OVERDUE UPDATE ...

The weeks are getting away so quickly .... here's what i've/we've been up to in the last few weeks.

I hosted a flocking workshop at SnB ... just loooooved playing with this stuff ... here is the LO we created:



I am currently working on a few projects using gorgeous new products from Bella, Pink Paislee, DreamStreet & Maya Road ... will share some sneek peaks soon!

Last week was our annual trip to the snow ... 26 of us! As usual, we had a great time ;however, unfortunately there was also a downside to this year's trip with 2 of our families having to pack up and leave early when news came through that their father's had passed away ... one of them a day after we arrived, the other in the middle of the week ... it was quite unbelievable that such sad new could strike twice in one week with 2 seperate familes within our group and just prior to Father's Day.


Here are a few of the many hundred pics taken:

It wouldn't be the snow if the kids didn't get to build one of these!


You know it's cold when the railings around the resort deck look like this!


A real wintery wonderland feeling!


The scenery leaving the snowfields on our last day!


Our little 3yr old godson Nicholas at Milo SkiSchool!


Blake & Nicholas.


Some of the kids.


Snowfight action shot!

After our wonderful week in the snow we are back to reality ... back to work, school and day to day routine; but, we are on the countdown to our big holiday ... we're all feeling a little excited ...



ONLY 2.5 WEEKS TO GO!!

Hope you are having a great week.

Keep Smiling :O)
