What I Am Loving Wednesday!!

So, my friends, this will probably be my last post this week until next Tuesday, as we have the big wedding happening, and it's a long weekend, so of course I have jam packed it full of all kinds of fun!! So, I'm not MIA, I'm just having an amazing weekend!!

Now, onto the What I'm Loving Wednesdays!!

So, I am loving soooo many things today....

First off I am loving that I got all the bridal jewelry done, and even managed to sneak in a necklace for Ashley to wear to her weddings Friday as well. I love the way it turned out also...

Excuse the blurriness, I was using my iPhone....

I am loving that Hannah is going to be a flower girl on Friday, and she is soo proud an excited. She will pick flowers from the garden and walk around saying "I'm a flower girl". Soo darn cute, now if only her elbow and knees that are skinned would heal up stat...

I am loving that I will get to see my dad's side of the family. We don't see them often enough, so I am looking forward to seeing everyone, especially my cousin Melissa whose wedding it is. Her hubby-to-be is a real sweetheart.

I am loving that I am getting my hair done on Friday for $15.00. I am looking forward to having half an hour to myself on what I think will otherwise be a hectic day :). I love being pampered so it will be soo nice to get my hair done. I am just going for something simple but I am loving both of these hairstyles I found on Pinterest.

I love this one, but without the flowers, but it might be a bit overstated, screaming I got my hair done...

I love this one, I'm just not sure if I want to go with the simple back, or have it braided and joined at the back

Like this but then curly like the above one..

Which one are you guys loving?

I am also loving that it cooled off a little bit yesterday so I was able to have the windows, and front door open all day!!

So, those are some of the things I am loving today!!

Hope everyone's having a fabulous week, and has a fabulous weekend!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday!!!

So, it's Wednesday and time for my weekly link up with Jamie at This Kind of Love

I think it would probably be faster for me to list the things I am not loving today because I can't think of a single one!! I am truly having one AMAZING WONDERFUL week!!

So, for starters, I am LOVING all the good news we have gotten this week. Our car is fixed, my hubbie received recognition for 10 years of dedicated service with the fire department, we have made significant gains in potty training. We found out that our building plans are going to be built, and the builder wants to PURCHASE the plans from us, Hannah has been absolutely adorable!! All in all an amazing week so far!!!

I am also loving this post by Ashley over at Life As I Know It!! I love the idea of blessings in waiting!!!

I am loving the amazing weather we have had all week, and the fact that it is going to continue right into the weekend. This will nicely allow for our picnic date/water park visit with Hannah's favorite aunt Ashley!! (and uncle Mike)....

I am loving that I am almost done all the bridal jewelry I have lined up this week.

I am loving my new hair color... and I even managed to take some self portraits of me and my hair in my dress for the wedding next weekend!!

New dress and new hair!! Excuse the self portrait!!

and an even worse up close shot... but I'm loving my hair!!



I am also loving that we booked our mini summer vacay!! I was looking to go to Great Wolf Lodge, here in Canada in Niagara Falls, but it was CRAZY expensive. It has an amazing water park, and I had heard great reviews about it. But at $460.00 for one night, I think I'll wait until Hannah is older. So then a friend of mine told me about this amazing water park hotel she stayed at in Frankenmuth, (which is nice and close to Birch Run an amazing shopping center I have never been too, and we all know how much I like to shop and in the States of all places). It's called Zehnders Splash Village, and we are booked in for two nights, and it includes 4 meals for $460.00!! Great deal!! I can't wait!! August cannot come fast enough!!

So. like I said I am LOVING a LOT of things. I am sure I am leaving some out, but alas I need to get back to my beading projects!!

Hope everyone's having just as an amazing week as me!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday!!

Well, let me tell you, Blogger has been giving me a run for my money, not letting me log into my blog, so I apologize for the prolonged absence. But man I have had an amazing couple of days!! I'll be scheduling some posts, so that hopefully should Blogger decide to not let me log in it will at least blog on my behalf... if that function works when it won't let you log in....

Anyways, onto What I Am Loving Wednesday!!

So, for starters. the thing I am definitely loving most is THIS GIRL!!! I mean seriously how cute is she!! She literally brightens my day every single day!! I have such a blast with her everyday!!

This was Hannah's idea of golfing yesterday!!

And, as you can see in the background of that last picture I AM LOVING THIS WEATHER!!! I mean, seriously it has been gorgeous!! We have spend soo much time outside!! We are loving it!!

I am also loving our potty training successes... more on that in another post...

I loved Hannah and I's mini - vacay to the city, to stay with Grandma this past weekend!!

I love the amazing waterpark we found on Sunday, and thoroughly enjoyed, we will be going back there for sure!!

