Today is the 100th day of school for Anneka and Aila.
So each class does something special...usually involving bringing "100 of something" (usually cheerios for us)
Another thing Aila's class was asked to do was "Dress like you're 100". Translation? They have to dress like they are 'old'.
Well...lets see. Who are the 'oldest' women in our family? Why, Gramma and Oma of course! Shall we dress like them?
Well....funnily, that won't work for us since one of them loves wearing pink/red, anything that sparkles or glitters, and has more than a couple mickey mouse or carebear t-shirts. The other wears skinny jeans, form fitting tops, is smothered in accessories....and likes a nice animal print for fun. Both wear full makeup, and always have their hair done nicely.
So....Aila went dressed head to toe in pink, with a shirt that has sparkles on it. When asked, she intends to reply "I'm dressed like Gramma".

Hi there. I'm Yvonne, and I'm a wife, Mom of 2 and business chick. Welcome!I started this blog 17 years ago, back when most people said "What's a Blog?" (and before Facebook!) Well, I'm still here maintaining this blog when I can, simply to continue archiving all the memories that I have invested here. :)
We moved to Ottawa in August of 2007, but I've spent the previous years of my life in a city called Winnipeg (Ever heard of it?) I've been a worship leader for over 33 years, and I often say that "I don't really like music...I just love worship"
If you like, you click on the CD in the right column of this blog, and hear clips of my album "Only One Love".
And work? I have a small graphic design company (www.pearcreative.ca) specializing in Book Cover Design and marketing materials. I love love LOVE my job!
I share my adventures with my incredible husband of 25 years (Jason) and our two gorgeous daughters aged 16 and 19.

Ahhh...I am so honored . But...they do have a Great Grandmother who will soon be 102 years old, Nanna Parks. Then again how does one dress like Nanna ? Jammies ??? Nope...maybe a velour outfit and a sweater and a book in her lap.
Are there pictures to look forward to ? Love and hugs to all. Gramma.
Too funny!
