JULY 25, 2015 - R + M's wedding.

We had a great time celebrating an amazing couple (Mr. & Mrs. R) Saturday evening as they tied the knot. It was my first time attending an outdoor wedding ceremony and it was so beautiful. Such a wonderful wedding - a gorgeous bride, a lovely venue and the food was great! I felt a little lost not having my little side kick with us. It was so hard leaving him at home sick when he needed us but we are so glad we were able to witness Byron's cousins say their I do's! I Aren't these handmade flowers the bride made just stunning?

It's been a long week at our place with a very sick Lil Man. Sunday he had a fever of almost 40 C and he just wasn't breaking it even with taking Advil and Tylenol so we took him to the ER. The doctor figures he had an ear infection and possibly a throat one too. He's been up through the night a lot more than usual and it's been a very exhausting week.  When I look back at the month of July, I'm glad to see it go. It really did not treat us well.

2015 Garden Update

Our veggie garden is taking it's sweet time this year.  The plants really struggled at first. It think because I planted everything a weekend to early in May. The Lil man enjoyed his first garden peas a couple days ago.  Still no cucumbers or beans.

Strawberries in our own backyard

I'm breaking the rules this week for "this moment". I've been meaning to plant some strawberry plants in our backyard for a few years now, but never got around to doing it. This year however, I finally went out and bought some and they are doing well! They are a little late but they are really yummy.

What better way to celebrate Canada Day than with some Homemade Butter Tarts.

Happy Canada Day!

Hope you have a great day! It's strawberry season in our area. Last Friday the Lil Man, Oma, Tia M, and myself went strawberry picking at a local farm near our place. It was a successful adventure as we came home with some yummy strawberries.
