Weekend Wedding Update

 So in one week from now I will be thoroughly enjoying married life. Recently everyone has been asking me "are you getting excited?". And yes I am, but I'm also very tired. It was a crazy busy summer with work and planning a wedding at the same time. But as you read earlier my summer contract has ended and I have this coming week to do nothing but last minute wedding arrangements. Between final dress fittings, ring sizing, finishing favours, hair appointments, arranging the seating plan and finishing the playlist it is bound to be a busy week! I'm sure I won't even notice that I'm not working;) I'll be sure to check in once or twice with a few peeks here and there, and there might be a few guest posts from some friends in the next couple weeks so look forward to those also!

Every end is a new beginning!

 This week was my last week of my summer contract working at the park. I am always sad to see it go, the people I work with, the programs we run, the time I spend outside in a provincial park during the summer! But seasonal contracts are the way of the park system, and although I am looking for other options during the winter, Reggie and I decided I would take some time to breathe. So over the next two weeks I will be doing final wedding prep, resting after the big day, doing some much needed house/yard work, and spending some time with my two favourite boys.
And then... 
And then I think I will put some energy in creating something beautiful, or many things beautiful. I will be working a little, part time, but I am going to spend some time rug-hooking and sewing and finally giving in to all of my creative urges that have been nudging at me all summer long. I can't wait!

And we talked briefly about me entering a craft show closer to Christmas. Eep!

Have there been any exciting changes in your life recently?

Autumn is in the air!

This morning was cool, crisp and dark when we woke up. And as I leaned out the door to say goodbye to Reggie, I thought: fall is on the horizon.

It is coming.

With its frost kissed mornings, bright colours, blue skies, abundant fruit, and warm afternoons; autumn is almost here. I can't wait. Although I have to, such is the joy of living in a place that sees 4 distinct seasons.

I have been feeling poetic lately, and rather creative. I am hoping to share some of this creativity with you soon! What have you been up to? I feel so behind after the busy days of summer!
