Happy Wedding (M)andy!

Here comes the bride! Mandy and Andy got married this past weekend, on a beautiful, sunny, and mild May afternoon. Mandy's craftiness lent itself to a very pretty and homemade wedding! The shawl in the above picture was sewed by Mandy!! We took pictures in Waterloo Park and then headed to the Butterfly Conservatory for the ceremony. Later on, we ended up at the St. Jacob's Schoolhouse Theatre for an intimate dinner and dance. The day was perfect -- befitting of a perfect couple like (M)Andy!

Here's the happy couple posing with their homestead in the background ;)

Becky, Amanda, and I dancing it up with our new-found pinata loot! Yeah noisemakers!

all cozy 'round the fire

Allie and Eden came over last night to have dinner with my Mom and I. (My Mom has been staying at my house to babysit me while Daryan is in Vancouver/Whistler on business). It was quite fun; we had my famous homemade quiche and tea + cookies. We kept the cozy fire well-stoked and chatted the evening away as we passed around the baby.

Well, I'm going to hit the hay; tomorrow I facilitate three tutorials and take a trip to the campus art gallery... I have to view the gothic prints a local artist has done of Poe's "the raven" as part of the class I TA for. I like bird imagery. I'm looking forward to it.


Here is Allie stoking the fire... wow! it sure was blazing!

ring in the new year.










i had perhaps one of the best new year's eve nights ever! special thanks go out to vancouverites tamsin and michael for hosting a fabulous party of imbibing, noshing, unwrapping, laughing, chatting, and dancing (with trivia, of course!). it was a perfect start to 2007. (see more photos of the evening at my picasa photos website)

it's a whole new year and it's a whole new look for my blog. i just love the idea of a fresh start and a clean slate. i feel like i can re-do, re-arrange, re-vamp on a monday (at the beginning of a new week)... so imagine how i feel on a new year.

i have many resolutions this year, as per usual, and i will share a few of them here on this public venue...

i plan to:
  • develop a routine
  • think before i speak
  • eat healthier
  • hit the gym
  • exercise in daily life
  • finish decorating
  • craft more often
Happy New Year!
