Now I think you're just playing with us ...

Do the rest of you in Vancouver (and surrounding parts) think that Mother Nature is totally playing with us with this relentless cold weather we're having?!

I'm pretty sure it's been the past two months now that I've been sitting in anticipation for the spring warmth to fill my arms like a warm hug, and for the past two months my arms have been outstretched...and sore.

I'm not going to get down because I DO believe (and have to believe) that spring is JUST around the corner. Come on everyone! Pull those bright colourful spring clothes out of your closets, dust them off and wear them...under a few layers for warmth. We can all secretly rebel against this long winter together :)

Alas, all is not lost! With the month of April brings our newest member to the featured couple list. Have a peek at what Renee & Mike (aka Ren and Big M) did for their wedding. They are one, of many, of our beautiful couples around North America...another couple that if we ever make it to Minnesota, you bet our bottom dollar that we'll be making a visit to see them!

The other super fantastic news is that Brina Louise Schenk is planning a visit to Vancouver this month! YAY!! She's coming down so that we can hug and play crib again but not only that, she'll be coming to help me out with our Got Craft show happening the first weekend in May. Fun!

So, everyone, put away the winter clothes and let's get this spring party started!

Hope to see all of you running around with me for the annual spring (outdoor--gulp) volleyball league starting any day now!

Happy April!
