Don't miss BirthFest this Saturday!

You don't want to miss BirthFest! I missed it last year for the first time, but will be stopping by for sure on Saturday. Its super fun, FREE (and not cold and cheesy like many tradeshows are). Meet local Midwives and Doulas and browse loads of family focused vendors, services and local non profits. (Including The Shanti uganda Society!!) Feel a real sense of community.

When I go, I tend to walk two steps and run into someone, another two steps, and so on haha.. its super fun!

I highly recommend going if you are expecting, know anyone who is expecting, have recently had a baby and are looking for resources, or just plain for the heck of it! There is something for everyone. And again, it's FREE and always fun to hang out on the Drive.

Maybe I'll see ya there? I sure hope so.

What: Birth Fest: Celebrating Bellies, Birth & Babies
When: Saturday, February 26, 2011, 11am – 4pm
Where: Britannia Community Centre, Gym D, 1661 Napier St, Vancouver, BC

hurtin' for cash now that christmas is over?

Don't forget your local library. There are so many to choose from and the library has so much more than books. And it belongs to you and me! Sheer peace and enjoyment I always find at the library.

I spend a chunk out of each day studying, and personally I find there is no better place to do it than the library.

Came across this quote this morning and love it so thought I'd share.

"Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries"-Anne Herbert

Namaste.

The library is one of my favourite haunts.

I love them. Big ones, little ones, dingy ones, brand new ones. Just give me a library and I'm happy.

I spend oodles of time at them and feel real comfort.

I also like the borrowing aspect. You can have anything you like. For free! I don't watch much in the way of movies, but did you know that the library even has new releases? For free?

They also have all sorts of children's programs/baby and me programs etc.

Again...

*the word is free.

The convenience, the tranquility and the atmosphere are only 3 huge reasons to revisit your local library. I have been a lover of libraries for a very long time and don't see that ever changing.♥

THIS Sunday! Come one come all!

The Roundhouse Picnic in the Park has been rescheduled! Yippie!!

Its THIS Sunday August 15.

Loads of fun stuff down at David Lam Park by the water in Yaletown (Davie St @ Pacific Blvd).

Soccer, food, live music, face painting and FREE YOGA with me! (you need not bring anything. mats provided)!

It was loads of fun last year and promises to be the same again this year! And don't forget that the movie Back to the Future begins at dusk so grab a blanket, a flashlight, some snacks and enjoy!

Yoga with me is at 1230 & again at 200pm. If you have been wanting to try out yoga for the first time come on down... If you just feel like geting some stretches in outside by the water come on down. Or if you want to stop by and say hello or introduce yourself that would be great too because I am all about meeting new people.

Come down and have fun and enjoy a fun day at the park :)
