It’s gonna be Hootenanny!

Haha…oh my! This is the advertisement for a group that performed at our church tonight.

I am not a HUGE country music fan ( I like some) or Christian music with a country flare ( I like contemporary Christian music) … a hootenanny? …but Tim Neufeld from Starfield ( this group I know) … and once you get past the hootenanny part…it looked like it would be a good concert so we went.

Well…it WAS a Hootenanny! But that’s ok. It was really good and a lot of fun! Here are a couple pics. Oops, I really should have taken a video…

And now I am home relaxing watching the CMA’s (because I do like certain country artists and love to see them perform) It’s just that kind of night!

 

 

Advance Polls

It’s not only election time in the USA this fall, BUT it is Municipal and School board elections in Nova Scotia this month, October 15th to be exact.

TODAY the advance polls open! It’s time to vote!

And before I did anything this morning, from the comfort of my living room in my Pj’s…I voted!

Oh, and by the way… my Abby Girl is 9 today!

Hard to believe this little one fit in a Timbit box…

 

 

There’s SoMeThInG FiShY about this EXPAT get together…

Haha Oh fun!!! I Love love our expat get togethers. Periodically we get together with friends that we were in Brazil and China with. It’s a chance to catch up but also to reminisce about the awesome times we had living in foreign countries.

This time Wanda & Curt hosted a wonderful potluck get together at their home in West LaHave. It was a perfect chance to catch up with them as well as Heidi & Stephen and Marlene & Stephen.

Wanda is a dear sweet friend, I love her. We share so many common interests and are of the same mind with many things. I love the way she expresses herself and her creativity. Since coming back home in May, Wanda opened her “Something Fishy Studio” and has been so busy every day creating and filling her awesome space with wonderful things for tourists and locals inspired by her life as a lighthouse keepers daughter and growing up by the sea. I have been wanting to stop in at her studio down the river and thankfully she gave “the girls” a tour.

Here our a few pics of our get together and Something Fishy Studio!

Fun times!!

Be BOLD with BEAUTY!

Today is a Shopper’s Drug Mart Gala Day! They have them periodically…Mother’s Day, Christmas time…and today. I have never attended one before BUT since my dear sweet daughter is a makeup artist there and since this particular gala she is in charge of ( the manager is on vacay) I decided to go for support, and also to get a BOLD NEW look!

I have always worn make up, nothing new BUT I don’t always wear bold eye makeup. I thought I would purchase something darker than normal and get Laura to give me a quickie makeover lol.

Vacation Begins!

Today my husband starts Vacation!!!

A little earlier than expected BUT because of the crazy weekend and lots of overtime he took an extra day. So he’s up early sipping coffee on the deck trying to get in to vacation mode.

Hmm? What to do today? WE have 3 days to do some things with his twin brother while they are still here.
