Linky Love





It's been a long time since the last version of Linky Love was put out...near Thanksgiving I believe! It's time again for some great finds from the web, and if you care to join me in passing around your latest and greatest leave them for me in the links!
  • I loved this post on living without credit cards. We've been credit card free for..hmm...3 years now? We haven't missed it one bit.
  • I'm thinking of Christmas presents for next year (sick, I know) and these designs and ideas have been inspiring.
  • I found this 'real life fast forward' start to finish painting video SO neat. Was thinking of letting my children watch it, too.
  • Still going on your new years' resolution to eat healthier? This simple overview helps break it down.
  • With our kids getting older and being invited to more birthday parties, I loved this idea of having the child make this simple and fun present.
  • My girl Ani D is back. Ordering soon!
  • Yes I totally did ask for this for my birthday. I'm hopeful. :)
  • Um, cute, as ever.
  • Stefan has been researching wood burning stoves lately. Just think, I could have one of these beauties heating up our (future, far away, not-bought-yet-house) cozy living room some day.
  • Speaking of Stefan, he also said he'd make me this...and I'm not letting him forget it!
  • If you're local: two great new treateries: GUP Kitchen (specializes in local foods, and it's a food truck!) and Le Cupcake (gluten free gourmet cupcakes people!!)
  • Loved this titled, "Don't Carpe Diem". Amen. Amen!

How To: DIY Sand/Water Table

How To: Build A Sand/Water Table for Under $30 ! Sorry this took me so long to blog, but I had to have a tool list and full instructions before I could do so. A little history on my love for the sand/water table . I love the idea behind tools for tiny hands, i.e. the Montessori Method , and like to have Lukka 'figure things out for himself', even when he is playing. I try to have the most simple and basic toys available for 3 reasons: a) simple toys generally have less parts, which means less of a hassle for me b) simple toys inspire way more creativity and imagination than do 'exact replica' toys c) they are much more aesthetically pleasing to look at, therefore, not making every nook and cranny of our house an eyesore! I know the last reason is just for me, but it's true. Plastic things don't generally last 1/2 as long as wooden or fabric toys, and they are unattractive. For this reason, I started to look for a wooden sand/water table as opposed to a pl...

We've Gone and Done It

We are in the midst of packing up, and moving. Not just any move, but The Move we've been trying to accomplish for years now. We're heading up to (Washington) Canada. In the last couple of months Stefan had been talking to a potential employer up in Richmond, British Columbia , and after a very swift interview process they offered him the job. Small and large details aside, he accepted and plans to start on February 25th. We leave one week earlier, on the 18th. That's literally just over 2 weeks from when you will read this. We told family and close friends first, and while we haven't been keeping it a huge secret, our church, as a whole, did not know until last night because it was then we could tell everyone at our seasonal congregational meeting what our plans were in person, and with many of them all at once. I didn't want to say anything online until that happened. We've been steadily spending heaps of time with friends and family, all while slowly p...

{This Moment}

A portrait of his sister. From Soulemama's blog : A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
