How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Crammed Full

in Family on 05/11/14

My day was crammed full.  Stuffed with family time and visits.  Giggles and bad photo opps.  Sunshine and too many desserts.  Blessed to have been spoiled by both my children and my Husband who eloquently said; “You may not be my Mother, but I am so grateful you are the Mother of my children.”  I am blessed.

Happy Mother’s Day to you, and hugs to those missing their Mama’s today…

    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.
