an attitude of gratitude

Today we are thankful for...

• The beautiful sunshine! All the leaves have popped, the lilacs are growing, spring is HERE : ) We survived another Canadian winter.

 
• A weekend of showering love on two special women in our lives..a good friend's baby shower, and our sister Elese's first wedding shower! So much fun girl time spent with our mom and grandmother.

• This artist Rob Ryan and his:out-of- this- world paper cut outs. Each one is so amazing! 

• The Tulip Festival! Here in Ottawa tulips are everywhere, and we love them.They are so pretty and the fact that our city has a whole festival dedicated to a flower..big love.

• for the Lawn Bowling Yard sale, and the lovely seniors who organize it every year.

• for the Lumineers and their happy song: Ho Hey It makes us smile. 

• The fact that it's the Month of May and it's dedicated to Our Lady

•  Watching our little seedlings come to life. Hello summer squash!

• The way the new leaves on the maple trees look like they are covered in little light green pompoms. 

• Charlotte was accepted again into the New Art Festival  Yay!! : )
