One very exciting thing for me is that I went on my first official business trip to Canada. We flew into Vancouver the Monday before the Olympics started and left on Wednesday. We had decided to move our product to a new warehouse and went up to get them started. I was really honored to have been invited on this trip- it is not often that we get to go places. Especially places in another country. I was really nervous. Being a girl, I was mostly nervous about what someone wears on a business trip that involves a warehouse. Being so young, I wanted to look professional and so I set off to Ross with some Christmas money and was able to get some nice outfits. The trip was a lot of fun, and while there was not a lot of sight seeing, we ate good and I was able to meet a salesman that I have been dealing with for at least 8 years now. It was really fun. And now I have been attempting at dressing better. "Dress for the job you want, not the job you have" a friend advised me. So I am slowly building a more professional wardrobe despite the somewhat casual workplace.
That being said- my purse my mom made me (Which I loved) was starting to fall apart and I have been wanting a new one. So I set my heart on this purse. Most people would have to agree that this purse was made for me and who I am. I had the nice lady who made it add a flat bow to give it a slightly more feminine touch.
We were able to get down to Santa Cruz and spend an afternoon with Justin's Grandma. It is always such a delight being around her. We wish we could spend more time with her. And it always makes me miss my grandparents more. 
Justin's brother Dan came and brought our niece Teagan up for a visit while his wife Michelle was judging a gymnastics tournament. I just love holding such a little baby again, and it did make me think harder about another one. But trying to take care of Paige while I was holding Teagan proved to be difficult. I think we will definitely be getting a sling or something for the next one because I need my hands free. And Paige had a hard time watching me hold another baby. But I enjoyed every second. 
Justin's team- THE COLTS- made it to the Superbowl this year. So for one day, Paige & I dressed up in Colts Gear (My mom had bought a kids jersey for her a while ago- so even though it was big- she wore it). Unfortunately they did not win but it felt good to be able to root for the same team for a change.
Other than that, I think February was somewhat uneventful. We are looking forward to the warmer weather, and are being teased by mother nature right now. I had a photo shoot in 50's style dress and the car- I will try to get to posting those pics soon.
