2 Roses and a Tom....

So Tom and the Roses went on a mini adventure around Vancouver last night. Tom is only here for a week so we decided to take him to Stanley Park. Ok, so we ended up seeing Stanley Park for a maxium of 5 minutes (if that)! But it was still a good evening.

After meeting up we went to get food for our picnic in the park. The thing that took the most time was deciding where and what to eat. After lots of 'I'm not fussy where do you guys want to go?' we ended up getting a yummy pizza. But because it took us SO long to decide, it was already going dark...we wandered along the water front for a little while and ate pizza and chatted before getting to the entrance of Stanley Park and standing in awe at the AMAZINGNESS of the city we live in, before leaving after 5 minutes due to HUGE dairy queen cravings on the Roses part...mmmm ice cream...

On our travels we also saw some pretty cool stuff...not quite as WOW and cool as Mr Bert the Racoon though...
We saw an upside down church...we weren't too sure either..., and I saw my first Canada Goose in Canada!!

Thanking you to Tom for looking after the Roses so well. Twas a good picnic...
Hopfully there will be some pictures soon...watch this space!

Much love, Rose and Rose xxx

the 1st

RACOON sighting!!

ok ok so we both know that its not exciting to a Canadian, but being British, we had never seen one untill last night.

So we jay=walked over the road to go see it, then go scared and jay-runned back! It had a weird look, like it was going to pounc! But still the 1st racoon..

Re-united.

hey...I just got back from my retreat. Lush weekend. However the other me was missed. But, talking to her online now...yay!

Well...thought I would list the ways in which the Roses are similar...

* Both properly on fire for God
* The British but on Pais:Canada thing
* Same age (well ish - our birthdays are only a month apart.)
* We chose the same dress for our leavers celebration thing in 6th form dispite the variety avaliable and living at miles apart...
* Both of us miss driving, our cats and english chocolate ALOT
* The Toms...scarily similar...
* The whole sucking thumb thing (but t'other me has stopped now...)
* We both did Geography A-level

sad

well it was a sad weekend where the roses had no contact with each other due to rose being on a retreat!

however rose was very pleased when she went to youth group and a black and white cat jumped out of the bush and gave her such a cute look and then started following her, and then watched her all the way to church. then today she got to speak to her baby jim via webcam and then woooo she got to hold and stroke a cat as she went babysiting and they had the cutest cat ever!!