I am loving that all preparations are done for the wedding that Hannah is in (as a flower girl), at the end of the month, all our outfits are bought and coordinated, and Hannah's dress is altered and ready to wear, my dress is a perfect fit (I'll post about that one later too... maybe even include a pic of me in it...).

I hope everyone is loving everything in their lives as much as me right now...

I am linking up with Jamie at This Kind of Love for What I am Loving Wednesdays!!

Ahh!! I am loving soo many things today!!

I am loving my amazing family, and the great weekend we just had!!

I am loving the gorgeous warm weather and sunshine we have been enjoying for about 6 days straight now!! Fabulous!! Hannah is loving her "cool" (her cold pool - lol)!!

I am loving that my hearing with the Criminal Injuries Compensation Board is over, and it was way easier on me than I anticipated it being!! Amen to closing that chapter of my life!!

I am loving the way Melissa's wedding jewelry is shaping up!!

Yep, I took this picture of myself with my iphone!! LOL

I am loving Hannah's sweet little mumbling of "I love you mommy" in her sleep last night when I went in to tuck her in before I went to bed. It seriously melted my heart!!

I am loving that I am all caught up on laundry!!

I am loving my followers, only 7 more and I am doing a jewelry giveaway!!

So, umm yah, totally loving all kinds of things today!!

Hope everyone is having a great week!!

Amy

What I Am Loving Wednesday!!

So, it's that time again for What I'm Loving Wednesdays!!

I am loving our gorgeous weather we have been having, and that I have air conditioning to block out all the things I am allergic to!!

I also LOVED Ashley's necklace (seen here on the Bachelorette) from Monday night, and am working on making myself one similar..



I am also loving my sweet girl Hannah (yah I know what else is new...) LOL

I am also loving that the bead organization is 90% done so that portion of cleaning up and organizing the spare bedroom is almost done.

I am loving my Kobo, because it means I can donate my books!! Clearing out some more room in my spare room.

I am loving the new show "The Voice", it's really great!!

That's about it!! Hope everyone's having a great Wednesday!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday!!

It's that time of week again, I'm linking up with Jamie for What I'm Loving Wednesday

I am loving that I found this super fun event to take Hannah to on Saturday, so I am looking forward to a super fun family day out at Kidfest on Saturday. They have carnival rides, and games, and food, and it's all oriented to kids 3-15 (even though Hannah's only 2 and a bit she's still going to LOVE it). And as an added bonus it's supposed to be super nice out Saturday, so if we get hot, they have an awesome splash pad just down the street we could take her to to cool down!! Really excited (as I am sure you can tell...)

I am loving my new screen door, and so is Bits, she has been sitting in front of it the whole day.

I am loving the fact that it's much warmer out today, and it looks like we are in for a warmer stretch.

I am loving my new coffee table storage ottoman. After literally YEARS, of looking I found one that goes really well with our couch. It was soo hard to find a leather one to match, so we went with upholstered instead, but I am loving it. (I promise I will take pics of it in my room really soon).

And of course I am loving sweet sweet Hannah!! That girl seriously is my LIFE!!!

What are you loving today?

Hope everyone's having a great Wednesday!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday and Wandering Wednesday!!

So, yet again this week I am linking up with Jamie, at This Kind of Love, for her What I Am Loving Wednesdays, and I gotta say, I am loving a lot these days...

First and foremost, I am LOVING little miss Hannah Jane, she is loving this weather, and has been in a great mood for the past couple of days (I'm sure because we have spent soo much time outside), and as an added what I'm loving, that this weather is forecasted to stay for the next little while, right through the weekend.

I am loving this super cute swimsuit and floppy hat on Hannah.

I am also loving that she is all about her daddy these days, up until lately it was mommy mommy mommy, and I loved it, but she really didn't seem to want much to do with Eric, which made me sad, so I am loving that everything these days is Daddy.

I am also loving that I am almost done sorting my newest selection of beads, so soon, very soon, you will all be invited to watch me transform my craft room.

I am also loving the new lighting my hubby installed out on our back deck last night. His buddies were complaining about being under the spotlight literally when they were drinking on the back deck, and we already had the lighting so it finally got put up last night (pictures to follow soon).

And one last little thing that I would LOVE, is to hit 50 followers, and get this giveaway started!! So lets get this little old blog up to 50!!

I am also linking up Paisley Passions for Wandering Wednesdays, and I am excited about her Thrilling Thursdays link up tomorrow, where I can reveal my "project" I worked on this past weekend!!\

Hope you are all having a great week too!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday!! and Wandering Wednesdays!!

So, today in addition to my 30 Day Blog Challenge post, I am linking up with Jamie at This Kind of Love, for What I Am Loving Wednesdays, and Paisley Passions Wandering Wednesdays...

