Summer is HERE!!!

Blogging has taken a back seat for now. With Summer finally here I've been outside enjoying it! Yeah for sunshine, boo for sun burn.


A friend of mine had surgery and she has a 10 month old boy that unfortunately because of her surgery she can't pick up, change, run after. So while her husband is at work I've been over at their place doing the running after, changing, playing and hanging out. I have to be there by 6am, which means early morning for me! Lucky for me I've been doing a sleep challenge that gets me back into a proper sleeping schedule :D No more sleeping till noon or staying up till 3am.

We (being Mr. & I ) went to the Surrey Fusion Fest yesterday and it was fantastic. Great music and a chance to taste all different kinds of food from all over the world! If you get a chance to go next year, go!

Next week we will be going to the island, YEAH!!!!
We have lots to do over there. Including visiting everyone that we can see in our short time frame, The in-laws 30th anniversary, Dr. apt, job searching, going to the lake and all in all having FUN!!! So exciting :D

That's all from me now

Slideshow of our Patio Garden!

With close ups of most of our new flowers and herbs!
It looks so Great now :D

What I've been up to!

So this has been a very busy last week. Mr. and I have been taking down the hedges at the back of our condo and putting up the flowerpots/fence. I took some photos of our journey and thought I would share them here.

Mr. taking down the hedges


Before, what our view looked like not to mention all the BUGS that were attracted to our patio!




And Now, what our view looks like. Hopefully when it's sunny out, and Summer actually shows up, we will get sunlight into our condo!!!

We made all the Flower boxes ourselves. Made with Cedar and then stained/painted brown so it matches the balcony above us (less that strata can bitch about the better)

I can't wait for our next project!
