Randomness and Pinspiration

      Whew what a week, it's still busy busy 'round here as we are still wrapping up end of school year stuff. One week today and we have our freedom for two months, I can't wait! But it also makes me a little sad because this is the last week that all my kids will be in the same school together. Next year will be Nyla's first year of junior high (or middle school) which is a half hour away,(that is, if  we decide not to home school, but more on that later!) They grow so incredibly fast don't they?!   Anyways, before I get carried away to maudlin city, let's move on! Today is my kids Fun Day at school and they are so pumped for all the fun to be had. The only bummer is that it is POURING rain (as it has been the last couple of days) and normally Fun Day would be outside think: slip and slides, games with water balloons and sprinklers etc. Oh well, I know the teachers have a bunch of fun indoor games planned this morning and then the whole school is having a movie day in the afternoon in the gym. I'm going to go there in a little while and help with the hot lunch (maybe I'll even get to make some of the ice cream sundaes! Yum!)
      Anyways, like I say it's been super rainy here (normal spring weather I guess :) so I've been feeling the crafting bug upon me, and even though I feel it I haven't been able to do all that much, I've sure been "pinning" up a storm on my Pinterest boards :) I looooooooovvvvvveeeee Pinterest, don't you?! And I have to say, it's especially convenient to have the Pinterest App on my phone, so when I'm waiting for the bus, or waiting for a ferry (long story) etc etc Pinterest, here I come! I'll just share a few of my current favorite pins lately but if you want to check out more of my pins and boards, just click on the board on the right sidebar.


I've been working on learning how to crochet this year so these were really inspiring, and I just love all the colorful colors!!!

Next week is Canada Day (July 1st) so I was getting some fun inspiration for that

 And as I sit here staring at the rain pouring down, I can't help but daydream about some fabulous outdoor spaces....

But, most of all, my mind is yearning for these kinds of images outside our windows :)

and definitely this,

*Sigh*

See, I told you this was going to be random :)  Well enough daydreaming, I'm off to sling some ice cream!  :)
Have a great Thursday!
