Vacation!

I love Quebec City!

I will be there for an extended long weekend and plan to take a few days off from blogging! However, I will be documenting one thing a day that I love and blog it all when I get home!

Au Revoir!

J'adore,

Dream a Little Dream!

I have been having the most bizarre dreams lately. Some have been super funny, some scary, and some just plain weird. Regardless of what type of dream it is - I love a good dream.

Good dreams just put you in a good vibe for the rest of the day. They wake you up with a smile on your face. They can even inspire you the achieve that happiness in your waking life. Weird dreams are sometimes off-putting, but they ALWAYS remind me about how creative and unique the human mind can be. It is fascinating to dream about some small bit of information that you actually retained somewhere in your mind!

Although it is difficult to love a nightmare - when I have a really scary one, my mood is usually gloomy for the better half of the day. But, it is very easy to love that moment when you realize that the nightmare was just a dream.

Dreamy Lovin',

Weekend Fun

I love that I had a busy weekend!

I didn't post on Friday OR Saturday! But, I had such a good weekend that I haven't gotten to my computer until now!

Friday night, I had dinner and a bonfire with my parents (I love bonfires!). Afterwards, I went out with some friends to a bar with some live music - so much fun. Saturday we slept in a bit, went shopping and went over to Jon's parents for a bbq for his Mom's birthday. I love his family - they are bundles of fun and just wonderful people. Today I did some grocery shopping and met Jon at the baseball diamond and watched two of his games. I love his games. I haven't been to very many, but it is pretty cool because I met Jon through my friends who are on his team. Thus I basically hung out with some of my favourite people all afternoon. Now I am zooming around trying to clean our apartment as I have neglected tidying up all week.

Love to the Busy Bees,

Theme Songs!


Last night, Jon and I took turns singing retro songs to each other from our favourite childhood cartoons!

It was so much fun! I love theme songs!

It is seriously impossible to forget songs that were so present in ones childhood. Especially for me! I used to memorize and perform Disney songs for my family (whether they liked it or not!)

All the memories come flooding back once you remember the tune! I serenaded Jon with songs from Aladdin, The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast, while Jon hummed the tune from the Zelda video game for N64!

It is so much fun to recall random songs from the past with someone you love. Of course, Jon and I didn't know each other as kids, but theme songs are like a shared bookmark of different memories. I learned that when Jon played Zelda as a kid, his sister would watch and read all of the commentary out loud to him (so cute!). I also scored major points for remembering the theme song to the X-men TV show!

My friends from University and I used to sing the theme songs to 90's sitcoms. A whole evening could be spent sipping on cheap beer and singing classics from Full House, Who's The Boss, Family Matters and of course - Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!

It is so much fun to recall these songs with someone you love. Once the tune starts up, memories and fun stories follow, and it always brings you a sizable laugh!

Love and Laughter,

Magic in the Air


Look up, and look around.

There is a little bit of wispy magic floating around in the air this time of the year. Gardeners and those with allergies avert your eyes because I love those floaty thingys (aka dandelion seeds).

I know right? They can be such a pain - many see weeds engulfing our country like a horrible plague, or the cause of their sneezing and itching.

But, I see beauty.

Think about how cool it is to see bubbles floating around in the summer. You know they are coming from somewhere, but you don't know where. All you know is that some cute little family is running around and having fun with them. I see our floaty dandelion friends that way - just nature having a bit of fun with us.

Lovely, Beautiful.

Sigh


Okay, I am human. And thus, I am allowed to be a bit materialistic. I try and I try and I try so often. But, every now and then something so beautiful and wonderful comes along, and I fall in love.
I love these shoes!

They are so beautiful. Alas, being Choo's - they are extremely out of my budget.

Sigh...

Lover of more than shoes,

Dance like No One is Watching!

I love dancing!

But, what I love even more is that it counts as a workout! Yippee!!


Love (to boogie!)
