The June 28th Book launch for my daughter's debut children's book
Dreaming of Dresses was everything Kate and I could have imagined and hoped for and so much more!
We are so grateful for the love, hugs, support, kind words, flowers and notes from family and friends .
It was a very emotional afternoon.
Being surrounded by those we love made the day more than just to celebrate Kate's book.
It was the meaning behind the book! That we are all connected and so much stronger together.
Creating these "photo frames" is becoming a bit of a tradition for me now.
I absolutely love painting them!
Here we are with the publisher of Dreaming of Dresses Marcia Allyn who owns Twin Horseshoes Publishing.
There were lots of fun moments leading up to the book launch including doing a live IG where Kate spoke about writing Dreaming of Dresses and I spoke on illustrating it!
This has all certainly taken me out of my "comfort zone" as public speaking has always been something I've shied away from! Getting braver the closer I get to 70 :-)
Yesterday my husband & I spent the day in NOTL where we had tickets to see the play
"Wait Until Dark". This is one of my favourite Audrey Hepburn movies and when we saw it was playing at the Shaw we purchased tickets immediately.
It didn't disappoint ... absolutely fantastic!
When we arrived home I had a package waiting for me.
Marcia had very kindly sent me this fabulous water bottle!

Many thanks to all who made the Dreaming of Dresses Book Launch a day we will always remember!
