Nerf War

While out in BC and meeting family we had not seen in a long time / met, we were introduced into the world of Nerf. Sorry, these are blurry - for some reason they would not stop and pose while they were being shot at. Funny right? lol












All this fun lead to this:


Yeah, Mr Hunter and I are in our basement - he bought this just for himself. While FaceTiming with family in the USA he even shot me with it - right in the face! It was funny / a little painful. The funniest is we can shoot the Nerf gun and Lucky brings the bullets back - even when you shoot him in the butt! 
Hee hee.
Have any of you had a family Nerf war?
Cheers,
Carolyn

BC Visit

Mr Hunter and I went out to BC much earlier this summer. We went out for his Grandmothers funeral which was sad, but the rest of the visit was really great. We got to see some of his family whom he has not seen in years and I got to meet some for the first time. We had actually really hoped to make a road trip to the USA to see these family members, but in the end, we realized we have to get this house done first.
While in BC, we took a lovely walk on Davis Bay which we drive past all the time, but I had never been on. I have some great pictures to share of that day below.
Cheers,

Possible re-Share

I cannot remember if I posted this table runner I made for my friend Chelsea - but just in case I forgot to, here it is:





I thought I had sooooo many hexis made - but this little project cleaned me right out / I had to make more! I like how it turned out though. It kind of makes me think of computer chips. What do you think? Too random, or kinda cool?

Folk Festival

The first weekend of August is the date for Edmonton's folk festival. I have joked several times in the past that it is the only reason to live in Edmonton for. It is definitely one of the reasons to live here though as it is fantastic!
If you ever are coming to tour this city and get a chance to go, do not hesitate, it is the best time on the planet. The organizers however are talking about making it so the only way you can buy tickets is to go to their office when tix become available (June 1st) and put your name into a lottery? Their office is in a residential area with only three parking stalls. To give a little reference as to why this is bad - three years ago, it sold out in three hours, the year before last, it was just under 2 hours - this year it sold out in less then 13 minutes!!! The line up to get tickets is going to wreak havoc with traffic as to get into the area you come off a very major road / bridge. I really hope they just stick with online sales.
