How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Miss Me?

in Travel on 08/23/12

I am (hopefully) relaxing in our rented cottage by a beautiful lake, deep, deep in the woods.  So blessed to be surrounded by my family and making memories that will last a lifetime.

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!
