First Snowfall/ Snowman of the season - 10.18.2015

What a difference a week makes! These photos were taken last weekend - a week after Thanksgiving. These two were so amazed watching the snow fall. At 7:00 a.m. the Little Man started begging me to go outside to play in the snow. I'm not going to lie, I just wanted to hangout inside, sipping my latte and watching the snowfall from the window. We had lots of fun building Frosty. Luckily by the following day the snow was all gone. Hopefully we won't see Frosty for a few more weeks!

Breakfast at Cora's - Eggs Ben et Dictine - Tomato, Bacon, & Green Onion with a Latte

Last weekend we celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary with breakfast at Cora's. I waited 7 years to try out this restaurant and it was delicious. We were suppose to go there the morning after our wedding day, but we were just to busy the day after and didn't end up making it there.

The newly married Mr. & Mrs. C's wedding highlights... the fruit ice cream was the Lil' Man's favourite part. He didn't know which one he liked more so he had both. Luckily the orange one wasn't near by or he probably would have had all 3!

I'm breaking the rules again this week as I feel this photo needs a little explaining. This past weekend we took a day trip to Aunt R's place so dad could help with some things that needed to be done. Usually the Lil Man & I stay home as he does not do well with long car rides. He has an extremely hard time being constrained in a seat and sitting there for a long time. This time we packed everyone in the car, including the dog and hoped for the best. We took a lovely route through Hockley Valley. It was very scenic. All was good until we were about 5 minutes away and the dog decided to sit beside Mr. H and ended up sitting on his bag of cars. He was not happy with her. Luckily by the time we arrived all was good again and he was happy to be visiting Aunt R at her house. He loved all the toys she had set out for him. It was a lovely Saturday!

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.
