Photos: Michigan Hike
Michigan Hike It’s that time of year – time to hike. The fall colours are blooming and the weather is cool enough that you won’t over heat. It’s perfect. A few weeks ago we were travelling to Ontario for my brother’s wedding, which was so great, and we drove through the American way. We spent one night in North Dakota and the other night in Michigan. We woke up early after our second night and decided to go for a hike for a couple of…

Photos: Noah’s Ark Waterpark
Noah’s Ark Waterpark What a fun place to spend a day (or two). When I was little we went to Noah’s Ark on vacation. I’ll never forget constantly asking if my brother, who’s name is Noah, could get in for free because of his name. I was so proud of him and thought he should be rewarded! The sun was out, the day was 32 degrees C or 90 degrees F, and it was September 1. Thank goodness for the heatwave that moved in to…

Rush Gets Married

They are flat out in love. With regards to Noah, I want to share…

Photos: Paint Gun Hide and Seek
Paint gun hide and seek. Ah, yes. Why not on this awesome Friday. I did this with my husband about 3 weeks ago and I completely forgot to share it on here. Silly me. Again, slacking. So, a bit of inspiration can go a long way. About a year ago I saw a pin on Pinterest about a woman who had a similar sign for her husband when he got home, except it was played inside the house and with nerf guns. Our house is…
