Before and After

We just re-tiled the kitchen backsplash, and I can't believe what an incredibly, massively, HUGE difference it made! Granted, in the first photo we don't have our stuff out, but even still, it looks so much better now...so happy with it!

Steveston

These pictures were taken a couple of years ago out in Steveston, about 1/2 hour outside of Vancouver. You can ride your bike for ages along the dike, all through Delta into Richmond. The path takes you beside people's back yards, and at one point you come across an old (still existing) farm, with cows grazing in the field beside the delta.

Hibiscus


Our Hibiscus is finally starting to bud again. Almost all of its leaves fell off over the winter, and we had to bring it inside. We didn't know we'd have to bring it inside, but I guess it IS a tropical plant after all! It will redeem itself if it flowers like this again. If not, it may go to a new home...

The Meaning of Contentment

We were at the dog park today, and an elderly man said to me, "Wow, you can really see the joy on that dog's face." THAT DOG would be THIS dog. And it's true. I say that to Warren almost every time we're at the DP (we've had to start calling it that, "dog park" provokes much whining!)
That's what I love about dogs. they truly do live in the moment. We could all take a lesson from that!

The "Wet" Coast and one cute dog

This was last summer, camping up near Squamish. This is such a beautiful river, we saw some people river rafting down... looked pretty hairy. Never done that myself, maybe THIS summer!

Friendly Monsters

These are some new needle felted monsters. I'm truly addicted to this new craft... it is so much fun! Warren is a little concerned that we're going to be over run with these guys in our small apartment, but I'm sure they'll all eventually find new homes!
