If I just had...

Do you remember when you were little and had just taken up a new hobby,  how you wanted the best of the best of everything. For me it was Basketball shoes. I truly believed that if I just had the right pair of  Air Jordan's I would be the best player on the team! Of course I didn't get the exact right pair and was never the best player on the team, but I loved Basketball and I didn't need the silly shoes.

The point of this silly little story...

If I Just had this Kelly Moore  - Libby Camera Bag in Caramel

 I would be the best photographer/super mom and I may just bring about world peace. 

French Breakfast Muffins

I made these amazing little muffins the other day. They are simple and delicious. I think its best to serve them warm. I like how the recipe makes 8 muffins. A dozen is usually too many for us here . These would be good to serve at a brunch fresh from the oven I thought they made the perfect dessert with some tea.

Lemon Blueberry Scones

These Blueberry Scones are my favourite. They come together so quickly and are fairly easy to make. I got a giant container of Blueberries for free at the Superstore and didn't want any to go to waste. I made these and threw them in a paper bag and brought fresh warm scones to Andrew's office for him and his co-workers.  Who doesn't appreciate warm baked goods.

I really need to stop taking pictures in my kitchen. There is absolutely no natural light. 

Road Trips, Weddings and Sprinklers

We made our annual summer trip back to the Island In July. I was worried how Jack would handle the long drive. He was AMAZING!

We packed a bag of dollar store toys and whenever he started to get a bit restless we would pass a new toy back. The best $15 I ever spent. 

We went home for my sister in laws wedding. We helped make all sorts of tasty goodies

They had the most amazing wedding. The perfect wedding, weather and celebration. They also had the most amazing photographers http://www.darshanphotography.com/ I wish I could go back in time and have them for our wedding. If you are looking for amazing wedding pictures I seriously suggest them.

Sage and I playing with the kids in the Backyard. She is so amazing she helped me make all the cupcakes for the wedding. She is growing up so fast, I miss being around my sisters. I can't wait until we  move back to the Island.


We made these cupcakes for the wedding.

I wish that I had taken pictures. I had just been so busy, it totally slipped my mind. Maybe I can find some from another guest at the wedding.

My Adorable Momma! She is so cute, I love her so much.

Jack had his first experience with the sprinkler. He was in love it.

I made this outfit for Jack. I made the bow tie using this Tutorial. It was super easy and came together nicely. I used this Vest Tutorial and I used the pattern from Handmade Beginnings for the pants. I make all of his pants and shorts with this pattern. I bought a pair of grey dress pants form the thrift store for the pants and the bow tie and vest were made from a pair of my dad's old dress pants. I bought the shirt at H&M and he wore his Black Chuck Taylors. He looked so adorable. He slept through most of the ceremony, which is actually probably a blessing in disguise. He stayed with my Dad and Asma for the reception so Andrew and I were able to fully enjoy the reception. 

All in all our trip was amazing. It was a bit hectic and busy but enjoyable. How I long to live near our family.
