moi and my third baby....

So my sister took a few pictures of me the other day. As my husband would say...it is of me and my third baby (aka camera)...lol

and then a few of me in action ....

stepping out of the box....

Okay l know that these are a bit different for me but l love trying new things so here thay are...lol

my little sister :)

This is my little sister...well really not so little. She will be 29 this July and is a mother to two sweet little boys. She is simply stunning, and has always been this beautiful. I thought l would take a few head shots of her to prove it to her....lol

looking forward to the wedding...

These two are such a beautiful couple and l am so looking forward to doing the wedding this summer. Samantha has the most beautiful eyes ever. She is simple stunning and l know that on her wedding she will be breath taking.

Just had to share....

my family and l where involved in Earth Hour Saturday night at 8pm. We explained to the kiddo's what was the meaning behind Earth Hour and all the benefits of it. So on Saturday night we turned off our lights, tvs, computers all that we could and burned the candles and turned on the flash lights. Truly it was so much fun. The kids thought it was so cool. He talked and played board games and had a bunch of fun with the flash lights. Alyssa says... "mom can we do that every weekend"...lol

It was amazing to look out on the street and see so many houses go dark.

I pat all of you on the back who joined in this cause :)

a beautiful bride

These were taken last year in June at one of my weddings...They are such a great couple and are expecting a baby any day now :)

Happy Belated Easter....

I know l am a day late but l just wanted to wish all of you a HapPy EaSteR!
I hope that the Easter bunny was good to you all. I have to say the Easter Bunny spoiled our little ones far to much this past weekend and now there is way way way to much chocolate and candy in my house ....which could lead to momma eating LOTS of it. I have to admit l have such a sweet tooth for candy and sweeties. If it is there l WILL eat it. There goes the diet...lol

We celebrated our Easter up at the family farm. Like l have told you all before...nothin beats the farm. I just love it up there and the renovations are comin along. I only wished that we could have done our egg hunt outside but l think the kids would of had difficulties finding all the eggs under the 4 feet of snow we have. But next year Easter falls on April 12th so hopefully we can have our egg hunt on the farm outside :)

It was great seeing all the family. Lasagna was super yummy. Mom and l made her famous recipe that everyone loves. There was even a tray left over..... so that's what we are having for dinner tonight. YUM. My favorite. Kids had a blast and were even more excited when the looked out the kitchen window and saw a rabbit. Talk about make there Easter. We told him that he was checking to make sure that we were here. Honestly there was no complaints when it was bed time. They knew what was in store for the morning.

Here are just a few snap from the day. I have to say l was really busy. There was 22 of us and well l was busy cookin and socializing.















Okay and this picture was taken at the end of the day when Dylan and his cousin Mitch had a bit of a run in head but can of thingy and well Dylan got a black eye out of it. Poor guy.



On a another note l just wish l would feel better. I have been sick now for weeks and just can't wait to feel "normal". I was told two weeks ago that l had strep throat and was on antibiotic's for 10 days. I thought l was on the mend but woke up this morning feel really awful and unable to swallow again...so off to the doctor's l go for my second round of antibiotic's. The problem is the doctor says is that l need to be on penicillin but am unable to take for l am allergic to it...BIG TIME :( So now they need to substitute for something else. Hopefully this will do the trick this time. I hope so...l am feelin so tired all the time. Kids are doing well and seem to be gettin better. To me they always seem to bounce back faster. Which is a plus :)

Well again l hope everyone has any enjoyable Easter weekend. I know we did!

Okay l am warning you...this is picture overload but l had to share both the colour and black and white. I love both of them so much!. I just can't pick. I bought Dylan these sunglasses and well he thinks he is pretty cool in them :)...l mean he wears them around the house all the time. To funny. So of course l grabbed my camera and shot a few. I just love him. He always brings a smile to my face. What a sweetie. Do you like the colour or black and white? hmmmmmmmmmmm

answering a few of my fellow bloggers questions :)

Again l can not thank everyone enough for all the great comments and feed backs that l am gettin in regards to my photos. Thank you so much and l enjoy reading each and everyone :)
So a few of you have written me and have asked me a few questions so l thought l would do my best to answer you back. I hope it helps.

510jen- You asked my about the sizing of the photos in my blurb book. l did not use my pictures from my blog. I downloaded the from my PC...but l think you can down load right from your blog. You can write them the company...they get back to you super quick!

orange- you asked me what lens l used on our vacation trip to CUBA...l only used one lens and that was my favorite one of all lenses...my sigma 28-70 2.8/f...loved this lens you can use it for almost anywhere and anything :)

jenny- I love my blurb book so much that l am in the process of making more. I found that it was nice and simple. As for the pink rubber boots that my daughter has...l got them our local store called Giant Tiger. I am not sure if you have that store in your area...but it has great deals. I think they were only like $7 dollars. Got to love that.

So if anyone has anymore questions feel free to ask and l will do my best to write back. Again thanks everyone for visiting my blog.
And l can't post without posting a picture. This is the kids the day after we got hit with 50cm of snow in one day..Alyssa was using Dylan as a chair...lol

Okay l saw these in the store and l had to get them...need l say more :)
I love them

I just maybe addicted now...lol

look what came in the mail today :)

I am so excited...it arrived in the mail today. My blogger friend Holly was the one who pointed me in the direction of this book. I created a hard copy book with all the photos of my children from this past year. I love it...it makes me happy :)
The web site is called: blurb.com

















This is just a few of the many pages that you can create. I love the layout and it was as easy as pie. Great way to make your memories last a life time :)

me and the little ones have been sick

Not to much to blog on the home front....we have all been sick. Mostly with really sore throats...it's truly amazing how fast the little ones can bounce back. They were well on mondsay and here l am on wednesday and finally moving some what. Been in my bed for three whole days.
I finally gave in last night and went to the walk in clinic. I spent 3 and a half hours with a bunch of really healthy people...lol. They did a throat swab to see if l have strep throat....i have a feeling a do. I have never had it before so if l do l can tell you it hurts so much. Hoping to feel well soon.

On a happier note we got hit with 50cm of snow in one day. LOL. We hit a record of snow since 1865 (l think) that is what the weather man said. So you can only imagine how much snow we have now :(...i want spring...lol

Here is Alyssa all snuggled on the couch. Getting well.

introducing Miss M

Warning picture overload...

This past weekend l had a chance to photograph they cutest litle girl ever. I could honestly not get enough of this little darling. What a doll. She was all smiles especially when you put hats on her. Her momma said that Miss M just adores them. I so agree :)
Miss M also had they most amazing eyes. The were the clearest blue and you could just melt looking at them. What a sweet heart.

I think l am in love.
