Summertime is canoe time! And a fun trade with friends!

Ahhh summertime. We've had a lot of rain this summer here in central Ohio, but now that the weather seems to be more summer-like I can't think of anything more relaxing and serene than floating down a river or lake in a canoe.
Did you know that quality canoes often have caned seats? Unlike solid seats it keeps the boat light weight and cushions the bottom while paddling along.
Last summer my friends bought a canoe to restore. It happened to have caned seats in pretty bad shape. So they sent them on over for me to re-seat.

A little bit of elbow grease  and new seats and this summer they are enjoying some leisure time outdoors on this 3 seater.

In exchange for the new caning for the canoe, I asked if they would design and print an announcement for our baby that was born this past January. I loved the birth announcements they had designed and printed for their children and was so excited for them to do Mina's.

They designed and then hand printed them at Aesthetic Apparatus in Minneapolis, MN. I love them! The are so... Mina!!! And the bright colors were a sight for sore eyes in the middle of a gray Ohio winter.
