Local Love Ontario – Where to Eat & Wander with Your Family this Summer (*UPDATED: including FALL*) It feels like forever-ago since we did a family travel post. I’ve missed it. All these life restrictions weren’t on our family vision board! 😉 Like many of you, we’ve had to post-pone/cancel Summer travel plans. So, we won’t be resorting or jet-setting to some of the
Our Winters are long, our schedules full, and our weary parenting souls were in need of a reset by January’s end. We found a pocket in the kids’ schedules and knew it was time to invest in our well-being & some much needed couple time to connect. We’re grateful for Nana and Papa who step in when they know we need a break, and heading
The temperatures are quickly dropping & the white stuff has already made an appearance in our neck of the woods. While we’re all bundled cozy in our parkas this week I’m warming up by reminiscing of our family getaway to Jamaica & our unforgettable stay at Jewel Grande Montego Bay Resort & Spa. I wanted to get this post up sooner, but, well, life! But
It’s been over 3 years since hubs & I have spent more than a few hours away from the babes. No longer in the season of babyhood, but now in a season of full calendars filled with kids’ activities and social events, finding time for “US” is tricky.

Here are 4 reasons you should add this one to your family getaway list if you’re looking for classic family fun in Muskoka! *Disclosure: Two-nights’ accommodation & meals
It had been 14 years since my last visit to la belle province Québec. Last time a romantic whirl in Montreal with hubs, and before that a Grade 7 class ski trip MANY years ago. This time, an epic mom-son adventure to immerse in an array of activities and soak in some uninterrupted one-on-one bonding time with my oldest I crave being usually tugged in
Memories of Mom Camp Part 2: I’ve been visiting Grey County steady for the last 13 years with our gang, but oblivious to the array of culinary gems and emerging wine and cider region that lies just a little deeper north beyond The Blue Mountains region. If you’re looking to add even more unique experiences to your Mom Camp/Retreat after your first leg at Blue
Memories of Mom Camp Part 1: You guys know what an advocate I am for a good ol’ Mom time-out/retreat. It’s never easy to step away from our families, but so necessary to recharge, and in turn, return a better version of ourselves to pour back into our people and all the things tugging at our attention daily. So, when offered the opportunity to
It’s been a month since we returned from our getaway to Dreams Playa Mujeres Golf & Spa Resort and I’m happy to be finally sitting down to tell you all about our experience and give you an honest review of the property.
