Snow covered mountains

There are many reasons that I enjoy living in Vancouver, BC in Canada. It's one of the most beautiful places to live. Mild weather and a lot of west coast type of lifestyle like being able to go to the mountains and ski. One of our most favorite places to go is Whistler, BC. We've gotten celebrities and even royal family members who have visited our mountains. Whistler is world famous and also hosted a lot of Olympic events for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics which were held here this last year. I'll never forget what it was like being downtown in Vancouver for my first Sin City night while the Olympics were going on. There was so much spirit and pride that night in our city. I love living here! I love to travel and have gone to different places around the world but I always love to come home to Vancouver. We don't get as much snow as many other places in Canada. So it tends to be a pretty big deal when it does snow. You have to go out and enjoy it because it never tends to stay around very long. We had a snow day last week but it's mostly gone now because of the rain. Anakin took these two pictures of some mountains that had snow on them. I always think that the snow makes the mountains look magical and so inviting. Maybe one of these days I'll get back to skiing again. I used to go cross country skiing when I was younger. I'd love to try that again. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Baking girl

I have felt like a baking Goddess lately. I have spent a lot of hours in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes and trying to bake and cook some new things for the family! It's been a lot of fun and the family has really enjoyed my cooking. I've made some different types of stews and soups in the slow cooker. I really love my slow cooker! I use it all the time. I cook up healthy vegetables and let it simmer for 6 hours. It makes the place smell great and everyone is happy with the dinner. It's really nice when I don't have a lot of time or energy to cook dinner. I just cook it in advance and then it's done when we are ready to eat. I made some mincemeat tarts recently which turned out great. Yesterday I made some chocolate (Devil's food) cupcakes frosted with homemade icing and decorated with gingerbread men and candy. They didn't last long!! They were all gone by the time The Walking Dead had ended. lol! :D My weekend was a productive one and a pretty relaxing one. Friday night was spent with Anakin. We had some really great sex which was unexpected. I was about to go to bed but he was suddenly horny and jumped me. We didn't get to play and tried to on Saturday. We only had a few hours of sitting so we tried to cram a lot into it. Unfortunately things ran late and then we got a whole bunch of interruptions!! The phone rang several times including a very stressful call from my ex husband. That killed a lot of the fun mood. We tried to get back into things but then the doorbell rang. I've never seen Master so frustrated!! Our FIL had dropped off our son an hour early. So a lot of the play came to a sudden end and we promised to get back to it but never did. This is the realities of having kids sometimes. *sighs* Not sure what the chances are of any play happening this week. My period is expected and there is a full week of errands and chores and a bleak outlook of having any time alone. I miss Anakin a lot today and don't feel like myself. Hopefully we'll get another chance to play on the darkside again really soon! May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

TGIF! Have a good weekend!

TGIF! Let the weekend begin! I can't wait until Anakin is home and I can cuddle up by our fireplace with him. I enjoyed a snow day yesterday with him. It felt soooo good to spend hours being together and keeping warm. We played and I got spanked! yah! I got some hand spanking and belt strapping. We had some great sex and orgasms! Then we napped. We went out in the snow and also cuddled up and watched a movie before bed. It was a really nice day. Today is a different story. It's dark and miserable. The snow has turned to slush. I *hate* slushy streets. They are the absolute worst to walk in!! The drivers always hit the slush and it goes all over me making me wet and not in a good way! lol. I woke up feeling depressed. I probably shouldn't have watched a sad movie because now it's made me feel angsty and sad. My Sister's Keeper is a really great movie. I recommend it but just be warned that it can be very intense. I'm probably a bit more extra sensitive because of losing my MIL to cancer recently. I found some scenes hit me really close to home. Hopefully things will improve when Master gets home and our weekend can begin. There is lots of plans to relax and also get more into the holiday mood. I'm going to try to get to some more baking so I can freeze it and have lots put away. I am planning to give out homemade baked goods to people like my FIL who won't have any homemade goodies this year. My MIL used to bake so many different things. This has been a difficult adjustment for our family. The journey continues and I look forward ahead to a new year coming up. Hopefully 2011 will be a great one. I'd love to plan for a really big trip and also maybe we'll finally move and find a bigger place. There are lots of possibilities and I can't wait to see what's ahead for us. Please make sure to check out our online store, Darkside Digital Arts for some holiday gifts ideas! I have ordered a few gifts for friends and family this Christmas. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Happy Thanksgiving to our American friends and readers!

