A trip to Medieval Times Toronto is like a step back into time, another era, where valiant knights fight for chivalry and kings and princesses reign proud. Toronto Castle has a magical feel and right from the large looming wooden doors of the front entrance, you literally feel like you’ve left the modern world behind. Treating your mom to a visit to the castle is a wonderful way to celebrate Mother's Day! Not only will she receive a delicious meal and live entertainment, she'll … [Read more...]

disclosure: We received a complimentary stay with Ste. Anne's Spa, however, all opinions expressed are honest and my own. Ste. Anne's Spa is an all-inclusive destination spa located in the heart of Northumberland's rolling countryside. Perfect for a relaxing and rejuvenating girlfriend getaway! In the months leading up to my 40th birthday I did a lot of soul searching. I realized there were a couple of things I valued but probably also took for granted. The first … [Read more...]

disclosure: We received a complimentary stay with Viamede Resort, however, all opinions expressed are honest and my own. Standing on the porch gazing out on the frozen lake dotted with a row of white cottages I told myself I was looking for deer, but part of me was waiting for Patrick Swayze to run across the lawn to meet up with Baby. Something about this quaint resort, with the white buildings and fine dining made me feel like I was on the set at the 1987 blockbuster hit Dirty … [Read more...]

disclosure: We received a complimentary stay with Viamede Resort, however, all opinions expressed are honest and my own. My family has a passion for travel, but we also love having a furry member of the family and those two things don’t often mix. Our previous dog Riley often spent time at our local kennel and our hearts literally broke a little leaving her there each time. Our newest addition to the family is a Mini Australian Shepherd puppy, and I knew we had to find a way for us … [Read more...]

When I mentioned to my GTA friends that I was thinking of bringing the family downtown Toronto for the Santa Claus parade last weekend, they made it clear that under no uncertain terms were we to attempt driving. They warned me that the crazy traffic, hard to find parking spaces and cost of parking our vehicle would have us stressed out before we even found a spot to watch the parade. I knew they were right, and in the end, we followed their advice and decided to take our family on a little … [Read more...]

Growing up my parents took my brother and I out on many camping holidays, we started in a tent when we were really small and graduated to a tent-trailer when we were older and moved around to different campgrounds each time. My husband spent all of his summers at the same campground year after year, in a large trailer. So we are no strangers to camping, but fast forward to three kids and almost 40 years old and roughing it no longer sounds like a good time. We were delighted to find the perfect … [Read more...]
