Happy Boxing Day.....oops, 46 minutes ago ;)

Best Christmas ever...

They really need to let me make a new portrait of them!

Happy, happy Christmas everyone.

Hello Chemistry. I'd like you to meet arts and crafts....

When Hannah was born, I immediately had arts and crafts on the brain. I couldn't wait til she was old enough to hold a crayon, a glue gun or scissors. Granted, six months may have been too early but give me points for trying.

We spent endless days with paper and glue and every other item we could find to create something out of nothing. This was before the internet and pinterest. We used our imaginations and imaginations we had. Some days we were exploding. And so did the mess ;)

Fast forward to 2012, when Miss Hannah is majoring in Chemistry at Mount Allison University.

Huh? Whaaaaaaaaaat?????? Yes I know. No graphic arts, no commercial arts, no photography,  no arts and crafts, no fine arts career.

Chemistry: the study of matter and the changes it undergoes.

Well wait a minute....WAIT        JUST        ONE       MINUTE : that kind of , sort of, sounds like arts and crafts to me.

So, as I wrap Hannah's gift this year, I say, 'Hello Chemistry! I'd like you to meet arts and crafts. It's a pleasure to meet you.'

Year Four.

Another early present to me:) I got to spend some time with my favorite boys. 

It was just me and them. There were lots of laughs shall we say.

I can't show the rest...in case grandmas and aunties check the blog;) 

I asked...

I received.

Thank you to Jacob and Cole. 

I asked, and you made me the best snowman EVER.

Merry Christmas to me:)

Public Service Announcement for today: enjoy that beautiful snow...because we all know it will be rained away by this afternoon;)

I had an extra special thanksgiving this year....12 more reasons to be thankful.

It was an international table , represented by Japan, Dubai, Ireland, Red Deer Alberta. Ottawa, and good old Sackville. Imagine the conversation, the stories, the laughter! We had it all.

And then there was the entertainment.....

It was so great.  I made them open the crackers and wear the hats. We went around the table and introduced ourselves, said an interesting fact about ourselves and then said something we were thankful for.

Apparently, according to Hannah, there are 7 interesting facts about me. Fortunately, she only got to five!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone:)

PS a big thankyou to Josephine Cochrane ....I will forever be thankful to you:)

Friends.

Happiness is:

Summer: where did you go?

But it was great, and it was fun, and I loved being with these two......

 

...the day after they became mr. and mrs. :)

Apparently...

at 6:30 am.

 

The cat with ten lives....

I just love birthdays,

don't you?

And ESPECIALLY, when there's cake!

Cake and golf...but maybe not at the same time.

Hope everyone is having a fantastic summer:)

 

 

 

Live and Fresh from the Sackville Market

oops

Guess we should have brought those boots in, instead of leaving them outside to dry!

Looks like Aprils Fools came 8 days late!

Some days are just like that.

Today.

Two of my favorite people.

I can't wait to see their work. See you there:)
