After Magic Kingdom I did not go to bed. I got home at 2:00 am which left me an hour until we were leaving for the airport... Lucky enough my friend Kevin had just gotten home from Disneyland then he ubered to my house and helped me out!
It looks so empty...
because it is all in here!
Rachael and I ubered to the airport with Laura.
My first flight to Houston
Houston to Calgary.
So happy to finally see this sign after we were stuck in the air for half an hour due to a storm, then stuck on the ground for another half hour as there was lightning and the ground crew could not be outside.
I got through customs fine, I had to claim the shipped bag as well because customs would not let DHL claim my bag for me so I had to go pick it up later!
I came out of customs with my luggage to see this sign held by Krista-Lyn and Nicole (my cousins). We went to find my dad and headed home. I felt bad that my flight kept getting delayed on them. Once we got home my dad took my luggage up to my bedroom while the girls and I just stood in the kitchen talking for a while. Probably about 15-20 minutes just talking, then all of a sudden Krista was like why dont we go see your room. A bit confused I looked at Nicole and said "what did they move my room around?". I opened my bedroom door to see Brad, my boyfriend, sitting on my bed wearing his "my favorite Disney princess is my girlfriend shirt" and a I'm Celebrating button. He was so cute. He had parked at Co-op and walked to my house in the pouring rain to surprise me! He too was so patient with my flight delays.
Isn't my mom super cute!

I really wanted family dinner when I got back but my cousins all had to work, my aunts and uncles were busy so my mom told me my grand parents were coming over for dinner. Brad wanted to go out and do something so my mom told us to be back by 4:00-4:15 as my grandparents would be there for dinner. We went to his house so I could see his family then we decided to go to Finding Dory as I love that movie and really wanted him to see it. Nearing the end of the movie I looked at my watch and it was almost 4:00... there wasn't much time left in the movie but... OH NO we were going to be late. Brad saw me checking the time and told me to not worry about it and watch the movie. I went to text my mom that we were going to be late while the credits started and Brad stayed for the additional scene after (spoiler alert: make sure you watch all the way to the end of the credits). Now i'm freaking out, we got to my house and Brad was rushing me not to grab all my stuff he said let's just go we will come back. We walked in my house and I saw a streamer on the ceiling and looked down and thought to my self "No just my grandparents shoes". I walked around the corner to a Big SURPRISE! My cousin and mom threw me a surprise party and Brad had the one job of keeping me out/occupied. He did good again!
Of course it was Ariel themed.

I was so happy that I was home for the last day of Stampede! It is truthfully something that I look forward to this event every years! Yes I left 'The Most Magical Place On Earth' to go to The Greatest Outdoor Show On Earth!'
Later we met up with my parents and we went to Jeff Dunham.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My parents and I drove to Red Deer to meet my brother at Peter's Drive In (yet another favorite)
We all then took the dogs to the dog park!
Since getting home I have been kept busy everyday which has been really nice!
Yes I miss Disney but I have been lucky enough to go back to my old job at the Disney Store!
Thank you so much for reading my blog this past year!
It was one of the best years of my life, It is time to face reality and figure out what to do!
See you all real soon!
