Tire Swing!

One of Mat's Aunts had given us her old wooden park set for our children, since we do not own a home yet we set It up at Joannes. They love it. Here they are on the tire swing.

Drive Home

Nothing like fake mustaches to keep the mood up on a sad drive!

Trip to the oakland farm zoo

Today was the perfect day for this really flipping HOT! But my friends Lisa and her husband Matt came down for two nights while we stayed at my moms. We went to the market, zoo, pizza night, bon fire, the beach, yard sales and my moms work! YAY It was way to much fun.

But here some photos of Jasper and Zuri at the Zoo they sent us.





Miss Nova-The next spokes person for weleda



Days, days and more days on the trampoline

My sister had gotten a new trampoline for Hallie her daughter for Easter! So we are going to take advantage of this great situation. We may have spent to much time jumping. Erica my sister looks after to boys during the day and they really got along with Jasper man! They played and had so much fun. We put the sprinkler under the trampoline and they had a great time!





HOLY Moth!

My Dad had found these moths outside on his house and Jasper was so interested in them. Zuri wanted to hold one. They are huge and the detail on them was breath taking.



Happy Birthday Catherin-Gluten Free Angle Food Cake..YUM

Now let me tell you how stressful making this cake was for my mother lol. 1st time it did not do so well, but it tasted great. The 2nd time worked like a charm with a few new ideas.  Enjoy the fine art skills my mother has!

Gypsy Summer

This summer we decided to get off the street we were living on and find something safer. Plus we are in LOVE with Shediac and really want to live there. So we moved out in May. We moved in to Mathieu's Family's basement. We were there for about a week. On Friday we took off to PEI over night for my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary party. Then one of my very close friends was in need of a hand. She wanted to attend a course in Halifax and needed a sitter for her 3 kids. So i took my 3 kids and went to stay at her place for 3 days and help her out. After a Long 3 days we came back one night and left for my parents house.

We arrive there around 10pm and get everyone settled. I woke up around 3am cause Karma our cat was having her kittens on my mothers bed in between me and Zuri. CRAZY!! The next morning when we woke up she had 4 kittens. As the day went on she had 7! They are all very cute. We stayed at my moms for 2 weeks then Daddy came to pick us up on Sunday.

Now we are back at Joannes waiting for our house to be ready in Shediac. We are to move in on the 1st of July. Then we are planning Zuri's 2nd birthday. My family will be coming down on the 15th.

Safety First

Jasmin Time!

One of my very close friends Jasmin fly into to Moncton once or twice a year, so it is always a great time. This time we went out for coffee and lunch, out to chapter and to the museum!! We only took one picture of her and lil Nova.

Sexy pose in your wolf slippers. Haha

Two peas in a pod

Peanut butter TOES..no pickles this time

This photo made us laugh super hard! It was our blog name minus the pickles!!!! So we just had to post it. The story is that Zuri was eating peanut butter toast and Nova kicked her foot into it!

Sister LOVE

Lazy Sundays and breakfast in bed, Zuri and Nova really connect :)



Daddy Time

Once in a while there is a very special moment between Zuri and her Dad! And here it is for all of you to enjoy!

Hockey Time

My Jasper man would sit at the window everyday and watch the older kids play ball hockey on our street. Since he is 3 i thought it was way to danger bay. Then DAD came home from being away and took him out to play. The boys on the street were very inviting.

More creative thinking

I made my very first felted wool ball! I was so proud of myself. THEN my dog almost destoyed it! GRRR! But im fixing it's broken wings.
 This is Jasper's super hero mask that he wanted SO bad. I made it very quickly while he was resting on afternoon.
 And this crown took me a while because I had forgotten about it..oops! But it is now done. Her and Jasper can play. He has a blue one with buttons.

Snow day- Let's Cook

This day was lots of fun! Jasper and I made zucchini cookies for miss picky pants Zuri. They are SO tasty. You would never know what was in them. I went to chapters and bought this great new cook book.


 We have stopped giving juice to our kids for great reasons. When we were buying it we were getting all natural, less sugar, organic juices. It still was crazy in our house. So we started brewing nettle tea and adding a flovor tea like passion tea or a berry tea andadding honey. Store in the fridge and give as needed. Nettle is so good for all of us. My mom should be the next spokes person for nettle.....starting to think she has a problem! Hahaha

 Yummy~ KALE
