This year has been very much about rearranging – my priorities, my work life, and now, all the stuff in our home to bring more flow and function to our family. When we moved into our house nearly 3 years ago now, I was 10 months preggers, and days away from delivering our fourth and final babe. The energy to organize the house impeccably just
We did it…again!💕 And I’ve finally got the post finished so many of you keep asking me for! (Bonus: a video to go along with this down below thanks to an incredible friend who knows a thing or two about video production). Today also happens to be my parents’ 47th Wedding Anniversary. They were high school sweethearts like Andrew & I, and have been an
Our big guys have just finished a busy season of competitive hockey, and while we may have more time on our hands without the demanding schedule, I don’t really see things slowing down. Having four kids means lots of energy to manage or things get a little whirly around here. I was made for a slower pace of life but being a mama of
Spring has sprung and so have the commitments in our calendar. I always find Spring such a celebration-filled time. I love having my birthday in Spring, and its also the season we became parents for the first time to our son Brody. We also had all four kids` baptisms in the Springtime – the season of renewal and rebirth. Like us, you probably have
Let’s face it, hair care for busy Moms is tough in the best of times, add to it the havoc cold, dry Winter air wreaks on our locks, and well, it can seem like a lot of effort to keep our tresses healthy until warmer weather returns.

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, we thought we’d share our favourite heart-inspired, super-easy family meal idea. Gone are the days where we seek out a fancy restaurant, and instead opt to have a simple, but special affair at home with the kids. And when I say simple, I mean easy-peasy, under 20 minutes to prep + cook simple 😉 And what’s the way to

“Nothing in nature blooms all year long…” Feeling a little too much pressure to smash goals, be on and amazing, have your whole year planned out and become your best self in just the first few weeks of the year? Holy expectation, Batman! Seriously, remove that insane pressure. Sometimes it’s okay if the only thing you accomplish in a day is time to BREATHE!
We’re back to regular programing around here. Routine is good for us all, I find. While I loved having no schedule, time off work and loads of time to “just be”, lots of time indoors because of the extreme cold had us all going a bit insane. I always find the end/beginning of the year is such a reflective time – what’s happened over the
Happy New Year, guys! We had our usual seafood dinner, dance parties and kiddy countdown last night, and the struggle to make it to midnight was real. Andrew woke up 20 seconds before midnight, we did a quick toast and went to bed. Low key, a little crazy, a lot of loud, and kinda how we roll most days. Today was finally less silly cold
