selah in southampton

we spent the first part of this week in southampton.

family time.

it was a fantastic start to our summer!

we went to the beach, played at the parks, fed the animals at fairy lake, enjoyed some ice cream...

we do these things every time we go there.

i haven't had a chance to upload my photos from this week,

but here are two from our may long weekend visit:

you may remember this photo from last summer in southampton.

love my messy girl - and definitely seeing some improvement with the ice cream cones!

practice makes perfect, right?!

after a challenging day or two with selah,

it is so nice to focus on this photo:

my sweet girl who seems to embrace the camera these days...

happy weekend everyone!

hoping to be back with more photos tomorrow...

favourite things friday

great to see you back for another week of favourite things.

here are a few of my discoveries!

ben and jerry's if i had a million flavours ice cream - wow! possibly my new favourite. was just enjoying some for dessert. i had to cut myself off so there would be some more left for another day...
dance through the decades in style

more fall craft ideas

and i just want to share one more thing:

i love the school my girls go to.

"JFC is the place to be!"

today i got to watch emery and her classdo a skit in an assembly.

the theme of these assemblies is PRIDE.

today's was introducing 'P' which is for 'participating

in making the school a better place'.

great message.

then another class got up to lead the school song,

which was written by one of the teachers.

it was to the tune of jackson 5's 'ABC' song and it was fantastic.

the words were so positive and encouraging

and it was amazing to see all (okay, most of) the teachers

and students singing along with enthusiasm.

you know i shed a tear...

enjoy your weekend and i hope to see you soon!

girls with curls

just wanted to share a couple photos of two beautiful girls

who ventured with us to southampton in august...

katie & ainsley

katie on the beach - don't you love her hair?

ainsley with her perfectly 'groomed' cone, selah in the back (not so clean...)

treats & tricycles before a sleepover with our friends

so thankful that these girls are in our lives!

since emmy was 2, and beanie was 6 months,

they've had best friends...

i think that's pretty special.
