Oh deer!!

I just had to share this photo with you. Hubby, puppy and I went on a mini 3 day vacation to the Sunshine Coast in BC. On our way back to the ferry this adorable deer family crossed in front of our car. I grabbed the camera as fast I could and got a great photo of them. How cute eh??

Some PCS news:
I'm in the process of designing new stamps for a late September release. Lily and Billy want to have a costume party so how can I deny them LOL! If you have suggestions for costumes that you would like to see the kiddos wearing please post them in the comments section of this post.

Thanks for your help!

Ut oh. Now that I showed a photo I feel the urgent need to show more. I can't help myself. Okay just a few more. These are from moments when we were truly in awe of what we saw.

How's this for a bunch of starfish?? We saw a lot of starfish on our trip but then came across this one huddle. The tide was out so we were able to climb down on the rocks and get this amazing photo.

No I didn't spill a bowl of jello :) This is a large jellyfish that was washed onto shore by the tide. There were a lot of them all over the beach. Each day the tide brings them to shore and then many of them get swept back out when the tide goes out but not this guy :(

Okay, one more photo. This is my furbaby Olive. This was her first time in a canoe, she was so brave. She doesn't like the water so at first she was a little scared but she did enjoy looking at the starfish, jellyfish and crabs that we could see all over the ocean floor and on the side of the rocks. Doesn't she look cute in her life jacket :)

We had a lovely trip and if you are ever in BC I would definately recommend visiting the Sunshine Coast.

Have a great day!
