"Upsy Daisy Designs" New Lines

CHA Summer 2010 is but a few weeks away and Manufacturers have started the slow tease :)

"Upsy Daisy Designs" is not disappointing their fans, and their two new lines are sure to be a hit with everyone.

So, without further ado, here are "Avalanche" and "Home Sweet Home"...

So, do you have a favourite?

My Dad left today, after spending almost 4 weeks with us.
The past few days have been sad for all of us as we dreaded the dawning of today.

But today came and went, and at this moment he is on his way to London...

This must have been the best few days I remember spending with my father, as an adult.
I'm going to miss him so much.

Through the past 10 years we have certainly had our ups and downs.
But the last 4 weeks have shown me that those parent/child bonds never lose their strength for even a second...

I love you, Dad.
(yes, that's me acting all macho-girly in the snow...and getting wet at it.My Dad was asking "Now, what's wrong with you? You're gonna get a cold"...oh yeah, and don't forget my awsome posture...I look like I'm pregnant...with a pod of Killer Whales...)

Getting Close...

"Casa del Naidoo" is almost finished.

And it's looking goooooood!

We popped in there last week for a qick peek and the cabinet guy was busy doing his thing. The kitchen is looking awsome...wanna guess what's my favourite part?...*hic hic*

...and part of the main en-suite...please check out the saweet walk-in-closet (Carrie Bradshaw, take a hike, sistah!)

On the family front, we've been enjoying our time with my Dad.The time has flown, and he'll be leaving next Tuesday...lots of great memories, and even more pics that I'll share later on...

For now I gotta say Ciao baby...and have a great week!

Mixing it up...

..."Upsy Daisy" style...

This month, one of our Design Team challenges at "Upsy Daisy Designs" was to mix up as many lines as we wanted to...

This is what I came up with when I mixed "Vogue" with some "Blossom", added a dash of "See ya Later Alligator" and topped it off with a few splashes of "A New Day"...

These days we're all soaking up some family time with my Dad.
It's great having him here...

Happy weekend ya'll :)

Awsome-ness!

It's been a "Ben & Jerry" kinda week...

First Rea got sick...very sick...lots of awful stomach pains.
And she's not a complainer at all.
So it was so scary when she couldn't sit, stand or even lie down without howling in pain.
After many hours of trying out different pain killers at home, she ended up in the emergency room for some IV pain killers...

That helped a lot, and the next day she had an ultrasound to see what the culprit was.
Nothing turned up and her bloodwork was fine, and she's been good ever since.
Fingers crossed that whatever it was stays away...FOR GOOD!

Then, this happened:

I can't say too much there 'cause it's all car-ish and techie geek stuff...but it ain't right!
Tha's all...

But the weather was good, and the littlest men in my life took me to the park that afternoon...and the week that started out not-so-great ended up smiley and happy :)

Hope your weekend is going swell...

"Whoah Baby!!"

These photos just crack me up...
I remember this day so clearly...
But I can't remember the year...go figure!

I used Noel Migon's "Playdate" kit once more :)

Have a wonderful Monday :):):)
