Saturday Day 2 Retreat - Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday! Make sure you stop and visit our Hostess Beverly from How Sweet the Sound and all the other Pink Saturday posts. 

Day 2 - Saturday of My Retro Beach Beauties Art Retreat in Canada was fun. We all went to St. Jacobs Antique Market. There were so many treasures that I wish I could have taken home but had to limit to something small.




                                Me under that mask! I always wanted to be a blond whahahaha


                                                  Tammy and Sandy and Mini Sandy dolly


                                                      Lu Lu on the other side of the tracks!


                                                 Then we went to the Farmers Market









I bought some Apple Fritters and we stopped at Tim Horton for some coffee and went back to Sandy's for a little break.

                    (Sandy - Me - Natalea - Vivian - Lu Lu and Tammy took the picture)

We washed up and got dressed for a little sight-seeing and dinner in Downtown Toronto.








Dinner at Blu after walking around Downtown Yorkville Toronto with all the pretty shops.

The day was a beautiful  Day full of new wonderful friends and giggles. In the evening Vivian received a very sad phone call telling her that her sweet new grandson Jacob would not  make it and  that soon he would go to Heaven with the other sweet Angels. I am so glad I had the chance of spending time with Vivian although her heart was with Jacob. Her daughter came all the way from Buffalo to get Vivian in Toronto so she could be with the family and say goodbye. Please keep Jacob, Vivian and the family in your prayers. Thank you.


Come Back for Sunday and Gifts!!!

    Looks like everyone had lots of fun. My thoughts and prayers have and are still with Vivian and family. Hope she comes back to her blog and us soon. She needs some time for herself. Glad she got to spend time with her friends for a couple of days.
