Girls Day

It's been a while since my last blog but with school just around the corner I feel like we haven't had a moment to spare.  It's been go, go, go trying to get everyone ready for the new school year.  Last week was a special treat...my oldest son was at hockey camp and my hubby had a surprise day off.  It was perfect timing considering I had a doctor's appointment and tons of errands to run.  Thankfully my two year old got to stay home with daddy, while I took both girls out on the town.
 
After my doctor's appointment we stopped for lunch, then we headed to Yorkdale for girls day.  My four year loves going to mall and unfortunately I think she has inherited my passion for shopping...daddy is not too impressed -ha!  We spent the afternoon trying on clothes, accessories and enjoying some yummy treats.  We managed to spend all of my birthday money and came home with a little something for everyone.  By the end of the day the girls were so tired, they both fell fast asleep for the car ride home - and I enjoyed a little quiet time.
 
It was honestly the best afternoon.  I never get the chance to go shopping at the mall...but even better was spending time with my four year old, doing something we both love to do.
 
And we're off!
 
 
At the Disney Store:)
 
All smiles
 
 
 
Both boys loved their new hoodies!
 
Enjoy the rest of the week!

To My Grandpa on his 100th Birthday

    On Sunday my grandfather turned 100 and we had a beautiful celebration.  I promise to post photos from the event once they are ready...I can hardly wait to see them!  Today I decided to share my speech completely unaltered.  If it sounds like I'm talking, it's because I literally recorded myself talking to myself about my grandpa...then I typed out what I said - almost word for word.  It truly helped me to speak from the heart and talk about the memories I'll have forever...   For my grandpa on his 100 th birthday…   My grandfather was born on February 18 th , 1918…fast forward about 64 years, and that’s when I came into the picture.   And that’s where I’m going to start.   My grandfather has been a part of my life as far back as I can remember.   At a very young age my mom and I moved into a neighbourhood in North Mississauga.   Not long after my grandparents moved into their home just one st...

Tasca Park

    A couple weeks ago it was a beautiful Sunday morning and all I wanted to do was pack up the car with the entire family and head out to enjoy the day.  I was thinking something really fun - like heading to Center Island.  The reality was we were completely unprepared for any kind of outing...especially one that required planning ahead and being organized.  Instead we decided to save our Island adventure for another day (maybe even another year -ha!) and got to work cleaning up some things around the house.  All those really boring things I hate doing on a Sunday, but those are the same things you're grateful you did when Monday morning rolls around.    By the afternoon we were feeling ready and prepped for the week ahead but I still had that desire to get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather.  My hubby and I decided to throw the diaper bag in the car, fill up the water bottles and head out to one of the local parks in Caledon...

On A Positive Note

I hope everyone is staying home and staying healthy.  What an unbelievable time we are living in right now.  Most days seem completely manageable, but some days I question if I'm even going to make to the next🤔. Despite this crazy, chaotic, some days memorable, other days questionable, and needless to say - an unforgettable period in our lives, I have managed to recognize some of the more positive things...in no particular order. 1.  My kids can and do eat peanut butter every single day for lunch #noallergies #winning  2.  After being a stay at home mom for the majority of the past 9 years, I was questioning if I was really ready to step back into my career as a teacher...it's only day 23 of this quarantine - but yup it's been determined, I am definitely ready to go back to work. 3.  I think after all this, those parents who maybe didn't fully appreciate teachers or comprehend the full extent of what they do - will now perhaps have a c...
