You Will LOVE the Matching Outfits from Littles by Jules and Ruff Stitched – Enter to Win

Cute Alert

As many of our readers know, we love to connect with others in our community.  Learning about local businesses is a great way to connect with others in the area.  A new connection for us is the owner of Littles by Jules and Ruff Stitched.  This local clothing designer makes clothes for kids and pets and now your little ones can match their furry friends with these great outfits. Upcoming photo opp occasions to think about are Valentine’s Day, Easter, Weddings and Family Reunions, but these clothes are great for playtime too.

Take a look at Littles by Jules and Ruff Stitched owner Julie Gebara along with her little one AJ and her dog Winston (aka @MightyMorkie on Instagram) modeling the outfits on Breakfast Television.

With awards season coming up, this might be perfect timing!

How amazing would the photos be of your child with their pet in matching outfits?

I received a notice about

Lego Robotics Camp we are running this summer for children age 9 to 14. It will be running during the week of August 5th - 9th and August 19th-23rd at Knox Church in Waterloo. Our camp differs from most camps in that we are putting most of our focus on the exciting world of lego robotics.

Full day camp for a week is $250 plus tax. Includes a free t-shirt. http://brickworksacademy.com/

Next week we will be adding in our compiled list for AUGUST 2013 If you have something to add make sure to send me a message https://www.facebook.com/lisamcdonald122
I'll need the name of the event, the address, time and cost as well as a link to the event's website. Thanks to everyone that contributes to our crowdsourcing page for Kitchener Waterloo and Area!
