My mum sent me some really nice photos from the summer this weekend, so in honour of Throwback Thursday, here are some oldies. I've been crazy busy lately, but will hopefully have time to post more soon.

For Hanukah, I made my godmother a cutting board from a leftover piece of countertop which my Dad had cut down for them. With a lot of help from Brad, I cut it down to a good size, smoothed down and rounded out the edges, and sanded the whole thing. Power tools are very exciting.

My mum went to a complete hippie-fest this summer, where she met a woman who did custom hula hoops, and, to our entire family's confusion, got one (because who doesn't need a personalized hula hoop?). Not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty awesome at it. Actually, everyone on #teamjones is pretty awesome at it, except for one (not naming any names).

EDIT: just went back and found my mum's post about it. Apparently she just "knew" there was someone in Airdrie that made hoops.

No, I'm not removing a security tag from a pair of shoes, why would you even ask that (it had gotten left on by mistake and I hadn't been able to get back to the store I bought them from). It was a bit of a sketchy process involving a knife and fire, but I got it off eventually!
