Hey guys! So I cant say that this weekend was the least bit relaxing although it was Canada Day and thankfully had an extra day off … that time was spent at the house working on the basement. I cant wait for everything to come together … but everything is really starting to take shape (I am sitting on what is soon to be our “box window” on the outside of our master bedroom in the first picture). We did however, take some time to go out for some drinks and pizza made in a natural wood burning stove (so good!) with J’s parents and for some ice cream at La Paloma (kind of expensive but worth it for every bite). I wore a very casual outfit … a pair of green cargo pants (sort of a army crossed with mint green colour – my fave) with a white tank and my new Birkenstock sandals. Now onto the sandals… I found these at a consignment shop and they were practically new for $20! I had wanted a pair of comfortable casual sandals and these are it! I have really flat feet so sometimes its hard for me to find sandals that I like .. but these are absolute perfection and $20 versus the usual $100 price tag is good in my books!
I also got to meet my neighbours dog for the first time … he is such a cutie and loves attention! He weighs almost as much as I do … haha …
Well, I am off to paint my nails a light blue colour by Essie called “Borrowed and Blue” from the Wedding collection …. its a light sky blue colour. I picked it up for $6 on my lunch break at work … I feel like after a hard days work … I like to wind down by taking a bath … a cool one today because it was sweltering hot … and then clean up my grimy fingertips and painting them a fresh colour … there are will be no tell tale signs that these hands were ever working in dirt! Then its off to bed for me …
Hope you all had a great weekend!

Loving your hair!
Even before I clicked on the "1 rantings" link in order to leave a comment, I was going to write something similar to the previous post....hair looks stellar!
Cool box window! It'll look great once it all finished up!
P.S. cool dog
WOW are you building your new place from scratch?! Loving your not-so-frquent-but-awesome posts. Miss your blog!
Champagne Kisses & Conrad The Great- thanks! .. the hair was literally washed and air dried ...sometimes less effort = more I guess :)
Annie - Not completely from scratch but pretty much - we still have a lot of work ahead of us but most of the "big stuff" is out of the way at least! I really wish I had more to post but I really dont want this to become a wedding/home blog... and thats pretty much what has been consuming my time right now! I will still be posting as often as I can :)
I hope the house will be ready soon!
That dog is soooo cute!
I think people would love if your current blog became a wedding and home blog as well :)
