Another great weekend. Friday evening was spent with family, and we had bbq supper despite the snow falling. Snowy days make me want to drink tea, so it was the perfect excuse to use my Hidden Animal tea cup! It's my new favorite.
Saturday was really busy... I worked at the salon in the morning, and then drove to an out of town fundraiser that the salon was participating in. It was our first booth that we ever set up for the salon, and it was a good learning experience. I enjoyed the drive to and from, for quiet time alone to think, and to admire the fields of wind turbines. Saturday evening was live Supercross, and I enjoy watching that with Ryan.
Sunday we slept in, and then drove to the city to celebrate my Grandpa's 85th birthday! He's so awesome. The family enjoyed good food and took turns sharing memories we have about times with our Dad/Grandpa. Everyone there hadn't seen my kids in a long time, so it was really nice to visit. Simon was gifted a Spiderman action figure that used to belong to my cousin, and he was SO pumped. (cute!)
While we were in the city, I dropped into Danier again to pick up that pouch purse that I had my eye on! I was happy they still had it. :) Getting a new bag feels great! The previous one has since been filed under "G".. ;)

I wanted to take a sec to talk about Earth Month, and how I'm taking part. Our salon is an Aveda salon, and every year Aveda supports WaterCan, to "give water - give life" by creating access to clean water in suffering parts of Africa! They say that for every $25 raised, that's enough to provide clean water access for 1 person for LIFE! Pretty amazing. So I have been raising money (through raffles/prizes at the salon, and taking pledges online) and wanted to give you a chance to help this amazing organization. If you click here, you can see the Walk for Water site, scroll down and click Donate, and look up my name to pledge me for the Walk. :) We're walking 6km on April 27th. (6km is the average distance a person walks for clean water in some parts of Africa). This is my first Walk for Water, and I'm really looking forward to taking part. :) xo holly
