Julia & Julia

Julia & Julia & Dana

As I actually sit and watch Julia & Julia for the second time,
I feel the need to write.

This story amazes me.

The wise Julia.
(Wise meaning older)
She is an amazing woman,
So down to earth and so talented.
She is so sure of herself,
So confident that she can do anything.
Julia is calm, beautiful and she wears pearls...
Pearls in the Kitchen!
"Bon A petite"
This was how Julia said hello, and good bye.

The young Julie.
She is at first a lady who has lost her way.
She is also down to earth and talented,
Julia is just unable to finish anything she starts.
Julia is emotional and funny.
She decides to cook her way through Julia Child's cookbook and Blog about it along the way.
It is a 365 Day, 514 Recipe adventure.
So it begins.

Dana
A mom who has lost her sense of who she is?
Other than "Mommy"
Down to earth and a Dreamer.
Talented with her hands, but no time to use with her talents.
Dana is physically and emotionally drained.
She decided to start a Blog of her thoughts.
Her Blog is a form of therapy for her.
Dana's Blog will end when she feels it's time.
There is no added adventure needed...
Her life is already enough of an adventure.

I felt excited and very touched by this movie.
Young Julia is kinda like me just, we are just on very different paths of life.
We both have lost our way and strive for more.
We both decided to start a Blog...for almost the same reasons.
A path to follow, something that is ours and something to actually finish.

I think in a way wise Julia is someone I will strive harder to be.

I think I may try one day to cook my way through Julia Child's cookbook.
Not for the need...
Just to learn to cook and eat some good food.
But not until I'm skinny...skinny...skinny!LOL
It will be an adventure when my life calms down, that I can take on.
I am sure that later in life I will look back at this time and think....
Now what?

Just watch the movie!

Oh my house...

the pics to prove it.

So over the last seven weeks of sickness there have been very little pics of the kids.
but here they are...
My boys being ingnored...my house is a disaster!


Nick had to keep up with the kitchen and Laundry...Poor Guy!

And help at night with all the boys.

My one saving grace and a huge HIT was Nintendo DS...
Now I just have to figure out how to curb the boys enthusiasm to play it everyday, all day!

I just want to say I have one of the best hubbys alive...thanks Babe!
I feel like I have been that Mom that has just let go of everything.

With the weather changing I am praying for Health!

Thank you for all your prayers and offers of Soups and crackers!
Love you all!

Time has ticked away from me.

it's been a while.

I have had every sickness under the sun, the moon and the stars...
So have my Kids.
I am ready for us to be healthy.
I have been unable to do anything that is a Mom's J.O.B.
It's just that I have been so tired.

So stay tuned...I have many blogs to finish.
I AM BACK...OH YES I AM BACK!

Prayer's Please.

I have come down with another virus.
Of the Gastro kind.
Please pray that our Family can get well.
Please Pray that one of the Children get this.
Prayer is really needed.
I wish to be healthy.

Thank you from the Bottom of my Heart!

Meow


Meow.Meow.Meow.

So we went to the Bird Sanctuary in Ladner, with our Paster's Family.
And the Boys were so in LOVE!

It was a great Sunday. (Two Sundays ago)
We started with Church, followed by a drive that involved Walky talky's and lots of Jokes.
We arrived and had a picnic lunch, Roasted chicken!
Funny since we were surrounded by Birds.


I am pretty sure they were staring us down!
While we were all eating Mason was running around after the Birds screaming...
MEOW...MEOW



I tried to explain to him that they were not Cats...he didn't care.
We got to feed the Birds, they came right up to us and ate out of our hands!
We walked for awhile and just had great moments with God's Creation.

There are 7 from the Miles Family & 5 Sears family...


Daddy & Mason

Carter's big eyes & tiny toes!

A beautiful Place.

It was a Sunday I won't forget.
I hope that there are many more Sundays like this to come.
Sunday is a time for Worship, GOD & Family.
