song of the week

I'm all over this tune..

trouble by Halsey

feel good friday

I'm not a sports fan but these videos got me a wee bit choked up this morning!

Because what they say about Canadians is true...

We are nice and when the microphone cuts out during opening ceremonies, 

we SING your national anthem!

and my gosh proud dads crying over their kids amazing accomplishments 

is just the best thing ever.

Forty Portraits

love this- forty portraits of the Brown sisters, 

this project almost spanned the photographers entire career!

Incredibly beautiful.

shared bedroom ideas

I'm gearing up to re-do the kids room, trouble is we aren't sure who's going to be sharing...

maybe all three at some point, but the way things are going lately (and by lately I mean for the last year) the only one guaranteed to sleep in there is Oliver! 

Here's some cool room ideas for shared room

can't even get enough of this song, 

when I get my hands on you - the basement tapes with vocals by Marcus Mumford

Oliver's Library

It's been a while since I've done one of these posts

but I just picked up a few books from the This Is series to stash away for Christmas

and thought they might make great gift ideas, so a must share!

 book preview

I picked up the This is London, Britain, Edinburgh, Ireland and the World to start but am excited to collect them all! One of the greatest gifts my dad gave to me was to open my eyes to the world around us. He traveled a lot when I was growing up and it ignited a curiosity in me, a passion to learn about other places and how other people live . One of my goals is to teach my kids about other countries and cultures even if we can't travel there. 

First up learning about Britain and the UK, where my dad was born.

our home away from home, even if I've only actually passed through on a connecting flight. 

It's in my blood.and theirs too!
