Day 72 - Happy 87th Birthday Grandpa!!!

Had my whole family over to celebrate my Grandpa's 87th Birthday today.  It is always great to see the family and have some laughs, but to spend time with such an amazing man like Grandpa is always a privilege!


This is Grandpa opening Haley's pop up card. :)


My  mom and Paige


And they way you know you have 30 people in your house!!!

Day 71 - and then it Happened...

I discovered these books through one of the girls I work with.  What fun they are!  They are actually "books for boys" but who is really keeping track. ;) 

So today I got to meet the author (Mike Wade) and get a full set of signed books.  He is from just down the road in Strathroy and him and his wife (Laura Wade... yes it is Mike and Laura!  LOL) write the books together.  He is definately not your average author-type as he is a prison guard by day and is very large and bald!  LOL  He is a great speaker if you ever get a chance to see him!

Anyways, now to get reading!!!

Almost complete.  Some pictures for the walls, new blinds and maybe we will attatch the trim. ;)
Sorry... no before and after... wasn't thinking about it at the time.

Day 68 - The PhotoBook!

So here it is!  The finished product.  Days of hard work for what I think is a pretty cool result.  Sure wish I got to keep it rather than it going to Haley's teacher. :(










(Sorry there are so many... but I had to take a picture of all the pages so I could remember it! LOL)

Day 67 - A Child's World

I'm cheating a bit today.  Thought I would post a few of Haley's pictures from yesterday.  I have been printing them off this morning for her photobook and thought some of her tree pics were pretty cool!


I added this cause I thought it was a neat perspective that adults don't always see.  The inside of her fort!

Day 66 - A Budding Photographer

Haley is creating a photobook for a gift for her teacher and asked to go outside to take some photos today for it.  Watching her take photos is like looking in a mirror! LOL  You will notice in the last shot she has climbed up her slide stairs to get a good view of the birdfeeders.

Oh my little mini-me!  LOL
