Wipe Covers

Today I made a wipe cover for my friend Jess to replace the one she misplaced.  These are fun to do and very simple.

My 1st DIY project



My mother-in-law bought us this dining room table set which I really liked except the fabric on the chairs.  I've been waiting to find the right fabric to redo someday and I finally found it!

Before

Step One:

 measure the fabric to fit the cushion

Step Two:

pull fabric up on from the front and the back and staple in place

Step Three:

gather the fabric in the corners so its tight and staple it in place

Step Four:

Secure the cushion back to the chair frame

After

This project was really easy and fun. 

A life changer!

Epic Perry

Would you like a sneak peak at our baby?!

  Are you wondering about the title of this blog?!

   Here is the explanation:

  In the very beginning of the pregnancy I was having dreams about people asking us if we had names picked out.  I got a little tired of that question and trying avoid it because we didn't want people to know.  So when people would ask I'd say ..."oh, the name will be "Epic!".  What people didn't know was that that was the babys name :)



Life in Canada since September 2010

Once again I can't believe I haven't updated since August!

Maybe one of my New years resolutions should be to become a better blogger.  Oh, I don't know maybe not.

Our summer was very full and exciting.  September things seem to slow down just a bit but not really a whole lot.

Aaron and I went out to Manitoba the 3rd week of September for his brother Tim's ordination service.  This was my first trip to the western part of Canada.  It was remarkably flat.  I remember looking out the window in the plane and seeing land and lots of it. 

Me, Aaron, Tim, Rachel, Hugh, Calvin and Sara

At the end of September I went to Canada's Wonderland with Danielle, Lynn and Cassy.  We had a great time and made some wonderful Memories.

One of the most exciting things for us in September was that we got 7 new windows  and a front door put into our house. 

4 new windows along the front, new Bay Window, and Front door.  In the back of the house we replaced to basement windows.  They also finished the trim on the outdoor portions of the Kitchen window and Bathroom.

 The old ones...

October was a wonderful month.  Aaron and I found out that we were going to be parents!  We are due in June.  I had a really rough 1st trimester, but I'm feeling like I have more energy now that the 2nd trimester is upon us.

For the rest of October we had Canadian Thanksgiving, Ethan had his 5th Birthday.  We also got to do a trunk for our Church's trunk or treat.  The alternative halloween event. 

In September Kate and I put on a baby shower for Stephanie.  She was one of the church interns.  On October 14th her and Rob had their 1st son Nicohlas Elijah. 

November, we were able to go down to NY to celebrate My Mom's birthday and American Thanksgiving.  We also went up to Ottawa one friday afternoon and went to The Science and Technology Museum.  It was fantastic!

December, what a great Month.  Not only is it Christmas time its also my birthday month.  Aaron did a fantastic job this year with my Birthday.

I woke up to this...

He made me breakfast, gave me a foot massage, and we got to get our Christmas tree.  He took me out to dinner that night after my piano lesson.   We went to C & C's Christmas tree farm where we got to cut it down ourselves.  This was our 1st REAL christmas tree as married couple and I loved it!



Christmas this year at my parents was different but a lot of fun.  We got to spend some real quality time with each other.  One morning we did an ugly sweater contest and went to Cracker Barrel and had our waitress be the judge.  Heidi won, but didn't actually win a prize.  We gave the waitress a gas card for the prize.  She was very happy.

We were able to spend a few days with Aaron's parents in Shawville before New years.  We rang in the new year with some friends at Church

The first week of January we spent in Jacksonville, Florida at a Wesleyan Conference.

It was nice to see family, I only wish it had been warmer.

Heidi and Luke came up for a visit last weekend and that was really nice.  We have a few trips planned in the next couple of months and I'll post photos once I get them. 

Here is a pregnancy photo of me.  I am 16.5 weeks here.

Well, that's all for now.  Have a great 2011 and I'll be back to post more at a later date.
