Kaidynce and MacKayla's hair dying experience!

To dye or not to dye.. that was the question!



MacKayla decided she wanted to go red...


So did Kaidynce, but I only did the front of her hair, and left it in for only 5 mins, lol.. she looks to friggen cute!



Yup, when I was told I want to shave my legs and dye my hair.. I picked the lesser of 2 evils!!

Back in the saddle!

Ok, not saddle, but Gi! I started back at Karate last night.. felt great! Also felt depressing.. Depressing because 1 month before my 2nd degree blackbelt test (I'm a 1st degree blackbelt) I fell sick and had to quit.. I missed my test, and going back was really hard :( I did it though, and now I need to slowly ease my way back in, seeing as I really shouldn't be there yet.
Needless to say, I'm super tired this morning, and super sore!! But it feels great!! :D

Summer Fun!

We decided today, to just up and go to the beach... we usually don't just think of something and go, we usually plan to go. So it was nice to just go! We took the kids down to a local 'beach'.. it's really not a beach anymore.. but the kids had a blast! I took a ton of pictures..

Here are a couple that I really liked!

Kaidynce....
Collin...

MacKayla....


Thanks for stopping by!!

Well, that was fun!!

Mostly...
I'm back from 9 days at the cottage with hubby, the kids, some friends and neighbours.. between rain, kids that didn't want to get along, and some other hurdles, I managed to have a pretty good time.
Got some good pictures too!!

This one is my FAVE!! It is of our neighbour, Gary and my youngest. Gary, is the neighbourhood grandfather... just loves the kids to pieces... Here he is teaching Kaidynce how to fish!

My niece Keyanna and my daughter MacKayla at the fire...


My son, Collin at the fire...



My daughter Kaidynce and her dog Jayde at the fire....



At the fire on another night eating s'mores...


I have a ton more... but too many to share!

So EXCITING!!!

For me anyways!!

Today my husband and I went for a walk downtown and all of a sudden he's pulling me in a different direction... there in front of us is a TAPS van!! OK, we've been fans of Ghost Hunters since they've first started! They were here, ( ONT) filming at our Fort Henry for 7 days and heading home today! We didn't meet the crew but met a member for the production team.. of course I had my pic taken beside the van. Holy make my day! I bet if I met the crew I would have passed out, LOL!!



Just thought I'd share!
