You’re busy, I get it. So am I. So, today I’m sharing 3 super easy kid-approved Christmas activities that you can with very little prep (I’m talking no extra trip to the store!). This December we’ve been doing a Christmas activity advent calendar. Honestly, I probably took on a bit too much work (classic overcompensation!), […]

When I arrived for our pre-session meeting in Sherwood Park with this family, I immediately knew that our session was going to be FUN. It was the day before Halloween, and in the middle of the living room was a very accurate replica of a train engine, including working tail lights. The train was Ben’s […]

Working from home can be lonely. Like talk to your computer and hope it talks back lonely. I routinely bounce ideas off my husband but sometimes I need to hash ideas out with someone who is in the business. Enter, monthly meetings with my friend Katie. They are half meeting, half escape from the house. The ‘meetings’ take […]

Before I had kids I thought I knew all about the mess they would make. I was wrong. When I had one kid I figured adding one more wouldn’t make things THAT much more chaotic. I was wrong. If you have more than 2 kids you are probably sitting there laughing at my naiveté right now. Seriously […]
