I feel like I could break out into a dashboard song at any moment - summertime

I have loved reading your summer posts! I am missing all things summer. It is funny what I took for granted as a kid...free Black berries for starters. I keep seeing everyone posting their jams and I went to the shops to just get a few as a treat ....7$!!! Nearly 75 cents a berry! Umm no thanks! They do come frozen. I guess I could make a crumble.  I would have I lower my expectations though. But I think I just might! 

An update on us 
William has stopped napping in the day! I am mourning the lose of day time sleep, but enjoying him as he grows and matures into a little man. 
We got the call today that he got a place in child care two days a week. Also very bitter sweet for me. I will miss him so much those days. But it is much needed for my own sanity. And it also gives me quality time with Lucas. Whom has started walking! And talking! His favourite word.... Boobies! Not even joking! I can't even come out of the shower or get changes with out him getting excited! He even tried to pull my shirt down to get to them! He loves to feed! Lol hopefully he starts to wean himself soon. I have no idea how I'll pull him away otherwise! 

Aaron and I are going well too! Day in day out stuff. 
I can not wait for my parents to arrive at the end of October. So if you want to send anything that's your chance!

Miss you all so much! I loved your holiday pics on Facebook. It looks like you had such a great time and so jealous. I want a turkey dinner now!!! 

Enjoy the end if summer as we wait for it to start here 🌻☀️

My life this summer in photos

Hello, I promised I would update pictures once my COMPUTER (not commuter) started acting normal! 

Quinn and I went to the Abbotsford Airshow On August 9. It was so cool to see these planes fly so close. It was a great show to see! Quinn was like a kid in a candy store! 



Emma came to visit Quinn and I last weekend. Emma and I went to the seattle outlets on Friday and then on Saturday we did the Grouse Grind! Quinn and I have done this before with Krisitne but Emma hadn't done it before and always wanted to. 


Quinn: 59 minutes
                                                      Emma: 1 hour 15 minutes
                                                     Aalysia: 1 hour 8 minutes

I was so proud of Emma when she reached the top because 1 hour and 15 minutes is an AMAZING first time grind! 


While we were up the mountain we saw a grizzly bear. He peeked out among the fog and was so close we could touch him! He was so sweet! 

I am off this next week to go to the Island camping, i'm sure i'll have some more pictures when I return 


Love you ALL XO

I am so sorry I seem to have checked out for a bit… but i'm BACK!

Hello loves! 

I have been super busy with work and all that goes on living in Vancouver. I am missing everyone so much. Quinn and I are doing well, we are just burying our heads with work and trying to get everything done for Thursday at 3PM, because then, WE ARE ON HOLIDAYS! 

Quinn and I will be on the island (camping for the majority of it) at Rathtrevor beach for Colyn camp and then going to Stamp Falls for a couple nights. We are so grateful to get to go home and spend time with our families who we miss so much! 

I wanted to upload some pictures but my commuter is having conniptions…. I will update soon! 

Kristine and Alysia have so much fun together in minni, I'm of so very jealous, but very happy for you both! 

Ella I will see you in 2 DAYS!!! 

Micah, we should FaceTime in the next couple days if possible because i miss you terribly! 

LOVE YOU ALL!

Summer Rain


This morning I woke up to the sound of the pouring rain.
And I had an overwhelming desire to jump off Micah's Oma & Opa's dock, into the lake, with the rain beating down.
Then I had an overwhelming craving for a long chat over a warm cup of tea with the four of you.
I guess I'll have to settle for the tea.

Sending love.
Xo, A
