So much for me posting a couple days after Noah's 7th Birthday! It's already been a week and I am just looking through the photos from my camera. Nonetheless, his 7th birthday had to be one that he could cherish forever, and by doing that, we had to work with what we got (especially during this time), so that when he's older, maybe he'll look back at this post and be able to reminisce of his one and only - Quarantine Birthday! A few weeks prior to his big day, my mom planned

Finally! Our Monton Annual trip has come and gone. Feeling like every year will be bittersweet as we pack our things back up to head home after a memorable, fun filled weekend. I feel very fortunate to be able to spend times such as this with family. And although it's only our second year going, it has been the most anticipated and most memorable time of our year. Being able to experience unexplainable gratitude as we wake up to home cooked meals (thanks to the early morning

My cousin, Carla, moved to Toronto about two years ago now. It was her dream to move out there for as long as I could remember. She fell in love with the big city, the fast pace environment, everything it had to offer. Carla set foot independently and has worked her way to become a great influencer in the hair and beauty industry. She not only sells and promotes hair products, but has worked hard to keep her store sustainably green by reducing waste, recycling majority of the

The festivities from Thanksgiving has finally come to an end and I probably gained 10 pounds from all the food (and beer). Needless to say, I'm happy I was able to finally be surrounded by loved ones. So I'll take it as a win! Amidst all the dinner parties and food comas, we come across, yet again, a whole lot (and I mean, a lot!) of plastic. Due to our unfortunate nature to be mindless of single-use plastics. I made sure to be prepared. It was time to put my reusable necessi

I find it funny how J-DAY became an actual thing. Not like we shouldn't celebrate my sister's special day - But the fact that those who are close to us know that as September comes around, it's not only J-DAY, but it's J-WEEK, hell - it's J-MONTH! So to remember her 23rd birthday this year, I thought it be nice to post some pictures up! Thank you to everyone that showed up and made her feel extra special. She definitely deserves the love that you guys have given her all month

I told myself last year that this summer I'd finally go on an adventure! I didn't want to spend my whole summer at home working so the minute I found out that our cousins were planning our uncle's 70th Birthday out in Wisconsin Dells, we booked work off, packed our stuff, and made a "SIBS TRIP" out of it! Although Wisconsin Dells wasn't the ideal place (I wanted to go somewhere tropical), it was still a vacation worth while! We long drove early Thursday morning to head over t

And just like that... We are on year number 5! Ron and I have gone from being everyone's least favourite couple, skipping the drama and moving provinces, going in and out of major debt, to taking turns sleeping on the couch, only to find ourselves still in complete and utterly love for one another. I told him that I have never been with anyone longer than three years that once our four year anniversary came around, he made it clear that he was here to stay. This year I got a

We're about 90% settled in and I'm about 99% going insane! I grew pimples in places I never thought I could, and I seriously feel like my hair is falling out way more than normal. Since we've been back it's been an on-going roller coaster with an endless amount of unpacking, job searching, and furniture shopping. We live with my sister and all three of our dogs with 2 couches, 2 crock pots, 2 sets of pots and pans - 2 of EVERYTHING! Nonetheless, my heart is happy! Since ther

Okay, so it's finally time to tell our story about how we met our last fur baby, Enzo. Now my plan was never to have more than obviously, two dogs, but because Ronnie was so persistent in convincing me that Wiz needed someone he could play with, I considered that three wouldn't be too hard. And of course, I was wrong. It was about the same time last year when we starting searching online if there were any breeders close by. We already knew we wanted to own another bulldog but

Life is too short to wait for "next time" or to skip what you think are important events. We are never promised a tomorrow and yet we take advantage of it like it's always going to be given to us... This year I've had to say bye to 3 people that have crossed in my lifetime. And whether they were family or not, it still hurts as much. We've come across world wide news of unfortunate events with mass shootings or even local updates of people we knew back in high school going to

Initially, I wanted to have my blog as a tool to express myself because I know I wouldn't be able to say most of the things out loud that I've already talked about. I mentally prepared myself for the worst given that I didn't start my blog from scratch (like I said I wanted to do), I barely planned how I was going to promote my own site, or what I would talk about. All I knew was that I wanted to create existence of different aspects in my life that mattered to me. And althou

I know, I know. You think I'm crazy for owning 3 dogs. And if you didn't know that, now you do! The craziness that goes on in my household is beyond me, and I wouldn't have it any other way! My part 2 is about my lovely baby Wiz. You're probably asking why we named him, Wiz, right? As much as I would like to tell you, I can't. Because I forgot, and regardless, it stuck! He is my French Bulldog x Boston Terrier brindled baby boy. The one that has big popping-out looking eyes,

Putz was born October 14, 2007 and we picked him up from PetLand on February 5, 2008. So he's been part of our family since then and will be turning 10 years old in 9 days! So I thought it would be a great time to post a blog about my journey with my beautiful, loving, oldie of a Maltese dog, Putz. Trying to be as accurate as I can, from what I can remember at least. My brother and I would occasionally spend our time going to pet stores to look at all sorts of animals. One da

Today is one special day. It's Ronnie's Birthday! -- For those who don't know him, he is my partner in crime, my best-friend, and the love of my life! I've been on the verge this whole morning trying to find the PERFECT gift. And although I am here blogging about it, you have already assumed that I have found nothing. And, you're right, I have diddley-squat! I've tried to listen to him bumble on about things he wish he had to grow his brand (link). Things like photoshop files
