Music Monday – “Away from these memories, my life I must spend/Adios amigo, adios my friend”

Back from a one week all-inclusive holiday (even from blogging if you can believe it!) but lots to start catching up on – a review of our resort for sure (last year, it took me three weeks to cobble together a review of our resort – I wonder if I’ll be quicker this year?) Also […]

Saturday Snap – Adios!

Farewell to this… Spend a few hours on this… Hola to this…

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – How Did I Get Here? – #4 – Travel

Not sure if I’ll end up blogging much when we’re in Mexico next week but I thought making “travel” #4 in this series would be a good way to head into our holiday either way. The funny part is that my love of travel actually starts from a weird piece of family trivia – I […]

Saturday Snap – What’s The Worst That Can Happen If Your Mom Is A Nurse and Your Dad Is A Librarian?

I can only hope our son escapes the indignity of becoming Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada! 😉

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Walk Through of Our Room at Moon Palace, Cancun (February 2018)

So in exactly one month, we’ll be on our way to Cancun…but who’s counting? (Well, I guess I’m counting, especially since the weather’s been -40 recently!) Anyhow, I finally got around to uploading another room walk-through video from our resort last year. I always have intention to do something a bit more professional/polished on our […]

Saturday Snap – A bit of a winter storm tonight meant…

…we basically had the rink to ourselves for public skating.  Pretty fun!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Happy New Year (December 31, 2010)

We’ve had a few memorable New Year’s Eves over the years including a trip to Moose Jaw’s Temple Gardens Mineral Spa for NYE nearly a decade ago!
