update of nothing.

(~)

I can't believe May is actually over (as of tomorrow.) 

It was a fabulous month, filled with lots of fun adventures (Jays game, birthday dinners, cottage weekend, sporting life 10km, celebrating wonderful mothers and eating lots of good food). 

June becomes the month of birthdays in my family - my mom, brother, niece, (soon-to-be) sister in law and my dad. June is also going to bring some weekends at home and another cottage weekend (we just decided!)...oh and the longest day of the year. 

Currently I am loving: 

~ the many hours of daylight we are getting (!)

~ seeing my niece tonight and spending the day with her (and my sister in law) tomorrow (!)

~ my morning tea

~ pampering this weekend (finally getting my hair cut and indulging in a massage)

~ anything BBQ'd

~ upcoming plans

~ the flowers in the garden

~ open toed shoes

I hope you have a nice weekend.

5*things - random edition

1. May is still my favourite month, and with all the exciting adventures (see here and here) it lived up to every expectation and the weather blew EVERYTHING out of the water. It was unbelievable gorgeous here this month, and I am so happy to have thoroughly enjoyed all the outside time, and hope it continues through the summer!

2. I got cirque du soleil tickets (this show) for my birthday (I LOVE these shows); as well as tickets to see my favourite punk band face to face. Isn't it fabulous when birthday's keep giving in events like these, will be nice to have both of those nights out with awesome people. 

3.  BBQ is the best. 

4. We had dinner last night with my brother at The Harbord Room - it was delicious, the atmosphere was very chill ~ we had a great time. I would definitely recommend checking this place out. 

5. I am going to do a (new) year long fabulous project. When I was 29 - I decided to do a 365 day fabulous project, where I found something fabulous in/about every day. It was wonderful and I wish I had this blog at the time, but I logged it on livejournal and deleted my account (silly me!). So this year I am going to do a 52 FAB - and post 1 thing each week that (to me) is fabulous. I am starting this week - so look for that coming soon!

recently.

This past week has been busy and fabulous. 

Matt and I celebrated our 2 wonderful mothers (and thought of countless others who make this world go round). 

We ran the Sporting Life 10km race for kids with cancer (my first, his second race ever). It was the largest race in Toronto with 25,000 participants signed up! 

We celebrated his birthday and went to a Jays game.

(so handsome!)

And my birthday was celebrated with delicious fajitas and a pending trip to the cottage (we are leaving in T minus 4 hours - eeek!). 

This weekend will be filled with work, visiting and hopefully lots of outdoor time, a great Canadian long weekend...is it time yet?!

Happy long weekend for matty, rufus and myself!
