Summertime on the Sunshine Coast is an especially wonderful time. The days are long and bright, the water is warm(er) but always refreshing, and there is always something to do outside. From kayaking and mountain biking to sitting on your own or someone else's deck and drinking a cold beer. I honestly feel a little… Continue reading Summer’s Still Here

Three
Today marks three years since our wedding day. Let's be real - three years is not that many to be married.

It wasn't a long drive for us and our trusty 4Runner took us right to the base of the… Continue reading Mt. Daniels Hike
I Can’t – I Have to Babysit
Friday night we got the call to puppy-sit. In classic babysitter style, we raided the fridge, wound up our charge, and put her to bed. Peter's solution for not listening: There was a lot of this.

Long Weekend, Long Weekend, Long Weekend
That's a pretty beautiful pairing of words, isn't it? Oh, Canada! Thanks for the long weekend! What did I do? Got dressed up and had a fancy dinner out with my handsome husband. We had a gift certificate (Thanks Jen!) to a nice restaurant nearby and ate delicious food while watching the rain fall over… Continue reading Long Weekend, Long Weekend, Long Weekend
30 Day Dress Challenge – The End
Day 28 - Friday Since I wore a different dress during the day on Friday, I originally thought I'd post a "night and day" type of thing. But I forgot to take a picture of my day. My day look was a repeat of Day 14 so just look at that picture again...but I have… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge – The End
