Sunday we partook in what has become a tradition with Gord’s family every year. The Sunday of the labour day weekend we head to the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) in Toronto.

Today Gord and I celebrate our six year anniversary. Happy Anniversary to us!
Looking back at things - I really believe we were *meant* to meet. Gord used to work at the bar I used to frequent. We had crossed path more times then I can even remember and I had actually at one point dated […]
This past weekend, one of my best friend’s son’s turned one! ONE already!!! Where does the time go?

However, we had an amazing week. As selfish as it sounds - I was so grateful to have my boys all […]
Well I managed to pull it off. Gord turned 30 this past Friday and had no clue that I had planned a weekend camping trip. The irony however was that we both called his boss and asked for the same day off for him. So, he knew he was off, didn’t know I was off […]

Perhaps bigger for me then it was Myles!
Friday Myles had his JK orientation. I had arranged to take an hour or so off work today so could be there for it, I mean this is a pretty big moment - I did not want to miss it. So imagine my surprise when the teacher handed […]
