Yesterday I was feeling pretty down thinking about how things used to be before I had kids, how much more organized my place was, how much cleaner it was. I wouldn’t trade my kids for anything, but I do miss everything being in it’s place and the fact that when I used to clean it…

First day of school, and mom learns
Tuesday the 2nd of September was Keera’s first day of school, where has the time gone? She’s already in grade 1. I was pretty proud of myself, this year I wasn’t an emotional wreck. She’s different this year, more mature, a different attitude, a different walk, and talk. She is more in control, last year…
My first family vacation with the trio
A couple of days ago I was reminiscing about our first summer vacation since all the kids were born. It’s only been about 11 days since we got back, we decided we’d head out near the middle of August since life has been pretty busy around here this summer. Even though we had only gone…

Careful what content you post on the Internet
Be careful what you put online, make sure it’s something that you want people to see. Keep track of what email account(s) you create, or what sites you join. I spent a good portion of my night, last night deleting accounts that I forgot I even owned (some dated back from when I was 14…
Calgary Stampede 2014
Sunday morning we woke up and went to a pancake breakfast at one of the churches here in the city. It’s been awhile since I had pancakes, and they were delicious! They also served strawberries, and the round sausages. Let’s not forget the juice. Mmmm!! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water again. Haha….

Canada Day, this is the first time since I moved to Calgary that we decided to go partake in the celebration held downtown. We started the day off by taking the C-train to downtown Calgary, it was packed as you would expect it to be on any holiday. We got there it was so overwhelming…
