Happy Birthday Canada!

Happy Canada Day!

We spent a lovely weekend having fun.

The whole family enjoyed the new Monsters University movie. It was Miss C’s first time at the movie theatre and she had a wonderful time. She loved having her own small popcorn bowl and sitting in the “fancy” moving chair.

We drew pictures.

Miss S made a kite.

Now onto Happy Homemaker Monday.

The weather …

Beautiful today and tomorrow (high of 33C), but rain forecast for later in the week.

Cooking eggs for lunch and enjoying the quiet. The girls have gone to the park with my husband and I am enjoying the peace.

Thinking …

That it’s going to be a busy week. Custom orders to make for my shop. Fun to be had with the girls and lots of organizing to do around the house.

On my reading pile …

Reading Trim Healthy Mama again.

  • Monday: Dinner out – celebrating Canada Day
  • Tuesday: Barbecued salmon with spinach and rice
  • Wednesday: Baked ham with mashed potatoes and green beans
  • Thursday: Chicken stir fry
  • Friday: Leftovers / buffet night
  • Saturday: Spaghetti bolognese
  • Sunday: Roast chicken with new potatoes and salad

On my to do list …

  • Laundry
  • Etsy shop orders
  • Clean my fridge
  • Write grocery list
  • Change bed linens
  • Plan out blog posts for this month
  • Paperwork

What I am creating this week …

New items for my Etsy shop.

Looking forward to this week …

Taking control of my craft room. I am slowly organizing it.

Looking around the house …

Looks a bit like a whirlwind came. The girls have been playing this morning and there are toys strewn everywhere.

From the camera …
