Toronto Bound.....



Well we are off to Toronto, I am going to be a bridesmaid for the first time to my sweet dear friend Jen. Any chance to get back to the city I love I jump at. When I was 16 my aunt surprised me with a ticket to Madonna and a flight to the city I wanted to make my home. Walking down Yonge street I looked at my aunt and said "One day I will live here" 5 years later that dream came true.
There is an energy to Toronto that reminds me of Canada's version if New York. Always something to do, see and the diversity is amazing, I spent my 20's in this city growing up, setting the groundwork to where I am and who I am today.  My brothers and I had our pet food store for 5 of those years we all lived together which in hind sight should have been a reality show...lol 
I have made many lifelong friends in this city and luckily with Facebook we all still keep in touch. Every time I am back the city has grown and changed,  I guess part of me thought it would stop. I even find it hard to return home to Vancouver, however home is where my heart is and although I miss the energy and excitement of and this amazing city...I know they cannot compare to the love and the wonderful life I am blessed with  in Vancouver.  however.....there will always be a part of me that refers to Toronto as my 
home.
