So because I have a new email address and hate having to sign in with this address, I have decided to make the shift to a new blog which is:
www.vanessamsiemens.blogspot.com
I would love for you to join me there! However, I have made it private just so I can know who is reading my blog, etc. But dont' let that stop you! Send me an email at vanessa_siemens@hotmail.com and let me know who you are and how you found my blog (if I don't already know you) and I will send you an invite!!
See you there!
(p.s. the new blog isn't too exciting yet.. but hopefully it will become so!)

Happy New Year's!
My friend Jenn was in Alberta for the holidays and I missed her when she was in B.C., so I decided it would be fun to fly to Calgary for a few days to hang out with two of my really close and dear friends, Jenn and Lindie.
When I arrived, Jenn and Lindie were there to greet me. Lindie works for WestJet, so it was nice to have my own personal smiling customer service agent waiting! :)
We went to Schanks for New Year's. It's a sports bar in Calgary. It was a little sad to watch the Canucks lose while surrounded by Flames fans, but it was fun anyway! Here are the oh-so-cool New Year's hats we got.. haha.. it was hard to keep mine on my head while taking the picture, but it turned out kind of fun anyway! After the game we danced a bunch and enjoyed the appy's buffet! For New Year's Day, we went to the Saddledome to watch the final game of the midget hockey tournament. The game was between the Vancouver Giants and Russia and Vancouver got creamed 7-0. A little sad, but it was fun anyway! Afterwards, we went with Jenn's whole family to Mongolie Grill for a goodbye and birthday dinner for Jenn before she headed back to Quebec.
The next day, I went out with Lindie, her sister Erin and two of their past roommates. We decided to go for pizza and it was lots of fun!
Erin and Meghan, who was out from Bermuda for the holidays
The next day was Erin's birthday, so we went skating outside at Bowness Park. Lots of fun skating outside, although my feet are fairly prone to getting sore!! The only other place I've skated outdoors was Quebec, so it was fun to be able to do it again! It's cool, because there's all different paths you can skate. That night, Erin, Lindie and I met a bunch of Erin's friends from work (she's a paramedic) at Open Sesame for a birthday dinner for Erin. I didn't end up taking any pictures, but we had a great time! All ten of us got free dessert at the end, because they made us move tables! We werent complaining! Then I caught my flight back to Abbotsford where I have a few days yet before school starts!

Last but not least is the famous pink tablecloth. Jenn, Lindie and I always hide it on each other when we are visiting one another. It started one summer when we all lived together in Quebec. We'd always hide it in each other's pillows. Anyway, now we write a little message on it every time and then hide it on each other. Recently I found it in my sock drawer.. but I hid it nicely in Lindie's house.. fun times!!
