Kitchens I Am Drooling Over!

So on my way back to Winnipeg, I picked up the September issue of

Martha Stewart's Magazine.

I went Bananas over Pilar Guzmen's kitchen.

Gosh how I wish there were more then one picture in the spread.

I am loving the subway tile in the armoire imagine..wardrobe shelving!

I am losing it...losing it!

And this kitchen just about did me in! The brass hardware, the fireplace between the perfect windows, the brass kickplate, the herringbone floor.

The cabinets are from Ikea!

This was in Canadian House and Home.

I think last month. Check out Sasha's house tour here!

Loving it all!!

Kitchen Happiness

A great way for keeping fruit flies out of your drinks.

Oh this mug is darling!

Clever idea for keeping your sugar from drying out.

Sweet poster.

Cake plates and candle sticks....smart!

Labor Day at Rushford Lake

All day the these three kiddies were doing the countdown to the Rushford Lake Fair.

As tradition I dressed Elle and CeCe in the same dresses and we took a few pictures of them at the lake. All the chitter chatter and excitement was winning goldfish ( insert eye roll). I knew there would be great disappointment for CeCe as we were heading to Winnipeg the next day. I told CeCe she would have to give her fish to Jake and Elle and we would skype visit when we got home...you all so know where this is headed!

Dashing to the Fair

Just so thrilled!

Checking out the farm animals.

Ok this is were things start to take a terrible turn for the worse...

The gang has to throw the balls into the jars to win the fish..not as easy as it looks!

Trying to get back stray balls.

Much concentration.

In awe of the fish...they are thinking up names.

Three very happy and proud Ventresca's with their goldfish...

She is just delighted with her win.

Poor CeCe , crying her heart out when I told her the fish had to go back with her cousins.

Gosh being a parent sometimes is so hard.

Damn Fish!

H&M

Ohhhhh H&M....how I love thee!

A Fun Weekend

Last weekend I had a lovely weekend, my brother in law Sam and Erin and new baby Max came out for a visit. My best bud Kelly and her daughter Ella also popped in for a night!

It was nice to flake out at the cottage laugh, eat and get caught up on all of our silliness...and trust me their was a lot of silliness.

Sam is always so great with the girls he drew cute candy shop pictures for them to colour.

Made scavenger treasures hunts and made the best breakfasts...I highly recommend taking a Sam to a cottage if you are lucky enough to know of someone like him!

He is pretty amazing!

Erin was gracious enough to babysit for a few hours (wink wink ).

As Kelly and I tore off to the Galleria Mall...The new Anthropologie is opened ...and Kelly and I were dying to take a peek.

Erin also is so wonderful at taking pictures...these are all of hers that I have swiped off Facebook. Thanks sister!

Plus, do you see my cute cushions. ( yellow floral)

Last year Erin and I where in Target and I loved the Dwell quilt...Erin suggested I buy the quilt and she would get her friend to whip up some cushions...fast forward a year and they are beautiful...far to beautiful to leave at the cottage they will be some how tucked in my suitcase to take back to the Winnie...I am working on taking Max as well..isn't he the cutest baby..he is such a charmer!
