Hi there...

How much trouble am I in? Forgive me, things have just been so crazy as the summer begins to wind down. Let me see... what's been happening?... My cousin finally had her twins on the 12th so we all welcomes little Clover and Sadie into the world. Hannah was overjoyed to have it be over which I totally don't blame her, I can't imagine being pregnant with twins. Hannah's older daughter Alma was super jazzed to be a big sister and already mothers them like crazy.
Other than that it's really just been summer stuff. All the siblings (Kae, Willa and I) went out to dinner on the first which was fun. Nights like that used to just be Kae and I but with Willa old enough now it's even better.
Mom took all us girls out for shopping and a special dinner on the 6th. That was really fun. I know that we see each other quite often but I love it when we're all together and totally miss the days when we were together everyday. I guess that's what happens when you grow up.
We all had a Robin Williams movie marathon when he died. It was a very sad day for us all, especially me and Kae as 'The Dead Poet's Society' has always been one of out all time favourites. My love and prayers go out to his family. I know that he's in a better place now.
Ben, Kae and Willa's boyfriend Daniel have really seemed to bond this summer which Willa is beyond thrilled about.
Sunday is Marley's birthday so that is gonna be really fun. We're all gonna get dressed up and have a dinner picnic on the beach if the weather agrees which I'm sure it will as it's been beautiful lately.
Yeah... that's about it.
In other news I have a super, super, super huge outfit update for you all. Like so long that I am gonna split it up again. Sorry. I hope you're all having a super fun summer and hope that you haven't completely forgotten about me in my absence. I adore you all.

Hi everyone!

That's right, I'm back home and I seem to have brought the sunshine with me. When I landed on Sunday and it was pouring I was like 'Of course!' but I woke up Monday morning with the sun shining so... you're welcome Vancouver.

I had such a great time on my vacation. It was absolutely perfect until Friday night when while watching a movie with the kids I had a bit of an accident. We were just watching peacefully when all of a sudden my niece's cat (who used to be called Ice Cream but is now named Elsa- they're obsessed with Frozen) freaked out and raced off the couch, scratching the hell out of my foot. Seriously, it would not stop bleeding, she got me right between my toes. I ended up having to get two stitches. I'm totally fine but it really hurt and it's been making shoes a little uncomfortable. Ben says that it looks like I was attacked by Wolverine because I have three very large scratches.

Other than that though, it was great. Today, I've been getting the apartment ready for Alex to come and stay... you know, cleaning up a bit and making sure that everything Maddie left behind (I swear she'd leave her head if it wasn't attached to her) is well hidden. I've also been organizing the kids' Easter gifts. Anywhoo... that's what's been up around here. I hope you guys are well and all.
