OVO - Part Two

.

Ok, so now it is the next day and i'm dragging my feet. We got home after the show at around 11:30 - and I didn't fall asleep until 2:30am.

At least I have Starbucks!! Thank God for my "Grande Cinnamon Dolce".....mmmmm........

So, the second half of the show was great as well. The had a whole segement with a spider and her web. I can honestly saw I never thought the human body could twist like that. She put the best contortionist to shame.

They also did a little love scene between the blue bug and the lady bug. SO CUTE!

They also used trampolines with the grasshoppers. WOW. It was pretty awesome.

The end was a huge banquet where all the bugs came out. Fantastic.

As a side note - the music was done by a live band. The singer was spectacular.

Ok. Well that's all for now!!

If you get a chance to go - GO - you will enjoy it!!

OVO - Part One

.

All I can say is WOW!!! The show so far has been spectacular! It's the intermission now and I have seen all kinds of bugs.

The best so far has been the cute lady bug. She is just so cute.

I have seen two dueling bugs - praying mantis - spiders - bugs flipping corn and kiwis. These dancers-acrobats are completely astounding!!

There was one dancer all by himself and he danced so beautifully. He could even hold himself up by one hand - and get this - spin around. Spectacular!!!

When the grasshoppers came out they went around visiting everyone.well wouldn't you know it. It stopped in between my parents. Scared my mom half to death - while I was peeing myself laughing - IT WAS GREAT!!!!

Well that's all till after the show!!

Muah to all those "OVO" fans out there!!!

As a challenge - do you know what OVO means?
I do.... But I'm not telling!
Well maybe...but not until later.

SNOW in Toronto?!?!?!?!?!

.

Ok. So while I was at work at my desk, I get an email from my friend.

"it's snowing. woo hoo"

I turned around, and wouldn't you know it....the stupid white stuff is falling.

I am astounded, however, it only lasts a few minutes. It definately was a sure sign that that time is coming however much we don't want it too!!

I am very excited today, as my parents, my friend Julie, and I are going to go see OVO by Cirque du Soleil. I have been told that it is amazing. I will give you all the details tomorrow.

Halloween Weekend

.

Didn’t get much scrapbooking done this weekend.

Spent the weekend hanging out with Dori. We went to the mall, Walmart, and the movies on Sunday. We saw Amelia. It was a great story and even better movie. Hilary Swank played an amazing Amelia Earhart. She was very inspiring.

On Halloween we vegged out at my place and watched True Blood, Saving Grace and a bit of The Witches of Eastwick. It was so much fun. We even did a little fashion show. Here's our best impression of Charlie's Angels!!!



I loved playing around with the wigs and the mask. Even my dog got into the fun with his devil costume. Isn't he cute, not really a scary devil.



We bought face masks from Lush and did those while we watched the shows on television, although we did wait until all the trick or treaters had come and gone.

We exfoliated first using Ocean Salts. I can't believe the salt that was in it...although by the name you would think I wouldn't be surprised. However, when I was washing my fash I got a mouth full of the salt. YUCK!!! The mask I used was Brazened Honey. Dori got Love Lettuce. Here is what my mask said: " Refreshing Detoxifiying mask to brighten tired skin and scrub away dull old cells. Full of honey, lime and ground almonds - perfect for when you've been neglecting your poor face." It felt great on my skin.

I haven't done a mask in such a long time, that it was really nice to do it. It wasn't very expensive either.

Waterloo

.

Hi Ho! Hi Ho! It's off to Waterloo we go!!

Dori and I went out to visit my sister in Waterloo today. We had an absolute blast.

On the way to Waterloo Dori and I attempted to make a video. Well it really didn't work out too well. The camera slid around, fell down, chopped off heads and body parts. It was a funny experience.

We got to Waterloo around noon and went to pick my sister up. I had brought her our halloween costumes as per her instructions. Although at the time I didn't know she was looking for our Hersey's Kiss costume.




While Kae was looking in my trunk one of her friends had come up to see what we were doing. He managed to find our chicken costume and proceeded to try it on. He looked so funny.

Here is this big guy trying to get into a tiny costume. I almost peed myself watching.

After our little show, we then went to St.Jacob's as we always do in Waterloo. We visited the Bakery, the Silo, Scrapping Turtle, as well as Gecko Beads.

My sister and Dori totally hit it off - it was great.



We toured around Walmart for a bit, then we went to see Law Abiding Citizen.

The movie was spectacular!!! Love Gerard Butler.
