Snow, Star Wars & Chaos

April 28, 2011

You can’t see it in the photos, but it was snowing while I was taking these pictures! Crazy days. I figured since it was snowing, I was allowed to wear one of my favourite shawls again. I am in full on preparation mode for Jude’s birthday – he’s 4 tomorrow! We are having a Star … More Snow, Star Wars & Chaos

A Rant & A Rave About Forever 21

April 27, 2011

One of the things I like about going to see my sister & her family in Tacoma (besides all the good family times, of course), is visiting stores we don’t have in wee Bend. I was super excited about going to H&M this past weekend – I’ve found lots of fun stuff there in the … More A Rant & A Rave About Forever 21

Did you mug a doll for that hat?

April 25, 2011

I got quite a few comments at church on my little top hat. Mostly good, but also a bit taken aback. My husband was fairly cheeky about my wee little hat – he liked the rest of my Easter outfit, but thought the little hat was slightly ridiculous. I love it though! One lady asked … More Did you mug a doll for that hat?

Twas the Day Before Easter

April 23, 2011

What a beautiful day in my sister’s neighbourhood! We had a lovely day as a family. We took the boys to an Easter egg hunt at a local church – lots of fun. What a great church – reaching out to the community. The boys loved looking for the eggs. Home again for lunch & … More Twas the Day Before Easter

Challenge #4 Passover

April 22, 2011

It’s Good Friday. I love this Easter season – the idea of Spring, the candy, the eggs, the kid’s excitement, but most especially the reminder of life & resurrection. Tonight, my Mom organised a Passover meal for us. My sister, my Mom & I all prepared various dishes & my Dad led us through the … More Challenge #4 Passover

It's a Very Good Friday

April 22, 2011

What a beautiful day. Good Friday commemorates a dark event, but the “deeper magic” is already at work. We have cause to celebrate. I am with my parents, my sister, her family & my family & it is good. So thankful for times together – seeing our children grow together. We are having a very … More It's a Very Good Friday

Maundy, Maundy, Can't Trust That Day

April 21, 2011

Woke up to more snow today, yes, snow. It’s all good. It didn’t last long. Kind of messed with some travel plans, but it all turned out ok. So thankful for times of celebration & joy with our family. Not much time to post, but took a quick picture of my outfit today. Shirt: Torrid … More Maundy, Maundy, Can't Trust That Day

Challenge #3 Beef Fajitas

April 20, 2011

OK, so I wasn’t real quick on the uptake this week. I knew that I wanted to make fajitas this week, but hadn’t found a recipe before I went shopping – I thought that I was bound to have whatever the recipe called for. When I finally went looking for recipes, it turns out I had … More Challenge #3 Beef Fajitas

Busy Day, Comfy Clothes

April 20, 2011

Super busy day today, so I dressed comfy & casual. I also realised when I took my photos that I have no accessories on today – shocking! I really love this outfit though – so simple & off the charts comfortable. I always love wearing my bright pink flats – so Springy. I am so … More Busy Day, Comfy Clothes

Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed?

April 18, 2011

What a beautiful morning. And I actually got to sleep easily last night. I have this thing about Sunday nights. It’s weird, & frustrating. For some reason, I often have a difficult time getting to sleep on Sunday nights. My mind is racing, thinking about the week ahead & all that I need to do. … More Bright Eyed & Bushy Tailed?
