Camping season is finally upon us! We headed out for the first time this past weekend and after being in our home for the past 12 weeks, driving just a few hours north felt like a major vacation. New trails! New ice cream shack! New sunrise to wake up to! It was magical. We’ve camped […]

Ok, so we’re all home and we’re all creating day after day, after day! Crafts and drawing and paper airplanes and paper houses. It’s all great and is keeping us occupied with our kids, but also, it can become OVERWHELMING! If your house is anything like mine, the paper and miscellaneous craft junk is overtaking […]

Every single year February and March roll around and before I know it, I’m having to think about booking camping sites and summer camps for the kids. It’s hard to do while we’re still in the depths of winter, but the reality is that if you wait too long, the good summer camps for the […]

That’s the definition of crazy around our house. I’m still drinking coffee. The kids can take a while waking up. The light […]

A few weeks ago we got back from an amazing trip to Disneyland with our girls. We’d planned the trip for months and months and we all had an even better time than we thought we would! Our girls are 4 & 7 and it felt like the perfect age as they were big enough […]

Here we go again! If you missed it, last year I rounded up my favourite things of 2017, and it turned into quite a popular blog post. So, this year I kept a running list all year long so that I could share my new favourite things with you again. Ready? In no particular order, […]

We are half way through September already, but shiza, I don’t know where the last 2 weeks went! School started, we got back into a routine, I had more sessions than normal and there it went… Anyhow, I hope your September (snowy September if you live in Edmonton!) is off to a great start and […]

Is there anything worse than thinking you booked a kickass campsite, only to get there and realize that you’re in the middle of a wide-open field with not a playground or a sandpit in site for your kids to play in? Ok, yes, there are worse things (like snow in August, which I know from […]
