Nothing is safe...

Cassia rearranging the cupboard again. Thanks Cass!

In the garden

 Chive flower

 Volunteer violet

Toothy grin. Teeth not popular with breast-feeding mom.

Galiano

We went to a wedding on Galiano Island for a weekend. We took zero (yes zero) pictures of the wedding itself.  I blame it on the fact that we were too busy playing music and being parents. And laziness is probably to blame too. This photo is by our friend Blair. I totally stole it off his Facebook page. Thanks Blair!

 

Hiked up Mount Galiano. Fun for the whole family.

 Gulf Islands.

Kootenay Joe Farm

Went for a visit to Kootenay Joe Farm, home of Stellar Seeds. A lovely time deep in the Kootenays.

Fresh bread

Lunch time sausages.

Tools by James.
(As in James took the photo. He didn't make the tools.)

Lettuce. If you buy Stellar Seeds, these may be the your 2013 salad's parents.

Bracken fern.
I love how the little side fiddleheads (or croziers if you want a new nerdy word) look like curled up cat paws. So cute.

Greenhouse babies.

Squash

The beach.

Looking down Kootenay Lake.

Gar creek which provides the farm with water had a big avalanche this year and there is still heaps of debris and snow in the creek bed. Should be interesting to watch melt out. (Note: this is the creek that ended up being the site of the massive and devastating landslide in Johnsons Landing in July of this year.)

Driveway which was blocked by the avalanche.

Rain in the garden

My favourite orange tulips.

 

That big smile again

 Hamming it up for the camera.

Huckleberries - a hit.
