Check out the bookshelf my amazing husband-to-be built for my Christmas gift!

Thank you so much, Kyle!

Christmas Preparations at the Evans' House

The tree is up and gifts are being piled up underneath it...

Gingerbread and sugar cookies have been dominating our house for the past couple of days... Add that to the shortbread, peanut butter balls, almond slice cookies, cherry pound cake, and other various treats my Mum has made, and you get the Evans family on a constant sugar high!

Merry Christmas!

HealthAchieve 2010

HealthAchieve 2010 is behind us, and as exhausting as it was, the convention went over extremely well.

Elizabeth and I stayed at the Fairmont Royal York for the duration of the event, and were a little creeped out by the hotel. We amused ourselves by reenacting scenes from The Shining.

Co-workers Cass, Margaux and I at dinner on Sunday night.

Remembrance Day

Happy birthday, Kevin!

November 5th was Kevin's 30th birthday, so naturally we had to help him celebrate!

Lindsey, Vicki and I catching up at the party.

Happy birthday!

The Cove

I recently watched the very moving documentary, The Cove, regarding the capture, sale and slaughter of dolphins in Japan, as well as the hideous practice of selling dolphin meat that is heavily contaminated with mercury to stores and schools under the guise of being whale meat.

Activist Richard O'Barry has devoted his life to the protection of dolphins around the world, and hopes to capture worldwide support through this film.

I highly suggest that everyone watch this documentary - The passion of those involved is so genuine, you cannot help being drawn to their cause.
