the people who are able to give us time in their lives.

The Many Faces Of Taffy..............

So our blog is called Just The Two Of Us, but it should REALLY be Just The Three Of Us, since Taffy is a part of our lives. He was a stray that our friends asked us to take in, last October, so we were only going to keep him for about a week and try to find him a new home. Well, we fell in love with him, and well, he's pretty much our kid now :) He sleeps with us in the bed at night, at our feet, and when one of us are sick, he sticks to that person like glue, like he knows were sick. He is probably the fattest cat you'll meet, but also one of the most adorable cats you'll meet. People we have over who are NOT cat people, fall in love with him immediately! How could you NOT, with a face like this????

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETE! I LOVE YOU!

Today, my sweet angel, Pete turned 34! Pete, you are the love of my life, and I am SO happy that God saw fit, to bring us together the way He did. I waited 34 years for you to be my husband, and I am SO happy that God chose you for me! You make me laugh, and you make me smile, and most of all you love me for who I am, just as I am. I love you Pete, and I am looking forward to MANY more birthday's together with you!

So I never really get my nails done. The first time I EVER got a french manicure, was for my wedding to Pete, in January. I went to this place in 7 Oaks mall called Luv Nails. As my sister will tell you, the oriental lady who did my nails, was talking in her language to her co-workers, the whole time I was getting my nails done. I kept telling her that I was SURE that she was telling her co-workers that I had awful nails. She just laughed. Then today, I went to go get my nails done, as a present for Pete for his birthday tomorrow. He LOVED my nails at our wedding and said I should get them done all the time. Not very practical for the line of work I was in. Back to today...I went to this place in the Safeway mall. Also oriental run and operated. AGAIN, while I was having my nails done, the lady doing my nails was yacking to her co-workers, in her language and laughing, while looking at my nails and working on them . I don't like to seem overly paranoid, but come on! I'm not stupid and I'm 85% sure that she was telling them I had awful nails, which I can admit I do. Anyhow, Pete was really thrilled when I came and showed him my nails! Awww......

Just a quick note to let you all know I am still here. Just some major changes that are going to be going on for Pete and I in the next while, all good of course. Hoping to post a longer blog in the next day or two :) Thanks for hanging in there. I hope you enjoy this weeks new template :) ~Barb and Pete

Tonight Pete and I went to the Twilight Drive-In, in Langley. (On Fraser Highway, just past Aldergrove). Pete's really good friend owns the drive in, so we usually get in for free or half price, and tonight was no exception :) Jay, the owner, gave me a behind the scenes tour of the projection room, which was pretty awesome. This drive in was one of Pete's and mine, very first dates! It was kind of romantic to think back on that tonight as we sat and watched the movie. The first movie was from 8-10, but we old folks, were tired after the first movie and didn't stay for the second or third one, which would have taken us til about 2 am. ! It's a good deal, even if you have to pay full price. $10.00/person for 3 movies! So, that was our date night tonight, we usually try to think of something different each time, and this was a great date, and a way to celebrate 3 months being married yesterday!
