A Peaceful day on the water!

Today Ted and I went out to Beaver Lake, just the two of us, to be at peace on the water.

We fished, we chatted, we sat in complete silence with our thoughts, and just fell deeper in

love with one another!!

We had a truly amazing day on the water, even though we didn't catch any fish. 

We witnessed this beautiful sunset...and also got to watch the moon rise too...

Which I will post tomorrow!

All the fresh air and sun has made me quite tired....lets hope for a solid 7 hours please!!!

XOXO

Thursday's gifts!!

On Thursday Ted and I received this beautiful bouquet for Brent and Donna, Fall is such an amazing time of year!  And such a beautiful bouquet to feel the love and warmth of Fall!

 Thursday Morning we also received this note from Paige....she has had a tough couple of days and really did not want to go.  I think it is so adorable that she started the circle on the YES and when Ted and I explained how important school was and how many exciting things she would learn...she finished the circle.   Friday morning was a much harder sell....and the melt down began,....however we reminded her that we would see her on Sunday for soccer and that school was very important....the tears flowed until she was out of sight rounding the school building....so sad!!!    XOXO Paigey!!!

Girls Trip to Osoyoos!

A couple of years ago, Kc, Ana, Camille and I went on a girls trip/birthday celebration to Spirit Ridge in Osoyoos BC!   We had such an amazing time, rented a beautiful suite and had lots of GOOD wine!!   We wine toured on the way down and again on the way home!!  It was such an amazing time!   On the way home before we had lunch at Burrowing Owl, we stopped at the Heritage Buildings to get  a few photos!

Celebrating!
