Project: Easter Brunch 2019
It’s that time – time for Easter Brunch 2019. Don’t you just love brunch? It’s like it’s own little extra meal. On days when we have brunch, I’ve usually eaten something small in the morning, like yogurt and fruit, then have brunch around 11am. Then around 2pm a snack and then dinner at the usual time. In no way shape or form does this one meal cancel out two. And, in no way do I eat twice as much than at another meal. All of…

Photos: Saying Goodbye to Lily
Saying Goodbye to Lily Saying goodbye is painful, especially when you know it’s the end. We said goodbye to our best friend with four adorable paws on Sunday night. It was not easy to say goodbye and it still hurts deeply. Lily, or Lily-cat as I often called her, had an exceptional life; and with having her in our lives came some of my most cherished memories. She loved to play, eat ice cream, and go for car rides. More than that, though, she loved…

It’s Lily’s 9th Birthday! Well, it was on January 18, 2018. She’s a Great Dane who is full of spunk and excited to turn 9.

I remember back in June, when we were in Glacier National Park in Montana with Lily, a lady came up to us and just started hugging Lily. Her Great Dane was at…

Photos: Thankful
It’s Thanksgiving weekend and the leaves are blowing around the front yard and I’m thankful for so many things: my lovely little family, the strong connections I share with the amazing people in my life, a wonderful job and blogging. I’m so grateful to have a space where I can share my love for life. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t always love life – sometimes it is unfair, illogical, and dark; yet blogging, for me, moves me past that into the light. And, the…

Travel: Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park has a part of my heart forever. It’s so beautiful and I was delightfully happy spending 3 days with Bryce and Lily in the massive national park. See it if you get a chance – you won’t be sorry. We traveled the Going-to-the-Sun-Road and cooked on our camp fire. Do you want to see more about our trip?

Rush Gets Married
Rush Gets Married My little brother Noah, who is called Rush by his close friends, is saying “I do” this afternoon to Tiana. She is a picture perfect person – kind, generous, and real. There is a lot of physical distance between us, they live in Ontario and we live in Alberta, yet we’ve made the trip to Ontario twice before the wedding to meet Noah and Tiana as a couple. They are flat out in love. With regards to Noah, I want to share…
