I have a birthday EXTRAVAGANZA hangover. Ohhhh... so much eating!

So to detox, we decided to go out for a walk in the sunshine. It was like summer out there today! Of course, I love taking pictures of random cats that I meet and how could you not fall in love with these two? 100% cute!

An Apple a Day...

Thanks Moo and Trevor for coming out to play at the UBC Apple Festival this afternoon! It was a beautiful sunny Autumn day as we stuffed our mouths full of apples, apple pie, apple chips and apple juice. The Festival is held at the UBC Botanical Garden and will be open from 11am to 4pm tomorrow. Admission is $2 and $3 extra if you want to sample 50 different kinds of apples!

a day to play

Ms. Moo called this morning after a BIG bad morning so Rob and I ditched work and went to her rescue. We had a great lunch in the sun, some bad frozen yogurt and then parted ways a few hours later.

I had purchased two tickets to the Home Show this weekend as we love to watch Colin and Justin on HGTV. We scooted downtown and sat down for their 3pm show. They are just like on tv! Sorry the pictures are not the best. Bad camera + bad lighting = so so pictures.

Stay tuned... Apple Festival at UBC tomorrow!

Turkey Day on Mayne Island

Happy Turkey Day everyone!!!!!!

lotus events is on holiday visiting family on Mayne Island. (I use the term "holiday" loosely, as I have separation anxiety with my laptop and email.) Rob's parents just moved over here so we thought it would be a perfect time for them to make me a turkey to visit .

The trip over was a rough one! I was trying hard to keep my breakfast down and we hadn't even left the station yet! Things got better when we hit Active Pass - thank goodness! Rob's dad than picked us up from the terminal and gave us a short tour of the island. Things are soo quiet here. I am definately 100% city girl, but island life is definately a nice change of pace. Of course, I forgot the cable to load up pictures, but will definately post some when we return tomorrow morning!

Plenty of exploring and crafting was had by me this weekend! Can't wait to show you!

Thanks Moo!

Oh the lovely buttons we received from Moo!
