Gnome Sweet Gnome: For Valentines Day: A Quick Version of Falling in Love
http://oliviacarter.blogspot.com/2010/02/for-valentines-day-love-story.html
Friday, February 12, 2010. For Valentines Day: A Quick Version of Falling in Love. From a young age, I'd sworn off getting married. No one would gain my trust enough for me to give up my heart. But when I met Scott I instantly liked him. He had a 1969 VW Bug. Lived off a CostCo pack of Sour Skittles. And he had a confident infectious smile. I found out I had an Art History class with him. A class that he wasn't doing very well in. I called him to remind him to study for our test next week. Ahh, how fun!

http://mcsmash.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-cotswold-way.html
A Dapple A Day. Sunday, August 31, 2014. We hiked a small portion of the Cotswold Way. Georgie pre-wheezy cough, chillin on the play equiptment. Breath taking views from our hike. Silly panoramas are becoming a Smith Family tradition. I hope we can keep journaling our experiences here in the UK. Seeing how my last post was a year ago I'm not holding my breath, but I have high hopes :). Wait a second - when did you guys move to UK? Im excited for you. :). Hope you guys feel better soon!

A Dapple A Day: Sudeley Castle through the eyes of Sophie (with a hint of Leah awesomeness)
http://mcsmash.blogspot.com/2014/09/sudeley-castle-through-eyes-of-sophie.html
A Dapple A Day. Thursday, September 04, 2014. Sudeley Castle through the eyes of Sophie (with a hint of Leah awesomeness). Photos by Sophia and Leah. We get there and the castle was amazing! The castle its self is surrounded by a grove of trees, making it look mysterious as it peeks out behind the grove making it secret. The medieval castle that still stands has the prettiest grounds I've ever seen. Anyways Leah and I were given the phone to take pictures and here's what happened. And FINALLY the finish ...

A Dapple A Day: Winter stuffs and Maple Syrup Adventures
http://mcsmash.blogspot.com/2013/04/winter-stuffs-and-maple-syrup-adventures.html
A Dapple A Day. Friday, April 12, 2013. Winter stuffs and Maple Syrup Adventures. So this winter has been a major doozy. It seemed that winter started the moment my morning sickness went full throttle and now that I am feeling more like myself wouldn't you know winter is still hanging around the Great North. Doesn't Canada know I'm feeling better! Which means bring on the green grass, wild flowers, and birds singing. Not ice pellets, frigid wind and the sound of scraper trucks driving past my house!

A Dapple A Day: Hairdresser On Fire! (100 points if you know the reference for that!)
http://mcsmash.blogspot.com/2014/09/hairdresser-on-fire-100-points-if-you.html
A Dapple A Day. Saturday, September 13, 2014. 100 points if you know the reference for that! So life in England has had it's fair shares of ups and downs. I'm not going to lie, when you are in a two bedroom (albeit gorgeous) temporary housing with 5 kids, AND there is no immediate space for your children to run around and be loud, the downs can really get to you. But I guess as is the case with most situations the good outweighs the bad. My plan of attack was to:. After hugging her and reassuring her tha...

A Dapple A Day. Wednesday, August 14, 2013. How to have a baby Canadian style. So I decided to throw caution to the wind and have the baby all hippy-dippy at home. Here are my fabulous midwives who were so wonderful during all the action. The birth went smoothly and I found being at home to be so comfortable and relaxing. And here is the book my sister Adriane gave me to read when I was in Arizona over the summer. Derek took a lot of revolting post birth photos of baby and I. This one is semi-decent.

Gnome Sweet Gnome: Summer Solstice Party
http://oliviacarter.blogspot.com/2012/06/summer-solstice-party.html
Friday, June 22, 2012. My writer group girls and I were sitting at writing group last week, talking out some hard life stuff and we realized that the next writing group fell onto the Summer Solstice. Since we were all in need of some rejuvenation we thought we'd throw ourselves a little party. I know, a party for yourselves? Let me just say, it was spectacular, silly, life affirming, relaxing, and I'm a happier person because of it. A fabulous person and friend of many writers (& she has. As a gift for t...
