Kempenfest Review

I'm still trying to catch my breath after the busyness of the past few weeks.  While I had great intentions of writing a post on Tuesday to review our time at Kempenfest, the calls of motherhood and wifehood were calling, well more like screaming.  There was so much that needed to be caught up on, so the post needed to wait.  

Angie and I had an incredible first year at Kempenfest.  We made lots of great memories, and met some wonderful people from our local area.  Here are a few shots of the set up time, and tent set up. Enjoy!

Busy Blessed Weekend

I mentioned on Friday, that I was heading out for a ladies retreat...and oh what a sweet retreat it was.  The parents of one of the ladies in our group graciously offered up their stunning home in the woods for us to enjoy for the night.  I got lost a few times on the way down, but I think it was mostly due to the distraction of the crazy loud music that I had blaring in the car.  To be honest, I didn't mind getting lost.  It didn't really matter where I was driving, I was a free momma for the night!  

Friday Photo Post and Giveaway

We've enjoyed a bit of warm weather this week, which has made for some fun times out on the deck....along with some great new tunes. A little while ago I downloaded the CBC music app for our ipod.  I've mostly been listening to the jazz and classical stations, but the other day I tried out the 'world music' station.  The mix is quite interesting...which for me is great.

Sweet Grace

You know those days, when the day seems to be slowly rolling by?

So slow in fact, that the clock seems to be your worst enemy because every time you look at it, only 33 seconds have passed by and the minute hand hasn't even moved at all. Could it possibly be going backwards?  So, you resolve not to look at the clock anymore, because it’s not changing anything anyways, and only making you frustrated.  Secretly you peek at it every now and then, thinking, surely it must be close to lunch time.  These are the days that I’ve been up since 5:30, and at 8:47 the thought of another coffee seems quite enticing.

Here are a few things we enjoyed this week:

* An informative life by design seminar by our chiropractor from Cafe of Life Chiropractic.  Lots of great information about living our life the way our bodies were designed to live.  He went into some detailed information about how are bodies work, which for me was just a huge reminder of how awesome our great designer is!

Talk to Sebastian or Katie to check out a seminar for yourself!

*Play time.  The random items in the diaper bag seem to always be a hit.  Which is my excuse for the reason it is always so messy and disorganized.  When they are done, I usually just take the heap of stuff and stuff it in the bag, and subsequently later end up shoving more stuff on top because I can't be bothered to sort through the mess that is already there. You just can't keep on top of everything in this house!
