farm friends

Some more pics from our adventure at the PNE... these are of all the farm friends we encountered that day. Kissing horses (or maybe they are gossiping?) and snotty giant cows (someone get this guy a giant tissue!)... they are all pretty cute, nasal secretions and all.

a little bit of country in the city

This past weekend, we went to visit the PNE (Pacific National Exhibition), which is the big end of summer fair here in Vancouver. One of the highlights (besides the amusement rides... more on that tomorrow) was the farm country pavilion which showcased a diverse bunch of animals. My faves were the giant pair of oxen named Zorro and Zeldo. Seriously... in that first picture, I would have come up to his chin... it was that massive. Am also a fan of the mini horses too. If it weren't frowned upon, I would use one as an alternative mode of transportation. I wonder if they put the mini horse and giant oxen in the same pen, if both would be really confused or weirded out by each other.... hmmm. More pics coming tomorrow!

collage: one day you will grow up to be big and strong

The whole baby beluga news from Sunday (see yesterday's post) is really making the rounds on local tv here. So to keep the baby animals theme going, I thought this collage would be perfect for today. I think this little fella will one day grow up to be big and strong... clip clop clip clop.

collage: horsey sings the blues

It is Wednesday, hump day, today and the skies are grey and cloudy here. I am already longing for the weekend, since my "to do" pile seems to getting bigger not smaller... ack!... will have to make a big cup of coffee today. Thought this collage was a good match and pretty cute for the midweek... I promise I will post a more cheery one come closer to weekend! 

On a side note, wanted to thank Handbag Cave and Mystic Wynd for featuring some Cabin + Cub craft items this week! Thanks!!
