Happy Tuesday!

A couple of weeks ago, Ken took a Tuesday off. It was just a regular Tuesday otherwise, but he made it special! He went golfing early in the morning with his dad, so he wasn't back when we got up. When we came down the stairs, we found this:



Cora's is my favourite breakfast restaurant- how fun to find a poster with curly ribbon, announcing how we would make the day special!

You can totally use this idea to spice up some of the days at home with your kids!

Monday Moments #15

(Preparing to bring a surprise birthday cake out to Katie, everyone was trying to get her to cover her eyes)
Talia: Katie, plug your eyes!


Talia (supposed to be sleeping): Grandma, come up here- you have to see this! (At her bedroom window now, pointing)
Look!! It's the star of Bethlehem!

Sharing Time

Thanks for all of the participation in Sharing Time for the last two weeks! You may have noticed I've been a bit scarce around here! As promised, there are posts and giveaways coming! Stick with me, my husband says the computer is fixed- now we just need to transfer some files & should be good to go! :)

Now, for some favourites & then on to the link party!

I LOVED Mother Lode's baby clothes turned quilt! SUCH a great idea!!


And this strawberry trifle dress is adorable!

Heidi's Heritage Home

I found out about Heritage Makers at a conference for Women in Toronto. I was able to meet Heidi Arave there and have since spoken with her on the phone. She's great! Here is a short video of her, showing how she has used Heritage Makers to decorate her home. There are some great ideas in it- I love it! Take a look & see what I'm talking about :)

Chocolate Marshmallow Roll

A few days ago, Talia and I made a Chocolate Marshmallow Roll. You can find the recipe here. The original recipe uses some organic ingredients that I didn't have on hand. I used butter, regular rainbow marshmallows, semi sweet chocolate chips and regular rice krispies.



Give it a try- it's easy, your kids can help, and it's so fun! :)
