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…
As 150 fellow bloggers are enjoying themselves at this year’s Disney Social Media Mom’s Celebration held at Walt Disney World in Florida, I thought it fitting to share a photo from our trip to DisneyLand two years ago. They say it’s the *Happiest Place On Earth* – well, it’s also the most magical. You might be a skeptic {shame on you lol} but you can’t fake the funk. It shows in their faces: …
We love Whitefish…and we feel lucky enough to get to spend two weeks each year at our Condo there {no, it’s not JUST ours…or trust me, we’d be there WAY more}. We, along with most of Brent’s family, gather twice a year {a week each} to enjoy some serious fun and RnR at our unit in Ptarmigan Village.…
I Believe In Holidays {And Was Born For It}
I felt pretty lucky growing up – it’s not like we took an insane amount of holidays but we did get to enjoy a few great ones and some fun getaways. Perhaps that’s where my love for them started. My parents owned their own business, and as such it was not a typical 9-5 work day. My dad worked in the field {finishing carpenter} from 6am-6pm 6 days a week and then came home to the in-house office to finish…
