Vacay!

 Last weekend, my family (with extended) were able to go away up north (Haliburton, Ontario) to a cottage for a getaway! We went from Friday to Monday, and had a blast:)

PS It was my first time "cottaging", so that's one thing out of my bucket list:D I'm not an outdoorsy person, but I still had a good time....LOLZ

Here are some pics:)




Got some reading done!

with the hubby:D


my sisters

We even had a chance to go to the "downtown" area to do some shopping.

with my sis-in-law at a bookstore



We had a bonfire our last night. My mom ended up being the expert "firestarter":D


My daughter, of course, was our musical entertainment:D

Do you like going to cottages? Where do you like going for your summer getaway?

Looks like an awesome family getaway chingu! Go mom with the fire ;p My husband and I are both city people so we've never been on a cottage vacation. We much prefer hotels and museums than the outdoors. Bugs are just not our jam y'know LOL

How fun, Emmy. We used to have a cottage we'd go up to. I enjoy the outdoors and love camping, but my allergies don't. I have severe allergies too. This looks like you all had such a great time with family. <3

Wow, coole Haarfarbe!
Der Urlaub im Cottage hat dir hoffentlich gefallen?
Wir sind Camper, haben einen Wohnwagen und lieben Outdoor Urlaube.

What a fun time! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy yourself and cross something off the bucket list as well. That bookstore looks like it was dangerous. It is always hard not to pick up a stack of books!

It's a shame that it's over. We were on vacation at the lake this year. We spent all day relaxing on the beach. It was wonderful.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
