Weekend Wrap-up: Happy Victoria Day!

Happy Victoria Day!
This weekend was FANTASTIC!  Sure it rained all Sunday and Monday so Phil and I mostly stayed around the house but I think it was just what we needed (or at least what I needed).  I didn't post anything from last weekend so here are many random pictures from the last two weeks:

Brunch Fixin's
  My dear friend G came for a visit and I was so pleased to see him.  It had been approximately four years since we saw each other last and it didn't feel like any time had passed.  I felt pretty bummed after he left but had both my parents and Phil's parents over for dinner to celebrate a late Mother's Day so no time to be sad!  The dinner went really well - thanks to Phil and all his hard work!
 Even after two visits and a phone convo with K I still managed to finish my book AND return it to the library ON TIME!  This seriously is a major problem with me but NOT ANYMORE! Times they are a changin' . . .and the fees keep going up so . . .
Saw Mr. Snail on our way home from a rainy weekend walk.
My Vision Board.  I Need Help.  Ha-ha.
 Phil and I watched 'Overboard' with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell this weekend (my first time) and LOVED IT!  So so funny!  We popped our own popcorn - kind of the only way I like it.  No chemical sludge please.  Yick. . .
 No weekend would be complete without PANCAKES!  The strawberries were an added bonus.
 I guess I caught the baking bug this weekend and finally baked some macaroons as well. . . there is way too much food in our house right now. . . so not complaining!!
I also did a bit of watercolour practice - can you tell who it is?  I sure hope so. . .
Have a great (short) work week!!
