DAY TWENTY EIGHT - CELEBRATE!



I know that tomorrow is actually the "FEAST" day in lent, but today is a real celebration for our family.

Today we were able to celebrate a wedding! Leigh's brother Mark married his beautiful bride Lauren. It was so sweet as they asked the boys to be in the wedding as well. They got to travel down the aisle in a cute little red wagon. it was very sweet that we got to be a part of their day. The boys did so well!!!

Mark and Lauren, we pray that you will have a blessed marriage - full of laughs and surprises, and joys and adventures! We look forward to being on the journey with you as you "grow old together". Happy Wedding Day! And have fun on that epic honeymoon!

Today is also Leigh's dads birthday! Happy birthday Ross! We're so happy to have you in our lives and so blessed that our little boys get to know you! We hope this year continues to bring you more joy and happiness! We all love you deeply!

And lastly - our boys are 5 months today! Who can believe they are 5 months already? Incidentally this is about the same amount of time I was on bed-rest with them too. Kai and Levi, we love you so much! We can't wait to see what the future holds! You are so special to us. Looking forward to many more joys! Love and big kisses... Mommy xo

Burstin' With Broadway!

Image
I've joined an awesome choir called Burstin' with Broadway. It is so much fun cause it's open to anyone that wants to be a part of a choir for fun, and all the songs that we sing are Broadway type musicals. We only meet once a week, and throughout the week we have a CD to practice with (many of the choir members actually can't read music) But it's so amazing to see how excited everyone is to be a part of this choir and how surprised they are at themselves for what they have accomplished. Somedays it's surprises me to. In the photo you will see some of the compilations we are singing this season. We will soon be singing our pieces in some elite places like the local old folks home...and our final concert will be June 10/06, at a United church in North Vancouver. Click here for the website!

The Art of Making Mistakes

Image
  I don't know if you have ever struggled with your "bits n pieces" of art being good enough for general public viewing.  I love to draw doodley art/tangles/words... mindlessly on bits of paper especially while watching TV or listening to music.  I would never classify it as "fine" art.  I do it to relax - and because I'm  trying to slow down, I'll often make errors in the process from impatience or distraction. They are far from perfect. Not poetically beautiful. Not necessarily powerful or inspirational.  And are littered with mistakes. A few weeks ago, I saw my talented son draw a beautiful picture and half way through, throw it in the bin.  I asked him why he would throw away such a beautiful piece of work and he grunted "too many mistakes" and then "Its not how I imagined it to look." Oh boy - did I relate!   We want to hide our mistakes or start over... forget that we were so stupid to make such a big blunder in the first place.
