Yay for the first day of summer!!! To kick summer off and celebrate Father's Day, we headed to the beach this weekend. There's something just super exciting about prepping for the first beach day of the year. I gathered up sand toys, baked some treats to snack on, put loads of beverages in the fridge so they would be icy cold, and of course slathered the kids in sunscreen, it was supposed to be over 30 degrees afterall. I use sunscreen on my body as well, but one area I just can't do is my … [Read more...]
Ageless Summer with Olay {Giveaway}
The Miracle of Pantene
Winter is not exactly my favourite month, but it does have it's benefits. Being able to smush a winter toque over my head, means I'm out the door in minutes and never have to worry about what my hair looks like. I've got a few cute winter hats that I just love to wear and always miss them in the spring when it's no longer necessary to be wearing one. I do push the toque season longer than the average person, that's for sure! Truth is, at 40, my hair is not as soft and lively as it once was. … [Read more...]

I don't think we've ever gone out for Valentine's Day, … [Read more...]
Age is just a number, Olay Ageless
Sooooo...... a blogger you all know and love is turning the BIG 4-0 next month. Yup, I'm a February baby so I've been busy this week renewing my health card and drivers license and all that jazz. Not that I needed a reminder that my 40th was coming up quickly or anything, in fact, I kind of just thinking of myself as forty months ago. It's here, why not embrace it. The good news is, I can still pass for much younger. My kids ages don't even give me away because I know plenty of … [Read more...]

Walmart Celebrates Back to School Beauty
The final few weeks of summer are upon us, can I get a collective Boo! While the lazy days of summer are certainly relaxing and fun, it's also good to get back into that routine come fall. This year comes with a little change for us as my kids will no longer be taking the bus. That means, no more shuffling to the bus stop in yoga pants and fresh out of bed hair for me, I'll actually have to get dressed and drive them to the school where I'll have to look like I have my act half together at … [Read more...]
