How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

My Kind Of Skating, Requires Back Up ~ Stars On Ice!

in Family on 05/01/13

Skating for me requires a very strong man (my Hubby to hold me up), those big boards (that I use to stop), and ideally Advil….both before and after.  I am clearly not a skating kind of girl.  I do however appreciate the beauty, grace and true athleticism required for a full grown being to launch themselves across a frozen piece of water.   It’s even more amazing to me that a group of athletes, Olympians and World Champions, can gather all in one place, put their skating to the most fabulous music, and can make a crowd jump to their feet cheering with awe and excitement!

This is the experience I had this past weekend.  Thanks to Jergens® I had the opportunity to pack up my SweetGirl and her Bestie and spend an entire afternoon lost in the magic produced by the likes of Kurt Browning, Patrick Chan, Shawn Sawyer, Joannie Rochette and local loves Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir!

They skated, they entertained, they made us laugh and cheer.  It was a great family fun afternoon at Budweiser Gardens.  Thanks Jergens®! 

Pst..are you a skating fan?  There are still a few shows left in a few select cities!

      We planned on going to this but never could find a free night to go! Thanks for sharing your pictures!

      P.S. what are the boards you’re referring to?? (I might be asking for myself… haha)

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

    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.
