A weekend in the sun…

Hey guys!

Hope you had a beautiful weekend and hopefully it was sunshiney like it was here!!

Today is a post with few words –So many amazing photos to share!   We spent Saturday at a friends Winery – SouthEnd Farm Winery.  We spent the day under cherry blossoms on picnic blankets, playing with babies and watching their silly animals run around!!  

Of course I brought treats to share!!

Averie’s Raw Cookie Dough Balls.

Onto the animals…  This duck is one of my favourite animals of all times…

The market is right on the water, so there are lots of boats!

I went here and bought a bunch of flowers for my grandma for mother’s day!

Then I went to test out Starbucks new soy Frappicinos.

She was a happy G-ma!!

Then we had friends over for a hot dog/smore roast!  I didn’t ask if I can share pictures on the blog, so I won’t.  But let me tell you, they have the absolute sweetest daughter EVER!! 

See it was a great weekend!!

How was yours?

Ps.  Don’t miss the giveaway.

  6. I was wondering if I might see you down at the Market one of these weekends. It was such a gorgeous WARM day - what a huge difference from last Sunday, when I had to wear my winter coat, eee!

    I think Duckie is an Indian Runner - they are so adorable! I would love to have some of them on our farm. Great pics. : )

  7. Hi Jessica! The balls you made look amazing..thanks for the link back :)

    And the pics of your trip, that bean salad, and the fact that you didnt post pics of ppl you didnt have their permission on your blog...wonderful!

    I try to be really careful of that, esp with children. I would never want someone putting skylar on their blog and so I am the same with mine. Good to see someone with class and sense like you :)
