Happiness

Every time I get together with my family, whether it be a dinner, an afternoon or a wedding shower, I am reminded of this quote. Sometimes life gets too busy with…"things." Read More...

My buddy!

My buddy Chevy. An English Springer Spaniel, just over a year now and he is the sweetest dog we've ever had! Or known. Chevy absolutely loves everyone he meets. Here, he was helping me rake the maple leaves from the front yard. We waited for some neighbourhood kids to join in the fun, but sadly none came by so the photo op was all about him... Read More...

Zombie Virus

If you read my last post you would of found out Halloween is not one of my favourite "things." However, when I got a post from Paper Jewels and saw a neat idea for grown ups, I decided to create a couple for my adult kids. I went to the websites she recommended to print some poisonous and apothecary labels. First, aging and distressing a full sheet of adhesive paper before printing the labels gave me the effect I was hoping for. Read More...

Store Update

Another beauty of a day here in the Okanagan!
I have a few projects in the works you will see on my blog in the next few days. Halloween gifts for adults…turned out great. I decorate my home for fall with pumpkins, pears, grapevines and berries as I am not a big Halloween celebrator and found out I am not alone.

Autumn Colour

Hey there! I've been missing in action for the whole summer with a little of this, a lot of that and busy, busy times! This is the year of being in constant wedding mode. Our youngest son got married at the beginning of the summer and it was a beautiful, memorable and fun event in our lives. I made the wedding invitations, favours and matching thank you cards for the couple. Our eldest son, is having a beach destination wedding in January, for which I made the invitations too. I continued with my summer job in third year as a wine tour guide, had another birthday (oh joy) and returned to work at my neighbourhood school with an assignment I love. Really, can many of you say you look forward in getting up each morning to work at a job? I am so fortunate to return and simply adore the teachers and students I support!

Vancouver in May

I have been wanting to share a few photos of our trip to Vancouver last month. What a sweet time hubby and I had! We saw the Eagles at GM Place on May 10th and wow did they ever put on a good show! They still have it! How fun is it when you know ALL the words to every song. This was our first time seeing a large concert and I certainly would do it again. Not only did we have a fabulous time seeing the Eagles..the next night.... we also saw the last playoff game of the Vancouver Canucks!

How lucky was it that our son managed to get tickets and was a couple rows down from us. Hey...like father, like son? Yup, you can tell they are related! Even though the Canucks lost, we are forever fans.

And here are a few more photos of our touring downtown....love Vancouver for the fact that you can walk everywhere! We walked up to the new Convention Center and back down to Gastown for lunch. The Old Spaghetti Factory is tops on our list...the best lime margarita!! No your eyes are not crossed and the picture is in focus. It's a Lego Orca!
