james and his bro's acoustic show

again, while out in kelowna in january, i got to listen to kristal's boyfriend, james, and his bro, along with a few others do an acoustic show..

and my sis and james even sang one together.. :)

some of the snaps i took..





some of the fine dining we had in kelowna - jan 2008

my sister and i ate out alot..ok, almost at least 1x a day :)
and why not?? we had the cash (thanks mom!) and i hate cooking and it's just the two of us!


we had breakfast one morning at the bohemian cafe, downtown kelowna..that, my friends, is where i fell in love with BC BENNIES. :)



















we then went home and the view from the "lookout" was beautiful..





















we had dinner one night at yamas, greek restaurant...mmmmmmmm greek! :)
























then of course sushi's at momo's...where i fell in love with their philadelphia roll..
mmmmmmmmmmmmm..... :)


































altho when we were at momo's, these two girls (who i snuck a photo of) were so obnoxiously loud, and were talking about how they went out and got drunk and this guy and that guy..honestly, NOT dinner talk. i was so repulsed. so i decided i'd shoot a pic and blog them, and how rude it is when people talk crap at dinner time when most people are wanting a nice dinner together..be different if we were in a fast food joint..but momo's is far from that. gah! :)


lady of the lake

0 comments
in january, i stayed for 5 days with my sister in kelowna while the 'rents were away in las vegas..

we had such a great week together!

she was part of something called lady of the lake..kinda like miss kelowna.
i went with them as they tried on clothes at cleo's and shoes at payless shoes..it was fun!

unfortunately my sister had to pull out cuz of her involvement in "the sound of music" at kelowna actor's studio..

nonetheless, it was a great experience for her!

now i lay me down to sleep

0 comments
a couple of years ago i discovered this remarkable association through a friend who's photographer in toronto was a member of.

i took at a look at their site and was captured by their mandate.
at the time we lived in a small town where there were no affiliates of NILMDTS, so it wasn't until we moved to the city that i contacted the vancouver rep here and became a member.

i am attending some training at the end of this march and the end of april, and i'm really excited to see where this goes.

it resonates within my heart, being a missionary in the philippines for 6 years and being a lay midwife.

check out their website for more details of who they are..

now i lay me down to sleep

my heart,
tracey

below is a video that the Today Show did last week..it's represents NILMDTS so well..enjoy..

we spent the late afternoon and evening with our dear friends david & roberta.
they just moved into their new place together last month; they also got married last month in HAWAII!!

we had such a lovely time with them and the view from their place looking into english bay was breathtaking...i wish i had my tripod, but took a "snap" of the amazing night view!!

love you, friends!
