Well my inspiration today is my little one Addy. I mean what can you say she is my inspiration for everything these days. Her smile brings joy to everyone around her. She is very special and is very loved! I can't believe she will be one in a month. Where did the time go? I'm also back to work soon. I am going to miss her so much.

plants in the yard




I was trying to figure out what todays pictures will be until I looked outside and thought well I have some beauty in the yard. So here are some flowers, and grapes... YES I have grapes in the yard.
It's a hot day, and the house is staying cool. Today I helped Penny pick up her new bike. I'm very excited to get my chariot. I really don't have to much to say today. I'm a little tired and I think mentally drained.

People and Feet


Well I'm taking a bit of a journey and following the footsteps of a dear friend of mine Julie. She has been blogging everyday and showing pictures that she has taken (see links section). So today while listening to our PM talk, I looked around and took pictures of the crowds, and feet. Yes your heard me feet. I just thought wow, look at all the different pairs of shoes. So my picture of the day is feet.

Shyte and Snow birds




Well it's been awhile since i have written here. Alot is going on.

First of all this morning was a HUGE surprise. Walking into Addy's room, there was an odor of shyte (no other way to put it) not thinking much of it, until we walked up to her crib!!! It was everywhere. Bed sheets, clothes, hands hair, face, sheets, bed bumper, shall I go on!!! So my little angel had a morning bath, and her room aired out.

My mom purchased a bike for me, and I can't tell you the freedom I feel when I ride. Today I rod 13km. It was amazing. I need to add some bits to the bike (bell, rack on the back). This week I should be getting the Chariot, which means Addy will be able to come with me!

Now today was BC's 150 birthday, and Penny and I went down to the Legislature to listen to our PM talk and open the ceremonies. Alot of blah blah, but the best part was the snowbirds. They were amazing. I took some really amazing photos, they flew right over us. I had goose bumps just watching them.

Beat the heat

Wow summer is here! I wish I could be working with clay, but it's just to warm to even touch the stuff. I have miniature donuts that require icing!!! On that note I finally tried my vibrating tumbler. After reading up on it, I decided I would try plastic pellets, and you know it seems to be working. I'm really happy with how the beads are turning out.

On that note, I have taken (surprise surprise) more pics of Addy. The camera just loves her!
Anyways to see the pics click here

Enjoying the nice weather, and putting my feet up, happy trails to all
