Oh Canana

Happy Canada day all you Canadians out there. The title isn't a typo, that is just how Julia says Canada. She sings, "Oh Canana, home native land. True patr-it lab. " Okay, so she doesn't know WHAT she is saying, hence the weird pronounciation and such, but it is soooooooooo cute. ahha. It reminds me of that game, Mad Gab, where the words are all written in strange ways and it isn't until someone says those nonsensicle words that you HEAR the real words hidden in them. So it is with the written language of a toddler.
For CanDay, Dave and i went to work at St. Jacobs. We had fun, as usual, i don't think i could NOT have fun in a day that was entirely with Dave. We are the best of friends you know. Sermons in the car, music blasting, talking together, working side by side, walking through the market, etc. I am so so so thankful for a husband that understands me. We talk about parenting strategies, discipline, company, food, life, religion, church, God, etc etc etc. what a good man he is.

Here is a wee dress that i am creating for a friend. She is having a little girl in a couple weeks. I am really excited about this dress, because i am finally discovering little quirks that homemade clothes can have....like the buttons i sewed onto the center of two daisies (you may not see them in this pic, they are on the top part of the dress) and the ribbon i added to the wasteline. The addition of little notions like those make me tingle!! haha. i am sooooooo excited to finish it off, bloomers and all!! :)Sunday NIghts are always crazy here: the sink is full of dishes, the house a mess, and we really want company over. i dislike sundays because i never do work on saturdays and then the house is a disaster on the precious sunday!!! anyway, this was the party we had. BANANA PANCAKES to pretend like it's the weekend, (Thank you Jack Johnson) which wasn't very hard since it was the sunday of a three day weekend....anyway. we filled a wee wagon with pancakes for our dear DEAR Karli. check out the link, then you'll understand the funnies.
Ah we love you guys. Thanks to Karla (on the far right) dave and i were able to go to a friends local concert that evening as well. CAVAN

I am so impressed by those guys. The talent that Dave Fraser has is incrediblely natural. He also picked an awesome girl singer to accompany him, they harmonize beautifully!!

Good times.

Anyway. i wish the best long weekend wishes to all. Please pray for my Oma, she is in dire need of physical healing. Thank you.

love from sue