We wanted to wish our American friends and readers a very happy Thanksgiving today! It feels like a holiday today for us even though we celebrated ours last month. I woke up to a lot of snow this morning. We've had a cold snap the last few days which has resulted in a nice big snowfall for Vancouver, BC. Anakin got a snow day and our kids are in school. We have enjoyed a morning of listening to Christmas jazz music and a big yummy breakfast together. We watched the snow fall and enjoyed some quiet time in the house. The Christmas lights sparkle on our tree and all over our house. It all feels magical. I'm so glad we got our Christmas stuff up before the snow came. Now we are heading upstairs to our bedroom for some play time on the darkside. Enjoy! May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

A touch of the darkside

I was looking through old pictures today and came across this one. It made me miss Anakin and his touch so badly. I love this picture. I can remember that night that we played down in our basement. It was a very special memory which stands out in my mind. I've played a lot through the years but this was one of the most erotic. I dressed up in my black PVC corset for the first time for Anakin. I had bought it for my birthday and wanted to show it off to him. It matched my PVC skirt perfectly. He had created an erotic scene in the basement. We had an overnight and hours to indulge in some play on the darkside. He tied me with rope with my hands behind me and put on a black blindfold onto my eyes so I could not see anything. I was completely dependant on him for everything. I was helpless and at his mercy. Being blindfolded always heightens my senses. He knows this and takes full advantage of it. He came up from behind me and put his hand onto my body.His touch always scares me but excites me greatly. He enjoyed teasing me and making me submit to his most sadistic desires. He is holding onto the metal chain flogger. A mean old man with his weapon of ass destruction. He knows that I get so wet when we go to the darkside. His hands have been so good to me at times. His massages are like heaven. I love when he pulls me hair or slaps my face. His fingers are like magic when they make me cum as I squirm around on them. I enjoy having his fist inside of me. His hands are powerful and strong too. They can hurt me and be very mean to my body. He knows just how to play me and how far to go. He's one of the few men I've played with who can really get into my head and light me on fire. That night he gave me a touch of the darkside. Showed me who owns me and controls all of me. A touch of the darkside and it makes me want more... May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Happy 14 year anniversary Master Anakin!

"I made a choice 13 years ago (on Nov. 23/96) to tell my best friend that I loved him. I had no idea how he felt about me at the time. He had learned to cover his feelings very well. I decided to risk the friendship to be honest about how I was feeling." "I had spent 7 years trying to deny the feelings that were there. Moments which I held back from touching him or kissing him. We even dated for a while and yet never slept together. I was not being true to myself." I had written a post called The Affair last year in which I blogged about some of my history with Anakin. That post tells you about how Anakin and I came to be together. I am so glad that I made that choice to tell Anakin how I really felt about him. I couldn't hold back my feelings any longer. I have always loved him. I loved when we became best friends at college. I loved him during all the times we hung out together and got to know one another. I am glad that we became friends first. I think this deepened our connection to each other. Today is our 14 year anniversary of being together. It was 14 years ago that I sat him down and told him that I loved him. We made love that night: "7 years of build up and that night it exploded. He grabbed my ass and that was it. It was the best sex of my life. The passion was incredible and the intensity of the love between us even though we both knew that it might not last." This morning we made love before he went to work. He woke me up and took what belongs to him. 14 years later and I am a slave and wife to Anakin. I had no idea that our journey would take us to where we are today. Our force is still strong and we continue to grow and connect. I can't imagine my life with anyone else. There have been many lovers and men in my life but only Anakin holds the key to my heart. He is my Owner and I will always stay true to him. Happy 14 year anniversary Master! i love you soooooo much!! i look forward to the journey ahead... May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Getting ready for the holidays

