Its been very busy around here. We had a lovely, low key weekend going to the dog park and a sugar camp and then bam the week hit.

I have been teaching all week :D at my favourite school and am there the rest of the week too! Overall, I have been teaching lots lately and loving every minute of it.

So far this week I have been teaching everday, 4 tutoring sessions in the past 3 days and a French presentation(done tonight, got an A+, woo) and 2 workouts and personal training, busy, busy.

I do wish that I had another time to workout other then 6am but I have to fit it in and the morning is great to get it over with and to start the morning.

Im looking forward to tomorrow night when I can relax with my hubby *today is our 9 year anniversary since we began dating <3's

This weekend I have a very special little girls birthday to attend, she is turning 2! I also need to make her cake...ah i better go shopping

A picture

Today is a blah day, a f*%$ it all day, so to try and make me feel better

the best picture ever.....

This picture represents fun, care-free, summer days enjoying the company of friends and family with a few drinks, lots of laughs and great memories!

A typical Sunday

Sundays are probably my favourite day of the week. They are almost always low key and relaxing, preparing for the week ahead.

Today was a typical Sunday....

slept in and snugled with my hubby as we awoke to the sun shinning in the window.

We brought our baby Dakota to the dog park and the sun didnt last long (there were flurries)

This afternoon I was in the kitchen baking cookies (3 dozen) and then no bake protein balls, while r. was watching the race.

We spent quality time together and had a relaxing Sunday.

Lots going on

There is lots going on in my life right now,

teaching lots :D LOVE IT!

Tutoring, working on-call for Peel at the group homes(getting more hours lately), taking my French class and working on my fitness by going to the gym, working with a personal training and being more active and eating well.

Lots going on but its all good and I am taking more time to focus on me and my wellness.

And enjoying a quiet afternoon at home with the hubby, sipping a lattee and relaxing.

Then we will be watching the Daytonna 500, of course.

Oh weekend

What a great weekend! Ever have one of those fun filled, amazing weekends that fly by?

Ours was, it was splendid even though it didnt start till Saturday morning (I worked Friday evening). I woke up before 8am to bake a cake for my friends baby shower, then headed to the gym before going to a nice cafe for lunch with my mom and sis.

Once I got home I finished the cake and waited for my guests to come for a sleepover.

These 2 little cuties:

Their mom said they were literally bouncing off the walls waiting to come to my house. When they arrived, we played the wii a little, played an imaginary game(with their rules of course) and we baked cupcakes. M. was waiting for "ritchies" to come home and kept asking how much longer. Once he arrived home they were both excited to see him and said he was gone a long time, lol too cute. Then we decorated cupcakes of course we let them each eat one.

We played Mousetrap and then changed into our pjs and snuggled up to watch a movie and of course have chips ;)

Around 8am this morning(Sunday) we heard 2 sets of little pitter patter feet sneak into our bedroom and whisper to wake us up. I pretended I was asleep and hubby told them it was ok to jump on the bed and wake me up, they did and had lots of giggles then I sprung up and they ran down the hall. We played and hubby chased them up and down the hall.

Then hubby made us breakfast and made the girls special heart and teddy bear pancakes:

The are 2 of the sweetest kids and are very well behaved, well-manered little cutie pies. It was so nice having them visit and of course they asked if they could come back for a sleepover soon and said Thank yous. Hubby said having them really maked him want kids :D

This afternoon I attended a friends baby shower for her 2nd little bundle of joy, another girl!

I was asked to make her cake and am very proud of how it turned out...

Vanilla soft sponge cake with buttercream icing and french vanilla fondant
I used a soccer ball cake mold for the belly and 2 cupcakes for the boobs
