Moving day is done, lots of unpacking still to do but the new house is starting to come together! (Hard to believe those two black couches are ones we bought from The Brick over fifteen years ago when we lived in Calgary. They’re still in great shape to this day!)
There are a zillion different moving guides online with all sorts of tips, tricks and reminders. But honestly, for our move, I found that using an online To Do manager with different lists for things like “Timeline”, “To Buy”, “To Pack”, “To Fix – Old House”, “To Fix – New House”, “Contact Info”, etc. (but […]
Here’s a pic of me with our realtor’s sign when we sold the condo we owned in Calgary in October 2004 and with the pending move (basically two nights left in our current home!), it’s got me thinking back on other places I’ve laid my head… 0-5 (?) – my parents live in a rental […]

I think I’ve probably posted this old viral video before but as we prep to move into our new house, it felt appropriate for a few reasons – the title “Home” obviously but also for how it reminds me of Sasha who’s increasingly into music and has taken to making up her own songs to […]
We moved to a newer part of the same community we’ve lived in for fifteen years. In fact, our new house is only about ten blocks from our current house (and shorter as the crow flies)! Because of this, the kids won’t have to change schools (a major consideration in our decision.) Not only that […]