I am enjoying a nice cup of hot coffee and am finally glad that I have the chance to do some blogging. It is very hard for me to get onto the computer with the family around. The kids always need my attention and I've been spending a lot of time in the kitchen lately. The weekend was very busy with getting ready for the holidays. Anakin was home on Friday so we decided to try to get some Christmas shopping done. The plan was to shop and then come home and play. Shopping took a lot longer than expected and we ran out of time. Then the teen sent us a text and asked to be picked up. I know both of us were a bit disappointed that we didn't use the kid free time to our advantage. That's reality though. Sometimes we don't always find the time to play. It can be challenging when you've got kids. We were both frustrated that we didn't get the chance to play. I was hoping for a spanking to help me with some holiday stress release. An orgasm would have been nice too. lol. ;) We did get a lot of our Christmas shopping done though. I'd say we are about half way there to completing it. It feels good to get it done early because I hate crowded stores in December. I try to avoid them as much as I can. I've got to try to get out to Metrotown soon too. There are stores like Lush and even The Love Nest that I'd like to try to get to before Christmas. I'm hoping there will be some romantic nights for the holidays. I love to curl up next to our fireplace and get naughty under the Christmas tree. It's one of the best parts about Christmas. We watched Eat, Pray, Love on Friday night. It was a really good movie! I recommend it. It made me want to travel and see different parts of the world. I really hope that I'll have that chance to travel with Anakin now that our kids are getting older. I've got a dream to go to Hawaii one day with him and finally have our honeymoon that we never really got. We spent most of Saturday putting up our Christmas decorations and tree. We also picked up the main gift for Skywalker as well as more errands. I was very worn out and went to bed early. I've been catching up on some sleep that I missed while having insomnia. It felt good to sleep in and also not wake up in the middle of the night. We spent most of Sunday putting up our Christmas lights. I had forgotten that we bought a bunch of extra lights with my Dad's estate money last year. It took HOURS to get all our lights up. Anakin and I also worked together to get them all up. It was a really big job but the place looks very festive and ready for the holidays! I want to try to figure out my Christmas baking this week and also finish my cards to send off. I'm pretty organized this year and that feels good. I really miss Master this morning and feeling a bit lost. I've got my chores list though to keep me busy. It helps to keep my mind off things. Hopefully we'll have a chance to play this weekend. I miss playing on the darkside with Darth. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Happy HNT - Rubbing my sore bottom

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! It's been a while since I have been able to put up a newer picture of one of my spankings. This picture was taken last weekend during some play on the darkside with Anakin. We had gone out for our anniversary (14 years of being together) and had a very romantic evening. Then we came home and brought out all our toys. Our toy collection has gotten a lot bigger and we were able to create a really intense play session. We mixed in some romance with the bdsm play. We had put out the bed of roses all over our bed. I dressed up in some black lingerie with some new playboy panties that I got from Spencer's gifts. This picture was taken shortly after Anakin had whipped my ass hard across my ass cheeks. I instinctively put my hand back to my bottom to rub it and make it feel better. Of course this usually gets Anakin frustrated as the spanking has to stop while he orders me to remove my hand so he can spank me more. I can't help it though! My bum hurts and it feels much better to rub it better. :D We hope you enjoy our HNT picture this week. Click on the picture to enlarge it and get a better look. Please leave us a comment and let us know what you think. We have many more pictures to show if anyone is interested and we get enough comments. Please come out of the shadows and say hello. We'd love to hear from you and appreciate the comments. Please check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series. May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Congratulations Prince William!

I woke up this morning to a quickie with Anakin and then got some big Royal news. There was a lot of talk about it happening but it finally became official! Prince William is engaged! Yah! There is going to be a royal wedding next year with him and Kate Middleton. I have always been a big fan of the royal family. I can remember being up in the middle of the night to watch the Chuck and Di wedding in 1981!! It was a really huge deal at the time. I've watched all the royal events through the years. I got up again in the middle of the night to watch Lady Diana's funeral and cried many tears about losing her. I know that Diana would have been so proud that her oldest son is now engaged to be married. I can remember the day that William was born and her holding him in her arms. She was always very proud of her boys. They say that William will be King one day. There is a big open future of possibilities for the royal family now with a big wedding coming next year. Congratulations to Prince William and Kate! I can't wait to watch their wedding and see what unfolds in their future. Hopefully it turns out a lot better than Chuck and Di did. May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

