How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

A Party All About Mom! #CAAChat Twitter Party!

in Uncategorized on 04/24/14

Before I was a Mom, Mother’s Day meant making sure I didn’t forget to call, send some quick flowers, or send those wishes of love to my beloved Mama.  After I became a Mom….my world went on tilt.  You can’t begin to know how much your own Mother loves you and has done for you until you have that babe of your own.  My big confession; after I became a Mother, those Mother’s Day gifts got a whole lot more thoughtful! 

Now that I’m a Mom I finally understand how much work it is to be a Mother, work of the best kind, work I love and am thankful for every day. I appreciate my Mom more then ever before and Mother’s Day is the one day a year we have a chance to show how much we really care; but where to start?  CAA offers a creative gift that will help to make sure that when my Mom is out and about she is looked after, cared for and safe, especially when she is alone on the road!  My Mom turns 70 this week, and I’m excited to have found a unique and thoughtful gift that provides a little peace of mind for both of us when she is on the road!  Not only is a CAA Membership card a great gift for her, or any Mom, but it spoils her with exclusive savings to some of her favourite retailers attractions & restaurants! 

Here is a quick insider tip!!  For every gift membership purchased the person who buys the gift and the person who receives it both receive a gift with purchase (Psst:  it is a trunk organizer filled with goodies!)

CAA

Everyone can benefit from a CAA Membership!  I was once again reassured that a CAA Membership was a great purchase for our little family on a stormy day this past winter.  I had to make the call for help, I was alone in a parking lot with my two girls, dark was setting in, the snow wasn’t stopping and my car was not starting.  It’s important to know what to do in these kinds of situations, it even better to know all you have to do is make one quick call, and  CAA will be there.  I want this kind of comfort for my Mom all year round.

Did you know CAA offers a ton of great benefits for its Members beyond jumping your car?  With the CAA Membership card Mom will be protected and enjoy exclusive savings and offers from some of her favourite retailers, restaurants and attractions.  CAA has several partners that offer exclusive discounts for CAA Members that my Mom would love!  Check out the exclusive savings and offers available from Teleflora, members can get a discount on flowers and you can never go wrong with flowers! Flowers not your style?  How about something pretty from Peoples, or Swarovski.  While I’m shopping for Mom, I may have to do some shopping for me!  Hello!  Special offers from Banana Republic, and Aldo!

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

    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!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
