One year of love

Yesterday was a special day.  It was my first anniversary with Glen.  I just wanted to write something to let the world know how amazing my guy is and how much I love being his princess  :)


The first surprise was a personal delivery of flowers to my workplace.  And he was even dressed in the outfit he wore during our wedding reception!

One pink rose for one year :)
 The next surprise was a beautiful white antique dresser.  I have been wanting one of these for so long!

We're still here....

I won't lie, my knitting has been stashed away in my closet for almost the past three months.  The gorgeous summer weather has been keeping me happily distracted.

Here is the latest project that I cast on:


Sand and Sea 02
Sand and Sea Shawl
A few months ago, I purchased the book Coastal Knits by Hannah Fetig of Knitbot and Alana Dakos of Never Not Knitting.  I chose to start with the Sand and Sea Shawl because it uses the technique of short rows, which I have not tried prior to this project.  I think I am getting the hang of it, but we'll see how it goes when I get to the lacy trim at the end!


And now, here are some photos from a little hike up Turtle Mountain in the Crowsnest Pass that the hubs and I did on the weekend!
