We're back!

Hello! We are back and have been settled in for about a week from our trip off the Island. The girls went to the dance festival over there. They took three pieces over and won silver for each. We also went to the zoo while we were there. Here are some of the photos...

The girls and their metals...

I also made a mini album of some of my favourite quotes. I sprayed paint and mists on the tags and bound it using my bind-it-all. All the quotes I used are ones I either live by, need inspiration from or have lived. :) Here are the list of quotes I used:

You cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind. -Author Unknown

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. -Albert Einstein

The more difficulties one has to encounter, within and without, the more significant and the higher in inspiration his life will be. -Horace Bushnell

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. -Helen Keller

After the game,the king and the pawn go into the same box. -Italian Proverb

Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

No man is happy who does not think himself so. -Publilius Syrus

There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because his conscience tells him it is right.... -Martin Luther

It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness. -Chinese Proverb

You will never "find" time for anything. If you want time, you must make it. -Charles Bruxton

Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them. -Leo Tolstoy

I have finally heard from my doctor about the surgery I need. The MRI confirmed what he suspected. Although there is not yet a date set up, that's how the waiting lists are here, it will be happening sometime during the summer or possibly right after the summer. I'm just glad I don't have to wait two years like a lot of people end up doing. I'm still scared of the surgery but I think I will be in a happier place afterwards, so I'm looking forward to getting my life back again.

We took our little guy in to get his first haircut!!! Check out the before and after!

Cute, huh?

Thanks for peeking :)
