I was asked a few weeks ago to contribute some inspirational table setting pictures to the Cafe Mom site. This one was taken the day before the deadline with a babe in my arms and much surrounding craziness.  I need to get back to photographing meals, I love these photos.

sunbeams and haircuts

hair

Sosi is very attached to her  hair, it is long and on most days very tangled. I love it long, but hate the daily battles for combing, hair clips and washing. I’ve been trying to gently persuade her to get a little trim for ages, with no luck.

Then I had a lightbulb go off, why not make it an offer she can’t refuse? Double haircuts with her favourite little buddy by one of her favourites of all my friends (who is conveniently obsessed with hair… she used to come and wash and blow dry my hair when I broke my arm). Bingo … one very sucessful hair cut, and 2 very happy girls.

bye

You know how even though you might love some guests, when they leave you feel kind of relieved to have your space back? Then there are others who when they leave, they leave behind a big empty space. That’s the kind of guest my dad is. He’s quiet and you hardly notice him when he’s here, but when he leaves we really miss him.

We don’t have long to be sad though, Nana arrives on Friday for a week! Busy times in these parts.

we got Pop!

One of the best things to come out of moving here to P.E.I, is that we get to see much more of my parents. My dad has made it a yearly tradition to drive down at the end of June with their neighbour who has summered on P.E.I for the last 40 years. This means we get to spend a good week with Pop all to ourselves (don’t have to share him with my mom!). This week is greatly looked forward to and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
