Ok, how is it even possible that it’s June 20th today??? ALREADY??? Crazy!!

Brent and I (and the dogs of course) went to Victoria last weekend for a very quick - but fun - trip. I know I’ve only been living away from the island for a year and a half now, but it seems so different to me now when we go back. So odd cause I spent my ENTIRE life there until last year, and even now, we are only a ferry ride away. And it’s true, the lifestyle there is much more laid back then it is here in Vancouver. People always used to say that (when I used to live over there) and I scoffed at the thought thinking it was all the same. But it really IS more laid back!!! I see it now - LOL!!

It was Angus’s 4th birthday on June 16th - he was thrilled he got to spend it at my parents house (”in the country”) running and playing with his best friend Mitzy. Angus absolutely loves being at my parents house, he would gladly stay there full time I think. Zoey on the other hand is very attached to us (especially me lately), and where I know she loves to visit there, she worries the entire time that we are going to go home without her. Angus worries that when we leave we are going to drag him along with us. What a pair.

A couple of the daily visitors to my parents yard. My mum even feeds them numerous times a day. She buys them special food and everything, and she has named them all. There are about 8 different deer I think that visit each day. (While we were there one of the neighbors called to ask my mum if she has seen one of the large bucks, as she hadn’t seen him in her yard for a few days. Brent called this “the neighborhood deer watch” lol!) Oh, and yes we were that close to them. My mum is able to stand only a couple feet away from them now, they are really beginning to trust her.

Here are some pics of me

So on Saturday Brent was taking photos for our friend Alicia who is a hairstylist and make up artist. She had a few “models” at her house and she was doing their hair and make up so Brent could take photos of them for her portfolio. I got to be one of her models! Hehe, yep me… She did an awesome job on everyone’s hairdo’s and make up.
