"Today is your day....you're off to great places..... you're off and away...."Shalaina had her grade 6 graduation day today.... imagine no more kiddies in elementary.... or at that school. It seemed a bit strange yesterday watching all the kids, most of them have been there since kindergarten.... Even my older kids went there.... i remember walking Manda there when she was little! Where do the years go? Cole will have his grad tomorrow from grade nine... although he thinks it is dumb that he has to go so we will see if we can convince him that it is "fun"!
So how has everyone been! It is hard to imagine that we are at the end of June... we don't have to get the kids up bright and early....no worries about packing lunch and the whole routine thing! I am so glad.....So far it seems that summer is flying by..... and we haven't really done anything yet.... Coles Roller hockey finished up last night so no more of racing off to the North side of Calgary for that! Yayyyyyyyyy! They had lots of fun though so thats good.....
Manda has about a week left to go so if you don't hear much from my end you will know why! I will post pics though as soon as I can!
Amber has her technique up at OLW so make sure you pop over and check it out.... totally cute! Next Wednesday it is my word up so make sure you check back, and you have until This coming Friday to get your layout linked up for the word "strong"! Happy Wednesday everyone!

Just Wanted to share....

some pics from a little photo shoot on Saturday!








We though Saturday would we a great day to do these pictures.... Shalainas friend is moving back east and I know they are going to really miss each other! Sharla and me thought it would be a great idea to get a few pics of them together before she left! It was lots of fun! While we were at it Manda looked so darn cute that we got a few of her too! She only has 3 weeks to go! It is getting so exciting! The winner for the kit from last week is up at OLW today so go and check that out! And it is word up on Wedneday so make sure to check back then..... Happy Monday everyone! It is so beautiful here tody....finally that i have to get a layout done really quick and then get outside! Talk to you all on Wednesday!

Happy Monday Morning!
Good morning everyone! It's Monday, the sun is shining..... for now anyway! It has been raining for days so it is such a nice change! Just wanted to share some pics frome our weekend! We attended Jess and Sheldons wedding on Friday out in Nanton....such a nice wedding! It pured rain up until 1 minute before the ceremony started.... which was outside by the way! I think everyone was a little bit worried but the rain let up for the ceremony! It was so nice!


How cute is she? we are doing the countdown now... about three weeks to go! yay! Hard to believe!


what happened to my baby?

Thats it for today everyone! No scrappiness this time although I do have to get downstairs and clean up my studio that looks like a bomb went off, so maybe I will share something after that! Have a great Monday!