A weekend on the darkside

I wish that I had the time to post about all the details of my fantastic weekend with Anakin. Unfortunately today is a very busy day and there is lots to get done. I am running short on time today. I did want to share some of the pictures that we took last night including two preparation ones. We played with a lot of different implements last night. You can see some really mean ones in the second picture including different canes and crops and even the wire hanger! Ouchies! At least he used the feather too. That was very erotic. *smiles* There was also lots of different paddles used as well as a hairbrush. The first picture shows the English Tawse on the bed ready to be used. I got LOTS of strokes with that. I woke up with a very sore ass and a well adjusted attitude. It was a weekend on the darkside. Friday night was very intense with some anal sex and my first beating. Anakin was very sadistic and mean to me and I came hard from it. Yesterday was very unexpected but another fun night on the darkside. We weren't sure that we would get sitting or not. My FIL was able to take our son though and the teen was at her Dad's house. We had a whole night with no kids! Yah! We decided to celebrate our 14 year anniversary of being together. The official day is on the 23rd but we were not sure we would get another chance at an overnight again for a while. So we celebrated it early. So who wants to hear about all the juicy details from last night? I also have some sexy pictures to show you too if you are interested. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

FuckToyFriday

TGIF! It's almost the weekend and I hope to play lots. I'm craving some play time with Darth Vader on the darkside. :D I've been getting very wet reading the FuckToy Fridays on Twitter this morning. It seems like a lot of people are participating in sending out sexy tweets on Fridays. I joined in last week and then sent out a few more this morning. These were a few of the sexy tweets I sent: Face down. Ass up. That's the way my Master likes to fuck me. He's going to fuck me in the ass tonight. And I'm going to beg for it. Beg for it or get beaten. my ass better be ready for the ass fucking that it will receive. He will show me no mercy. It will be a punishing ass fuck. i hear the jingle of his belt that he holds in his hand while he fucks my ass.I better take it or he'll beat me hard with it. I want to cum during the ass fucking but he denies me. He pushes me harder and closer to the edge. Can't cum but want to. ..... Mmmm...I can think of a lot more sexy tweets that I'd like to send for #FuckToyFriday! You can add me on twitter as "padmeamidala" if you want to follow my sexy tweets. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

I'm a stepford wife

My sister likes to call me the "stepford wife." She makes fun of my choice to stay home sometimes. She has chosen a different path by having a career first and then a family. I chose to have my kids first. I'm not sure if I will ever have a career. I'm not really sure I'd want to. I really enjoy being a stay at home wife. I consider myself lucky that we can have a traditional type of dynamic in our marriage. Some wives are forced to work because of finances and such. I really enjoy being able to watch my kids grow up and give them a structured and loving family. I have a lot of traditional beliefs and they come from a history of submissive women in my family. My MIL was very glad that I was a submissive housewife for Master Anakin. She told me many times that she was glad that I could be at home and be there for my family. Many people know that my marriage is a traditional one. Some people may not respect it but it was our own choice to the dynamic that would be in our marriage. Anakin came from a traditional home where his mom stayed home with her children. We both made the choice to have a 1950's type of household. He is the head of the household. He makes all the decisions for our family. I get disciplined (Christian domestic discipline) if I disobey him. It's very simple and it works well for us. We are celebrating our 14 year anniversary this month and continue with a strong force for our family. It is my opinion that my marriage is so strong because of our traditional beliefs. This will keep us together even in the most challenging of times for our marriage. I love and respect my husband and am so glad for our life together. He makes me feel so loved and taken care of. I am baking some homemade chocolate chip cookies right now. I'm wearing my apron and enjoying baking for my family. I feel like a submissive wife of the 1950's and I love it! I'm a stepford wife and I'm proud of it! :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

