Every time I work out I have two little shadows that join in, trying their best to mimick the moves. I love it, and we always end up laughing and enjoy a wee moment of bonding. I love it when the kids see me exercising and doing what I can to keep myself healthy and strong {though, admittedly it’s not as often as I’d prefer}. And I love seeing them up and moving too – so much better than just…
I had to pin this activity myself so it would qualify for this particular feature. lol So, it is now on my Pinterest, but I actually found this fantastic idea from Domestic Charm – who originally found it from Smashed Peas and Carrots {which have both easily been added to my favorites list}. I was on my way to pick my daughter up from school but was determined to try this as soon as we got home. I am so…
Alright, alright….a lot of work goes into making sure The Calgary Zoo is anything but ugly, and I would agree they do a great job. Really they do. But let me tell you about my visit there, what I found out, and why it didn’t surprise me. After our morning at The Calgary Zoo, we went to spend some time with my cousin and her kids. While I was telling her about our zoo experience, she mentioned that they are…
Okay, the truth is – all in all, I LOVE the Zoo. So the experience all around is great. Seeing animals we wouldn’t likely see otherwise is always a special treat, particularly when they indulge us and do more than just lay around. lol But I have to admit, there were a few {only a few} things that I noticed that sort of fall under *The Bad* cateogory {Read about The Good HERE}. Wonder what they are?…
While on a recent trip to Calgary for some training Brent had, the kids and I spent one of the days at The Calgary Zoo. A favorite place of mine since I was a child, though I haven’t been since Brooklyn was about 9 months old. Every year I plan to take the kids, and every year goes by without making it happen. But now we’ve done it. And it was awesome. I admit, there is an element of me…
Well we did it – we got to see the Penguins. Thanks to a recent business/training trip in Calgary {for Brent}, me and the kids had a great time playing all day. The Zoo was a must on our list and it did not disappoint {except the sort of lame Canadian Wild section which not only has arguably the most boring animals but also the most amount of walking}. We waited in line about 15 minutes and were then ushered…
It’s Dance Recital Week…..arguably the busiest week of the year for me. It started tonight with Jonah’s preschool concert {last one ever}, and continues with dress rehearsals for dance Tuesday and Wednesday, and follows up with performances Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday afternoon, and Saturday night. I also have a baby shower to attend thursday night and another I am helping plan for Sunday afternoon. Busy but super exciting week. As a result, my blogging will be minimal…but instead of…
