Weekend Recap

I got zero pictures this weekend. oops :) Friday after work, I ran to the Superstore to pick up my order of groceries, and went to Swiss Chalet to pick up a quick dinner. When I got home, we ate and put the groceries away. We have a TON of wood and cardboard to burn, so we ended up starting a fire around 7:00. The kids played with the neighbour and we sat around the fire with the neighbour adults and had a drink. Around 8:30 I put the kids to bed, and the neighbours went home. Tyler and I relaxed in the hot tub for a bit and then went inside for a snack and to watch some Dragons Den. On Saturday, everyone slept in until about 8:00. We got up, made some breakfast for the kids and I headed out to the Outgrow Outplay sale at the EY center. I got a lot of fall clothes for the kids, which we needed (Pants for keira and sweaters, and long sleeve shirts for Garett), so now I have much less on my "to buy" list :) Afterwards, I ran to Walmart to pick up a photo order I placed on...

Labour Day Weekend Recap

Labour Day long weekend was great! Early on Saturday August 31, we were in the car and were Vaughn bound! We only had to stop one time for a pee break and a breakfast adventure. We made it to Vaughn in really good time (not a lot of traffic), so we walked around for a bit before our timeslot at Legoland began. I wasn't sure what to expect for Legoland since I had previously seen it was located in the Vaughn Mills Mall. But its on the list of largest enclosed malls in Canada and it was huge inside! We went on the rides, the kids did their activity packs (collect a stamp from each activity/station), played, had a snack in the cafĂ©,  and did some shopping. If you're thinking about going--you should go!! Afterwards, we went to the Disney store, and because it was Marvel's 80th anniversary, the kids were included in a parade. Keira was the only one to pick the Pascal (from Tangled) mask, and Garett was the only one to pick C3PO from Sta...

Weekend Catch-Up

It was a jam packed weekend, and it was so much fun! Wednesday after work, I came home to a COLD house. The AC was finally fixed! We decided to celebrate by making some yummy chocolate cupcakes (my helper and I) Thursday I worked from home, but was stuck on conference calls most of the day, so I feel like I didnt get to catch up on any house stuff (usually I'll run some laundry and clean the kitchen). Oh well! Friday I was off for the day (I booked it when I thought we were going to the cottage), so I dropped off the kids and went to spend the day in Cornwall with my family. It was so nice to just be able to hang out with them without the interruption of my kids (I love them to death, but it was a nice break), and to sit down to a meal with just my sister and do some shopping (we probably havent done this since Garett was a baby). She sent home some clothes for the kids, and Keira could not wait to put this dress on, go figure! lol That evening, I packed eve...
