A love letter to my better half: On this day, 41

A love letter to my better half:

On this day, 41 years ago, my best friend was born. It took 31 years of his life to come into mine, and from that moment we became a unit.
You have healed me, you have grown me, you have cheered me on. From child birth to growing our businesses, you have stood by my side taking on as much as you could so that I didn’t have to bear it all.
I cannot picture life without you by my side, fighting each battle that comes, celebrating each milestone we reach and I’m just so dang happy to have you.
Happy Birthday big bear!

When your @mobiliacanada order comes in and you no

When your @mobiliacanada order comes in and you now live out on your front porch until snow starts.

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I don’t vibe well with proper outdoor furniture. You know, the plastic type, weaved to look expensive, but still missing the mark. That’s why we wanted to create an outdoor space with a ton of contrast to our black exterior. What do you think? (Gifted)

Too soon?

I know Fall truly isn’t here until the 21st, but as soon as kids are back in school and the wind feels colder, I’m ready for all things Fall. Pumpkins count. On the blog I rounded up everyone’s suggestions for movies to watch to get in the Autumn spirit from my stories last week and the synopsis for each. As well as a fun checklist you can find on the blog or my stories. I think we are starting with Stepmom tonight!

We spent the afternoon on the beach saying goodbye to summer vacay the true NS way.

Traditions are huge in our family. We had a lot of traditions we truly stuck to growing up, one of which was my mom making seasonal photo albums from all of her film she had developed from that season. They are one of my favourite things to look back on. Unfortunately with the lives we all live now, it’s just so busy that you forget to print photos, even as people who do photography for a living. Last year we started the tradition of printing off a hard cover photo book from @onceuponapp and it was so easy we have continued to do it for each summer going forward. What I love about it is that it’s accessible from your phone. As soon as you take some amazing shots you want to savor forever, you just upload it to the app, and it’s ready to add to the photo book at the end of the season. Use my discount code wild25 for 25% off your order.

Do you print off your photos?

In just a couple weeks, this room goes from a beach towel dumping ground to book bag storage and new sneakers. As you know, we have had a rough summer and also a very busy one with many family members visiting from different parts of the world. Fall is coming and I am so ready to get back into our family routines and sweater weather. Who’s with me?

This is us.

With reels taking over Instagram, I wanted to give you guys a quick reminder that we are here and are always posting all of our projects in still photos over on our Pinterest account. We know details can be tough to look at on a reel so make sure you head over to Pinterest so you can zoom in and save for your next project. #pinterestforthewin

When you almost passed up these chairs and then got them because you thought you’d have FOMO if you left them. But, you got them home and now are INLOVE! it’s the curved arms and spun leg mix for me. What do you think?

Dog days of summer… we sure love our old pup pup

Dog days of summer… we sure love our old pup pup around here. 7.5 years after adopting him as a puppy from the SPCA and we couldn’t think of like without him.

One of the biggest worries when we travel is what

One of the biggest worries when we travel is what is going on in the house. From a monitored fire alarm to a backyard camera, Eastlink Smart Home and Security has us completely covered from everywhere we roam. It’s as easy as a quick peek at our Alarm.com app to make sure that the home we leave for the day or the week will be safe and sound until we get back. For us, it’s a no brainer!

After 7 months we finally got Emmitt into the Asth

After 7 months we finally got Emmitt into the Asthma clinic. It was a good appt and we are getting some more specified testing to come, but man, with three kids all with Asthma, this has been a journey over the last 7 years since Aubrey was diagnosed.
Needless to say, coming home to fresh hydrangeas and relaxation was welcomed. Oh, and some good ol’ episodes of Mickey Mouse club house for Em.

I feel like once you become a parent, you become more aware of your surroundings and you definitely worry a whole bunch more. Growing up in the small town, my parents never locked our front door and we never really worried about anything bad happening to us or our home. But after four years of owning this house and a few interesting situations, we decided to get Eastlink Smart Home & Security installed.

We love that we have easy access to the Alarm.com app so we can control everything with the tap of a button! It also allows us to monitor what’s happening in and around our home through the outdoor camera and we can lock/unlock our door remotely.

We use @eastlinkca products for everything else in our life so it was a no brainer to go with them for this. Head to the link in my bio to know more about it and how you can customize Eastlink’s Smart Home & Security for your home.

Yup, you are seeing that right, we still have yet

Yup, you are seeing that right, we still have yet to finish the drawer on our cabinet. Let’s just say summer seems to have been flat out since it started AND THATS OK! Who else is apart of the 95% club? As in you finish a project to 95% and then move on. 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

I've admitted this before on here, especially bein

I've admitted this before on here, especially being a blogger and getting bullied for my grammar. I grew up very slow reader, to the point that the teachers knew to give me a bit extra time on all of my reading assignments. It wasn't until my entry level exam in college that I was diagnosed with dyslexia. When I read a book, it takes me three or four times to read one sentence before actually registering as to what it says. I tend to put extra letters into words or read them in a different order. I was always so jealous of those people who could curl up with a book and enjoy it. Over the last few years my mom started using audiobooks more and more. So, when one of my favourite designer duos released their book, I decided to test out Kobo Audiobooks. It was perfect. I can comprehend what I'm listening to right away and still get invested in each book (it can actually improve this by over 70% for struggling readers). It's now my escape when I'm cleaning the house or going for my morning walk. I'm on book 15 of the year and I've started to listen to all the trending books everyone's talking about. I get so much more out of listening to a book, then listening to music. If you are like me and want to read but struggle, @kobobooks are definitely the way to go. #thekobolife #koboaudiobooks #kobopartner

Our Poor Emmitt has gone through a lot over the last year and one of the things that developed this winter is skin issues. When dealing with dry skin, we’ve learned it’s all about what products we use. I have sworn by @cerave_canada facewash for years now so we have started to use their baby line on Emmitt. It has worked wonders! From their wash & shampoo to their moisturizers and healing ointment, it's been helping a lot with Emmitt’s skin issues, making small moments like this, memories for a lifetime. #developedwithderms # ad

My fave season is here. Also once upon a time @amberinteriors reposted this shot so I felt it was appropriate. Who loves Hydrangeas like me?

Summer is here, and with three kids, multiple camp

Summer is here, and with three kids, multiple camps and everything in between, it means some of the busiest months of our year. We brought on @hellofreshca to take the guesswork and planning out of supper so that we can spend more time hanging out with the kids and creating memories all summer long. With everything you need to create delicious recipes delivered straight to your door, it was seriously a no brainer for us. Use code 20DECOELIS for up to 20 free meals and free shipping.

We are on day 3 of summer vacation and I’m already excited for Fall, sweaters and pumpkins. Who’s with me?

Last day of school has just been dismissed and I’ve got three excited kids because not only are they free for the summer but We are about to have the busiest summer yet when it comes to cousins from around the world. I’ll just be over here smelling my roses hoping the days don’t go by too fast.
