Happy Canada Day

Hello again, well don't know what the weather is like where you are, but we have been hit with an unbelievably stifling heat wave!! All the more reason to stay inside, with lots of air conditioning, and color, cuz well sometimes we need an excuse to color, ( ok not really, but sounds good)

This month is mermaids.  I love the mermaids with all the pretty colors and the colors of the ocean. So much fun. 

so hope you enjoy my colorful mermaid,  she can be found at Sherry Ann Baldy's Etsy website, with the digi # ENCHANTED MAGICAL UNICORN SCAN 024

Till the next one..........Lauren

Hi everyone, I'm here today with mid April's blog for My Besties.  She's a cutie!  I chose this image cause I am going to be having knee surgery and I know that cycling, albeit on a stationary bike, not in the country side, will be a big part of my recovery and rehab. 

So enjoy the image, 



So until next time.............
