For something like this it only seemed natural that Codi and I touch base on some SUPER easy to care for indoor plants. You know the ones that you can’t kill no matter how hard you try. Or not try! Needless to say we may not have the greenest thumb but we still really love house plants and greenery. We still try no matter what and there are plants out there for those of you who can’t keep any plants living for to long!…
There’s SNOW Time Like The Present
I feel like that’s been life’s motto lately, there’s no time like the present. Recently, I’ve been doing much more of that. With quitting my job and being home with the kids and Drew. Working from home has been somewhat of a new balance for me. One that I’m still trying to get use to. When I think about it for the last 15 years (minus maternity leaves) I’ve always worked, I’ve always worked outside of the home. That has been my forever routine. …
Heart Churro Waffles | Recipe
Good Morning!!
Now these might look like some normal yummy tasting waffles to you, but I added something a little more special to make them taste even better. I made these for the Valentines Day we had last week, and as a failed mother I made them after Owen went to school so when he came home after and there was only one left for him… Let’s just say I got into some BIG trouble! So I defiantly need to make these again they were that good. Easy to!…
Celebrate Your Galentine {Brunch Party}
One of my biggest goals for this new year, after leaving my job was to make more of an effort to visit my friends. To have more coffee dates, play dates and just good old fashion hang out time. Reconnecting and enjoying the friendships that are closest to me. Somewhere down the line, between the house, full time work, kids etc. It was one thing that I sometimes slacked, not on purpose but just because life gets way to busy and out of control!…
Make That Media Kit | Tips On Making Yours
So before I get started, defiantly not an expert, I’m writing this as someone who has gone through many hours of research and creating. Starting little and then working my way up. This just gives you an idea on how I’m directing mine and making more of an effort to create one. Still not exactly how I would like it but I feel like many things it will constantly be a work in progress. I love the idea of a media kit. When I first started I for sure thought it was a bit extreme but the more and more I started to do the more I realized that having one is key to getting more!…
Living Room Essentials | WayFair
We have been slowly making our way into finally getting settled in our home, we’ve been living here for about two years now. But owning feels just a little different, we’ve been taking our time figuring out what to buy, where to put it and what looks good where! It feels like we’re starting to find our style in our home and making it ours. Month by month we’ve been piecing together each room in our house. Starting with the kids, ours, bathrooms, halls and now living room & dining room. I can’t begin to describe my love hate relationship with Pinterest. There are so many wonderful ideas that I love them all and want to use them all!…

STAR LIGHT STAR BRIGHT | New Years with Kids DIY’s
As most of us prepare for an evening dressed up and out kid free for New Years, our little family will be spending it home with kids. Like most years, we don’t really go out and celebrate. It’s really hard to find things to do for New Years outside of the house. Every year we find ourselves in this dilemma and I refuse to spend it like another day. Because it’s not, my hope is for my littles to look back over their year and appreciate everything they were blessed with good and the bad. Despite it all we’ve made some huge accomplishments! Sooo finding fun things to do at home to make ringing in the New Year a little more special, well we’ve got a plan in mind…….
Fairmont Vancouver for the Santa Claus Parade
Our family visit to the Fairmont Vancouver to watch our first ever Vancouver Santa Claus Parade was by far one of our most memorable family weekends away. To start off I’m not going to get into detail the stress we endured to make it there with rush hour traffic. So lets skip that part! The boys had decided that they also wanted to watch the hockey game at Rogers Arena before hand. The Toronto Maple Leafs (Drew’s favourite team) were in Vancouver for the only time this year to play the Canucks. They had the best time together! It was one of their first games together as well so it was extra special….
Sweet Braided Blueberry Pie
We’ve officially entered that baking time of the year. Have you started?? I’m not as quite caught up as I would like to be but soon I’ll be getting my butt into gear. I started with this really simple sweet blueberry pie. Thanks to Klassen Farms in Chilliwack, I was able to recently load up on some of their really tasty frozen blueberries!…
