Day 33 of Project 365+1 February 2, 2012

 

Diane and I went away to Gibsons this past weekend to scrapbook. We had a great time playing with paper and taking pictures on our walks down to the beach. We laughed a lot and totally relaxed. It was awesome! My POTD for February 2nd is of all our stuff. You should have seen the place once we were all unpacked! It's amazing we were able to get all our crap into just these few bags. I think several of Diane's aren't in the picture! lol

Day 31 of 365+1 January 31, 2012

 

What do you think is going to hatch?

Day 30 of 365+1 January 30, 2012

 

Emily asked me to paint her nails tonight with her new crackle nail polish. We cuddled up on her bed and I painted her toes and her finger nails. It's kinda fun watching it all crackle when you apply it. The trick is, you have to paint it over top of another colour. Here we chose white to get a candy cane type effect.

Day 29 of 365+1 January 29, 2012

Emily and Paul went and saw Canada play the US tonight at BC Place. Unfortunately Canada lost 4-0. The American team was just a little bit stronger and faster but I know Canada is going to put up one hell of a fight in London! Go Canada Go!

Love how Emily captured a picture of Christine Sinclaire!

Day 28 of 365+1 January 28, 2012

My POTD for today is what my desk looks like at this very moment. This is somewhere I spend a lot of time. It's where I create and where I like to play!

Day 27 of 365+1 January 27, 2012

The Canadian Women's Soccer team is going to London! What a superstar that Christine Sinclaire is! Have you been watching? Can't wait to watch the game on Sunday against the US. Go Canada Go!

Day 26 of 365+1 January 26, 2012

Today my baby coloured her hair for the first time. I suppose as a mom I should be happy that she didn't want to die it purple or some wild crazy colour right? I just know how much I spend on my highlights and hair colour and once you start you're in for the long haul so why start so young when your hair is already gorgeous? Surely there are better things to spend your babysitting money on? Alright, ok, I suppose I too wanted to lighten my hair when I was her age! lol

So here's the funny....my daughter wanted to get "ombre" hair. Say what? Well, take a look at Drew Barrymore's hair lately. Honesty, I've been seeing this style more and more lately and every time, thought to myself, Good Lord woman, time to do your roots! Now it all makes sense. Those dark roots are on purpose! lol And, they're suppose to be several inches long! Anyway, for the first time I felt like not the hip and cool mom I always thought I was when the hair stylist set me straight! Who knew?!

Here's my POTD, my girl with foil in her hair, just like her momma lol

And, the end result...

Thanks for stopping by!

Day 25 of 365+1 January 25, 2012

Trying to keep my little birdies well fed during this cold rainy season. Today's prompt over at Create Your 365 is "An Intention/A Goal/A Purpose. I also incorporated my One Little Word for 2012 this year in this photo, Nourish. I love how focusing on this word and being reminded of it reminds me to focus and always brings me back to my goals for this year.

Day 24 of 365+1 January 24, 2012

A familiar site on my way home from work every day. Wish it would disappear!

Day 23 of 365+1 January 23, 2012

I had to go visit Emily's Science teacher today and capturing any photos of her in high school now is very rare so I seized the moment and captured this one of her at her locker.

Day 20 of 365+1 January 20, 2012

I've been noticing a lot of photos of little Lego people on Capture Your 365 so thought I would try my take on it. It's kinda fun and I think I'll be doing this again for sure!
