Kristy passed!!!!!

Kristy took her driving test today…and passed!!!!!!

She only has one more road test to take and then will have her full licence, but I think the rules state, she has to wait a full year before she can take her last test.

The test she took today was a road test, the next one will be on the highway.

Then it was time to celebrate :)

Anytime we want to celebrate something, we usually celebrate with some ice-cream.
Kristy celebrated with Heather when Heather passed her last driving test, so Heather got to celebrate with Kristy :)
Now don't those look delicious :)
Did you celebrate anything today?

I hope you all had a very creative day :)

Healthy Eating Goals

How cute is my daughter Kristy, teehee.
Now doesn't this giant cookie look delish….It was, she gave me a teeny tiny piece ;)

I have been telling myself and my family that I need to eat more healthy.
I have been, to a certain extent, like I limit myself to a can of Coke on the weekends.
This I am happy with.
I do notice I feel bloated when I do drink one…or two during those days.

But I can do so much better.
Actually I think I ate healthier BEFORE I said I needed to eat healthier.
Now isn't that an odd one.

As most of you know, I really don't care to cook…I have dreams that one day I will love it…but that hasn't happened yet ;)
I cook because I have a family.
If it was just me, I would be happy with a can of soup or a sandwich.
I am not a big eater…but what I eat is the problem.

We all know that in the Summer months there are BBQ's, Smore's on the fire, munchies on the weekends and fast food for our busy lives.
And believe me, we have done it all :)
But now that Winter is on its way and I will be hibernating, maybe I will accomplish my goal of eating healthier.

Onto My Day:
After I drove Kristy to work, Heather and I went over to Ashley's house.
She invited us for dinner and then we were all going to go for a walk.
It was pretty chilly out, I brought two layers of coats and a pair of gloves.
As it turned out, we didn't go for our walk, but went shopping instead, lol.
I did my walk on the treadmill this morning, so I was fine with it ;)

I hope you all had a Creative and Healthy Monday :)

Using my Big Boy camera

Ok, here they are.
Here are some of the photos I took with my "big boy" camera.
Don't get to excited, as all of these photos are taken in auto mode.
The camera that I am using is a Canon 50D, that my husband passed on to me when he got a bigger and better camera for himself.

Here is my peony flower.
I just love, love this colour.
This was my MIL's plant. When she passed away my FIL told me to take it, as he didn't want to cut around it anymore, so it has a special place in my heart, as did she.

This here is just a really pretty wild flower I have growing in my flower beds.

I ran out of things in the yard to take photos of, so I went searching for some victims willing participants….my daughter Kristy and her boyfriend Blake ;)
The were willing ;)
My Kristy is tiny like me, I noticed in this photo that I should have taken the photo a little lower so her head doesn't look like its floating, teehee.

I think Blake was getting a bit bored, lol.

When we made our fence 19 yrs ago, I got Wayne to cut a heart out of each gate.
I thought this made a cute background for Kristy and Blake.
The have been dating for 4 yrs.

I think they were both getting a bit bored and silly by the time I took this one, lol.

I can't wait until my family from out of town comes for a visit.
I have 2 young nephews to take photos of.
Looking forward to my next photo shoot, wonder who will be my next victims…I mean subjects ;)

Hope you all had a Creative Day :)
