Girls Just Want To Have Sun

I've fallen so far behind on updating this blog. So much has happened over the last couple months!
Before we get to the much anticipated photos, I'd like to do a mini catch up on Summer..


So much rhubarb!



Lap dog

First long weekend was spent at my parent's place due to our car breaking down on the way to the cottage.

Father's Day hang outs in Nonno's backyard..

Father's Day + Dad's birthday!

Flowers for Danielle's Birthday! This is my "just take a photo of the flowers not my face please."

Aberfoyle trips

Summer smoothies

Little posies I put together from flowers in my garden.

Mini pies for Poppy's 1st birthday!

Speaking of Poppy, I love how so many poppies grow in the garden

My dress, so much fabric on such a hot day

cuddlin at the cottage

Homemade rhubarb syrup!

I was sick of not having anywhere to craft in the house. So we made up this little bench area in the basement for the time being.



Old photo of my mum from a hair photo shoot.

Homemade rhubarb vodka!

There's just something so lovely about a house filled with fresh flowers..







And of course more smoothes.

Happy Canada Day!

Great way to start off my Friday morning. Up early, walk with the dog and picking berries off my tree!



These were the only ripe ones today. I haven't decided to use them in muffins or cereal. Yum!






Hope everyone has a nice relaxing long weekend!

Lighting

I feel excited and ready to take on the task of making (or finding) a light fixture for over the dining table. Here's some photos that give me hope and much needed inspiration to help me on my quest.

in love...

now where to put it...

Pros at digging holes

Privacy!

Finally! We have doors up! Still have to put on the sweet antique door knobs though.
We recycled the doors that came with the house and added on some mdf to give the effect of a 5 panel door.
