This past weekend I attended the Blissdom Canada conference in Mississauga, Ontario. Women (and a few brave men) come from coast to coast to attend this popular social media conference each year, and 2013 did not disappoint. If anything, they upped their game! The wine flowed, the hugs were plenty and the laughter was infectious! From the amazing power hour to the closing keynote from Drew Dudley, each of us had our personal a-ha moments to take away. For me, that moment came during Neil … [Read more...]

The leaves are starting to change and paint fiery pixels across the trees lines, it's my favourite time of year! Fall is all about hiking in the woods, exploring corn mazes, picking out the perfect pumpkin and our beloved Fall Fair! It's a busy month of picking apples and scouring shops for the best Halloween costume, but we love every minute of it because we know Jack Frost is waiting right around the corner. Before too long the last crimson leave will drop and we will trade … [Read more...]

October is Fire Safety Month! Time to test/replace your alarms! First Alert is a brand name my family has known and trusted for years. Every floor of our house is equipped with at least one smoke alarm, but sometimes it can be hard to find just the right place to install one. Obviously, safety comes first and the unit needs to go where it will work the best, but at the same time, aesthetics come into play too. Items like smoke alarms used to be a bit of an eye sore, but not anymore! First Alert … [Read more...]

Last fall my husband and I had our 10 year anniversary. We celebrated the occasion with some take out Thai food. yeah, woohooo, right?

With our 11 year anniversary right around the corner we were ready to let the day slip by … [Read more...]

Want to hear one of my best tips for expecting mamas?? Expect the Unexpected, or rather don't go into the birth thing with any expectations at all. Just see what happens and roll with it. After two years of trying to conceive and dealing with a less than compassionate obgyn, I decided to enlist the care of midwives when we finally, FINALLY, were blessed with becoming pregnant. I had literally sat in my obgyn's waiting room for hours at appointments and had witnessed the doctor "ducking … [Read more...]
