Just a couple pictures of our trip to Medicine Hat this last weekend to visit Kevins mom. We went to Echodale and enjoyed the park and the swimming with Londyn and her friend Rylin. We also spent the weekend painting their house out there, we will have more pictures to come. They have a radiant yard that really should be in a magazine, so we got some great ones of L in their greenery. For now here is a couple to look at since I have not posted often.

{ Projects }

I have to apologize, I have not been blogging in quite a while as you can see. Our family has been pretty busy with Kevin coaching the U-16 soccer team every monday and thursday, with some practices on saturdays. Tonight they have a game for the playoffs ! GO TEAM !! Kevin has had a good time coaching, although we are both ready for it to be over. As most of you probably know this age group is hard to handle. I am surprised at how much attitude and lip they have towards coaches, refs etc. and due to all that, I am not sure I want my teenagers involved in sports if that kind of attitude comes out.

So now with soccer almost over, I am sure his next ambition will be the weekly paintball with his friends and family. Every thursday night they do this if there is any husbands out there interested just let me know!

As for me, I have been busy being a mom. I have gotten into making hair bows for my little girl and helping my cousins with their new found business PRETTI U. Although I started making bows with them with the intent to sell, I decided I didn't enjoy making bows when I HAD to. Therefore now I am just helping them with contributions of ribbon and helping them with free labour, so I can use their ribbon for my little girl and my own personal projects. That seems to work much better for me. I have also been trying out some new sewing crafts. My most recent being diaper cases I am still a work in progress in that area, but I figure the more I try it out the better I will become. Recently the new thing for moms is businesses from their home, and I see some of the things they are making, and the prices they are charging, and see that it is things I can make myself for much cheaper, so why would I buy them right?!? I have also recently gotten into scrapbooking much more which I am loving, I think it is my favorite out of all my projects on the go.

Other then that Londyn and I just go for walks and try to get outdoors as much as we can. I am loving this beautiful weather ! I hope you are too... YEAH SUMMER !!!! ( sorry their are no pictures, my husband has to get them off my video camera for me... I can't quite figure out how to haha, but I will have some up next post... PROMISE)
