July 1st Canada Day!

In celebration of July 1st I wanted to post some of my favorite drawings that remind me of home. These drawings I did using the graph method which doesn't take real talent just a lot of patience. And it is so fun. I hope my family won't mind. I am excited to go home to Canada this month and really looking forward to seeing everyone again. I'm sad I had to miss the July 1st celebrations, we'll try to make it next year.


























Puppy Love


This is a little golden retriever puppy that we are thinking of getting. She really is so cute. Okay so the last time we got a puppy was a disaster. We ended up taking her back to the owner after a week because we couldn't handle her. But that was years ago. And it was a little dog, Bichon Frise. Well, golden retrievers are supposed to be one of the easiest dogs to train and one of the best family dogs. Very friendly and gentle. We are excited about it. When we visited the mother I was very impressed at her manners and gentle demeanor. She was also so beautiful. I'm hoping that this will get me off my butt and out the door for walks everyday.

Garage Sale Madness


Since we came from Canada last summer in our 17 ft U-haul we have been trying to collect little odds and ends to fill up our big empty house. When I go garage saling I like to look for steal deals. So this is what I bought today all for 35 bucks total:

-a bunch of toys, wooden table for scrapbooking, 3 lawn chairs, books, board games, backpacks, two camping mattresses, Dora tent, jewelery box, new purse and a couple stuffed animals (kid's choice of course.) What do I get out of this, maybe just more junk, I don't know. But it was fun anyhow.

Sierra loves this bouncy ball thingy.



I KNOW I will use these lawn chairs!


$5.00 table for scrapbooking and drawing. It will look great in the hobby room of our new house!





And what do you think the kids played with more than anything....My CARDBOARD BOXES that I have for moving to our new house!

Next time I do a garage sale:

For sale:

The best toy ever- filled with hours of fun, never get tired of it, comes in all shapes and sizes, wins over any toy you'll ever buy! The one and only "cardboard box- priceless!~"
For those who are wondering:
We have finalized the deal on a house in mission valley. 3200 sq ft, 4 years old and 127,000! Can't wait to move in August 15th!




Uncle Jon

I had many pictures left of our time with Uncle Jon, so I decided to post them cause it was such a fun week. We saw the temple just an hour before he had to fly home.
Disney again....


Disney again...




For the lucky gal who ends up with Dan's little bro: he is really great with kids!




HE READS TO THEM!!





Maysa cried when he left at the airport, it was too cute. We'll miss you Uncle Jon, hopefully you will come back soon. Maybe to attend Westwind school of Aeronautics and find that super lucky, super cutie Arizona wife.