Some things I am loving today are:

• Our new Dodge Journey (you can read about that here...). I am loving this vehicle, we just had to put gas in it for the first time on Monday and let me tell you we would have had to do that long ago, with our Nissan Titan
• The gorgeous weather we had over the May 2-4, we haven't had a nice long weekend in a LONG time, we even managed to get some sunburns this weekend (boo to that..)
• That Hannah is over her first flu ever, that was no fun, I went shopping in the states on Monday and came home to a very sick little girl, she was throwing up for the first time ever, and let me tell you I couldn't have picked a better time to be away (something else I am loving). I'm a real pity-puker, so not having to deal with that really made my day, but I felt so bad for my poor sweet girl. But again on the upside, she is feeling much much better

Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!!

What I Am Loving Wednesday!! and Wandering Wednesdays!!

So, today I am linking up with Paisley Passions Wandering Wednesdays, so head on over and check out her blog.

I am also linking up with Jamie for her What I am Loving Wednesdays, because I am loving sooo many things today :)

So, the first thing I am LOVING is that I am done reno-ing!!! ( I mean as much done as we can be for now I still have plans to paint the bathrooms, and we still have to put the flooring down in the office... but for the most part we are done reno-ing for the next couple of weeks!!) I love that our weekends are going to be our own again, and we can just chill out and hang out with Hannah, I've missed this girl, even though she was here all weekend, my mom was watching her while we were busy doing the cabinets.

I am loving that Allison from is loving her necklace she won from Ashley at Life As I Know It, made by me (you can read all about that here and here). Thanks for your kind words Allison, I am glad you like it!!

I am also loving all my new followers, and I love getting new followers as well as finding new blogs to follow myself, as I am new to this blogging world. So feel free to leave me a comment if you are following my blog and I'll be glad to follow you back.

I LOVE the look of our main floor now in all it's renovated glory. This is just what we imagined when we bought this house, so I am soo glad we have seen it through. I mean we went from this

To this

Don't you just love it??

I am also loving the gorgeous weather we have been getting here, it was 24 degrees Celsius plus humidity on Sunday, it was soo beautiful, Hannah had lots of fun outside with Grandma!!

And last but not least I am loving this girl, I was snapping the after pics of the kitchen (and the pantry behind her), and she was babbling on and I wasn't really listening, and then I clued in as she got louder and louder "CHEESE MOMMA CHEESE!!!!!" and this is the smile she gave me.... How could I not take a picture of that....

And then she followed it up with this silly face that I had never seen her make before...

I cannot even express how much I love this girl.....

So, how about you what are you loving today??

What I Am Loving Wednesday

So I am linking up again this week with Jamie at This Kind of Love for another edition of What I Am Loving Wednesday!!!

And I have to admit, this Wednesday I am NOT loving the weather, last week was gorgeous, this week, snow (TONS), freezing rain (YUCK), and the roads are a mess. I vote we celebrate spring in hopes that it will make it make a comeback!!

So, on too the things I am loving this week. I am loving that we are gearing up for our new flooring in our master bedroom and Hannah's bedroom this weekend!! I cannot wait to see my expresso floors!! BYE BYE Carpet!!! So stay tuned Friday for the before pics, and then check back for the after pics next week!!

I am also loving that Hannah slept through the night for the most part last night!! That said, she had a busy day of shopping yesterday!! I tired the poor girl out really good!!

I am loving my new medicine cabinet and picture frame my hubby hung over the weekend. Check out the pics here!!

And last but not least I am LOVING all the sweet compliments my jewelry is getting over at Life As I Know It. Ashley is hosting a giveaway featuring my handcrafted jewelry, so be sure to check it out and get yourself entered, it's really easy. And thank you for the lovely comments ladies!!

So that's it for my What I'm Loving Wednesdays!!

Take care

What I Am Loving Wednesday

So I figured out how to do this whole blog link thing so why not have two wednesday link ups. I like the idea of this one from Jamie at this kind of love. So i thought I would join in and maybe even get some new followers, which would be something I would love (lol)

What I am loving this wednesday is definetely the weather, we had some rain this morning and it looked like it was going to be a yucky day, but boy was I wrong it has been gloriously sunny. I love that I was able to get Hannah out for a walk, hopefully leading to an excellent nights sleep. It was also a whopping 10 degrees celcius here, for Canada, that is great. As an added bonus most of the snow has melted and we saw our first robins, plus two canadian geese have made the move north, as they were chilling in the pond down the street from us with the other ducks that are here year round. It was marvelous. I even got some of my Christmas outdoor decorations down. I'll have to start bugging Eric to take down the lights. Check out some of the other what I'm loving Wednesdays here, these are some of my top favorites:

Stephanie at The Sweet Life
Brittney at Livin' Our Love Song
Jenn at A Home in the Making

So tell me what are you loving this wednesday? Link up with Jamie at This Kind of Love
