There's always room for a story …
I can’t believe it’s already been three years since this photo was taken. In 2013, my friend and I set up a hot cocoa booth at Vandermeer Nursery in Ajax to do some nice holiday mini sessions.
During the day, my parents stopped by to say hi! Oh, what fun! Should I do it again this year?
Only few people in this world can say they’re as blessed as me. I was born into a loving household, hardworking parents, who are genuine and kind. So, as I sit here and sort through photos, I decided to share a #ThrowbackThursday – an old photo of me and my mom.
I can’t tell you what year this was taken, but it was surely over 20 years ago. And what I’ve learned since then: mother-daughter bonds, big sunglasses and denim never go out of style.
Pickering’s Frenchman’s Bay: September 21, 2011. Beautiful, calm and the sun was just setting. It’s been five years since I’ve taken these photos, but it seems like just yesterday.
One of my best friends, Lisa, was getting ready to pack her bags, and move to the hustle and bustle of London, England. Fast-forward to present day: she married the love of her life – a fellow from Luton, and she is getting ready to begin a new chapter; a chapter which includes a bit more Canada.
This post is for you, Lisa. I can’t wait to see you again, and maybe this summer, we can recreate such a special night.
Happy Father’s Day to my dad, and all the great fathers out there!
Like I did for Mother’s Day, I decided to post a throwback photo for this very SPECIAL occasion! To be honest, I am not sure when this photo was taken. But I think my Dad and I make a pretty great pair! Unfortunately, I never succeeded in piano (I think I can still play “Jingle Bells”), but my Dad is sure good at it.
“I know you were on my side even when I was wrong. And I love you for giving me your eyes. For staying back and watching me shine. And I didn’t know if you knew, so I’m taking this chance to say that I had the best day with you today.” – Best Day, Taylor Swift.
Happy Mother’s Day, everyone!
For this special occasion, I dug up an old image from May 1, 1988. Just over 26 years ago – if you can believe that! Also, check out my spiffy outfit and mom’s 80’s hairstyle. I personally think photo has “cool” written all over it.
“You showed me when I was young just how to grow. You showed me everything that I should know. You showed me just how to walk without your hands, cause mom you always were the perfect fan.” – Perfect Fan, Backstreet Boys