November rain

There has been lots of November rain already. This weekend has been a very dark and wet one. I haven't felt like leaving the house although we do have some things planned for today that will require it. I am trying very hard to get through this month. November is always a long and dark one for me. It was Daylight Savings time so I had extra time to sleep at least. I've been feeling really tired all the time. It seems like I can never get enough sleep. I've tried to be productive the last few days. I have been cooking and baking up a storm. I made homemade bread in the maker one day and also a homemade beef stew in the slow cooker. I've also been working on some projects to help me keep busy. We dug our Christmas stuff out of the storage yesterday. We plan to put up our outside lights soon. I also plan to start my Christmas shopping this week. It seems a bit crazy to be thinking about the holidays already but it's coming up very quickly. We are planning a big family celebration this year so I want to be organized and ready. It also helps me to keep busy. Anakin did not win the dream destination contest. It was nice to dream about though. We did talk about wanting to go on a vacation maybe next year though to Hawaii. We never got a proper honeymoon and the kids are a bit older now. I think it might be really nice to get away from it all after the holidays. I've been to Hawaii twice and love it!! I promised myself that I would go back one day. I'd love to be able to go with Master. It's something to look forward to. 2010 has not been that great of a year. I'm really hoping that next year will be much better. I am hoping to get back to regular blogging again. We did get an HNT picture up this week at least. There are a few blog posts that I have been planning to write. Hopefully I'll get more time this month while it's rainy and dark and I am wanting to write. I am looking forward to playing with Darth Vader again. It's been a while and I'd like a taste of the darkside. :D May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

Happy HNT - Schoolgirl cleavage

Happy HNT (Half-Nekkid Thursday) everyone! It's been a while since we shared an HNT picture. We are putting up a picture of me showing off some cleavage to Master Anakin. I was wearing my naughty schoolgirl outfit which turns him on like crazy. This top really shows off my tits. Please click on the picture to enlarge it and get a better look. We hope you enjoy the picture! Please leave us a comment. We love to get your comments and get feedback on our pictures. Please check out Osbasso's blog if you are interested in participating in the HNT series. May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala

A Fun Halloween

I had a very fun Halloween this year. I started celebrating it on Friday. Master Anakin was home and we had a whole day to play and get closer to the darkside together. We have not played like that in a long time. It was intense and very dark play. I had several marks and bruises on my body. I didn't realize til afterwords how much I had needed it. I had 3 orgasms in total that day. Our play went into the night as we spent a few more hours playing that night. I fell asleep exhausted and very content after all the play time with Master. We woke up on Saturday to Halloween plans with our son. We took him to the mall which had some pumpkin decorating. We also had breakfast all together. That night was a Halloween dinner with our FIL. It was a lot of fun! Some fun entertainment and contests including a 50/50 draw that we won. Yah! Skywalker won the contest for best male costume. Darth Vader seemed to be a bit hit with everyone! Lots of Star Wars fans all over commented and loved his costume. We came home from the dinner and played again later that night. Master was in a very sadistic mood and seemed intent on giving me some pain and pleasure. The endorphin high from all the play lasted well until yesterday for Halloween. I felt sooooo submissive and owned after he hurt me and used me hard. We both felt our strong force as we bonded through all of the darkside play. Halloween was lots of fun too for our family. We carved pumpkins and roasted up the seeds which was SO yummy! I am putting up a picture today of them. We also went over to visit my mom who had cookies and lots of treats for us. A bit sad that my MIL was not there to also visit. We used to always go over to show her the kid's costumes. It's all been a big adjustment for us. The teen and I both dressed up for Halloween. I wore my vampire costume which the kids seemed to love. I always try my best to make Halloween fun for them. We have our traditions which are always neat. We always order pizza for dinner so I don't have to cook. We both took our son trick or treating which was fun. I always enjoy visiting neighbors and checking out the cool places that are all decorated up for Halloween. I was really glad that the weather was so nice yesterday for Halloween. The storm went into today instead. It's been dark and rainy skies to start the month of November. I can really feel my SAD (seasonal affective disorder) starting. Daylight savings time is coming up so that means lots of darkness this month. I always tend to feel extra tired and fatigued during November. It doesn't help to have Christmas around the corner and all the planning that has to go into that. We are planning a very big family Christmas this year. I'm excited to get everyone together but dreading all the work that will have to go into it to get ready. Hopefully we will win another contest this week. The "dream destination contest" is being drawn on Thursday and I am crossing my fingers that we will win!! We are both starting to lean towards Maui if we win the contest. It would be really nice to get away to a tropical Island right now with the weather being so gross. The journey continues as we near the end of 2010. It's been a year full of ups and downs and many surprises. It will be interesting to see what happens next. May the force be with you all!! ~padme amidala
