Baby, it's cold outside!

It just snowed the other day - the first snowfall this year. It's pretty chilly. However, that means layering, boots, and naturally rosy cheeks.
Stay cozy.

This, Our Town of Halloween




5 days until Halloween!
I took these photos over the weekend in a little place found in the valley called Pumpkin Hollow.

Say it once, say it twice. Take a chance and role the dice.




9 days until Halloween!
The first two photos were taken by myself in an eerie town deep in the Saskatchewan valley.
The last two I came across while digging through my good friend Madlin's Halloween inspired photo album.

We got some new kitties this weekend!
Rescued them just in time to be cozy for the Holidays.

Et il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort.



Alors tu vois, comme tout se mêle
Et du coeur à tes levres, je deviens un casse-tête
Ton rire me crit, de te lâcher
Avant de perdre prise, et d'abandonner
Car je ne t'en demanderai jamais autant
Déjà que tu me traites, comme un grand enfant
Nous n'avons plus rien, à risquer
A part nos vies qu'on laisse de coté

Et il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

C'en est assez de ces dédoublements
C'est plus dur à faire, qu'autrement
Car sans rire c'est plus facile de rêver
A ce qu'on ne pourra, jamais plus toucher
Et on se prend la main, comme des enfants
Le bonheur aux lèvres, un peu naïvement
Et on marche ensemble, d'un pas décidé
Alors que nos têtes nous crient de tout arrêter

Il m'aime encore, et toi tu m'aimes un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

Encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré sa il, m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça il, m'aime encore et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

Won’t you take a ride with me underneath the starry sky, my pony boy?

Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross
To see a fine lady upon a white horse
With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
She shall have music wherever she goes

Get in the Groove and Paint the Town. Gotta' Lot of Rythm in My Soul.






Spent the day in Calgary wandering around and doing some exploring.
I'm here for a mini business trip with MAC.

The sidewalks are watching me think about you, all sparkled with broken glass.

I have cooked up what I believe to be is a realistic fairytale.
And I want to explore it.

She generally gave herself very good advice, though she very seldom followed it.




Spent the afternoon with my sister and a camera.

"There is no use trying, said Alice; one can't believe impossible things."
" I dare say you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible
things before breakfast."

Q&A


Yay! Who doesn't love a survey? Back in the day, I filled these babies out a little too often then I'd care to admit. I stumbled across this one a little while ago. Each question needs to be answered along with a photo. Sounds like my kind of survey...


1. your hair?
Is blonde and wavy.



2. Cats or Dogs?




3. your father: is wonderful.





4. your favorite holiday? Christmas.




5. your favourite thing in your room? My jewlery holding branch.





6. your favorite drink? Apple juice, Eggnog, Mojito’s, and wine.




7. your dream/goal? I wouldn't mind being marc jacob's muse. How cool would that be?! I have a lot of goals for myself. I'd like to open my own shop and have my studio there. Or be a writer. Or a photographer. But I must be a traveller.



8. the room you are in? My bedroom.



9. what is your hobby?
sewing.
thrifting.
taking photos.
making things.
baking.
drawing.
collecting teacups and perfume bottles.
having long nights with friends.





10. what is your fear? Failure.




11. where were you last at lunch time yesterday? With my fantastic long-time friend Katie at a new cafe, Tangerine.





12. something you are not? Timid.



13. muffins: are great. But I prefer cupcakes.
