How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

It Was A Rockin Talkin Elf Hat!

in Uncategorized on 12/28/11

Who knew some of our biggest giggles on Christmas Eve would come from passing around the best Christmas Hat ever created!  The Rockin Talkin Elf Hat from Hallmark Canada!  With a simple press of a button this bright coloured hat takes a room full of fairly quiet family members into rowdy, laughing kids with cheers of “Again” and “Ohhh I… View Post

Basking In The Glow

in Everyday on 12/24/11

It’s almost Christmas Eve.  A night to celebrate all that is special to us in our own unique ways.  For me, for our family, we celebrate by making time for family, exchanging gifts, sharing a meal, a laugh and counting our blessings.  I try desperately too often in vain to slow down and enjoy each moment, knowing that childhood is… View Post

Squeezing in Date Night with #Equal and #CBias

in Uncategorized on 12/23/11

The Christmas crazies have taken over my life and I have a confession to make; date night with Hubby, it’s fallen victim to the time crunch.  Sad right?  This week we swore we would carve out even just an hour for each other and sneak away for some couple time.  I might have cheated a bit, we headed to Starbucks,… View Post

How To Survive Christmas In The Suburbs

in Uncategorized on 12/22/11

Christmas is coming and it’s confession time.  I am NOT ready this year.  I have decided I need to help myself by taking a little pressure off!  Here is a post from a couple of years ago.  I’m going to go and wrap some pressies, finish some shopping and re-bake the cookies I ate.  If you don’t see me commenting… View Post

Christmas is less then a week a way people!  Are you ready?  I didn’t think so.  (If you are, just don’t tell people, there are a lot of jealous evil haters in the world.  Cough.  Cough.)  One major thing I still have to get stroked off my Christmas to do list…make the worst and best Christmas Cookies ever created.

Wild Nights and Gingerbread Houses

in Everyday on 12/19/11

One precious weekend a year the In-Laws take the kids over night for an evening of Gingerbread House making, movie watching, and overindulging.  From the state of them when they get home, I’m pretty sure sleep is not something happening at this “sleep” over.  You know what?  I don’t care!  I look forward to this weekend all year long!  I… View Post

Tell Me the Truth You Bunch of Liars

in Everyday on 12/16/11

So I’ve been reading lots of lists lately.  You are all so nice. So warm, and fuzzy and grateful for the wonderful things in your life.  Waxing poetic about how much you love your Husbands, your kids, the roof over your head and the extra time with your family. To that I say PFFFT.  Whatever!  Might I add Uh Duh? … View Post

Surviving Childhood and The Stupid Things We Do

in Everyday, Family on 12/15/11

I dropped my daughter off at the movies last night.  She was with three girlfriends, had a cell phone in her pocket and had been read the riot act about stranger danger, going to the bathroom in pairs and every other rule I could think of.  This made me think about how protective, not over protective, just protective we feel… View Post

Some places make you feel a little something.
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. 🇬🇷🤍

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!

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