JUDE.

Just thought I'd put on a few more shots of the Birthday boy! Here he is, all yummy after his bath, wearing his new pj's!

Birthday Brunch!

Our wee Jude turned 1 last week, (where did the year go?!) so we had a brunch on the weekend to celebrate! He didn't know quite what to think of it all - next year he'll understand better what's going on!:)

Mom's yummy pull-apart cinnamon buns!

Table set and ready to eat!

Yummy orange cake, with creamcheese icing!

New toys! ( ..and a delicious neck that needs kissing!)

Sleddin' Party...the second time around!

FINALLY the weather warmed up a bit so we could plan a tobogganing party! It felt so good to be out in the warm sun! Thanks to everyone who made it!

Bits 'n Pieces..

..just a quick shot of our little girl, who's really into little things right now! This picture is for cousin Rebecca in Suisse, who is also a Bits 'n Pieces girl! We can't wait for your visit this summer! *hugs*

Ryan and Ash's Beautiful 'New' Homestead!

This last week we went to visit Ry and Ash's new acreage! They're busy doing renos before they move into their early 1900's + house! There are some things in it that are original, which is very cool... Here is the big red barn!


Their house is hiding behind the spruce..

The Mrs. with Jude and her baby bump! (Barely visible!)
