Welcome to what we call- "sure why not season"Sure why not season is when mom is not working and no one is in school.There are no agendas or have to do items. There is no time frame for the completion of anything. We eat when we are hungry. We play. We talk. We move more slowly. We forget the day … [Read more...]
March Break Getaways
You've done it again. Waited too long to book something and now you're wondering where to go, what to do and how much it's all going to cost. But fear not.While it's true that the best price breaks for the getaway - when everyone and their grandmother wants to go away - were probably to be had a … [Read more...]
Saturday night
What a rainy start to March break. A peaceful day nevertheless. All the kids' activities are on hold due to the holiday week, and it is so liberating. What a boon to have a day to do nothing but relax, cuddle and loll around with my babies. Makes me think that it would be nice … [Read more...]
March Break, Crafts, A 5k, Baking, and More Snow
March Break is over and I have to say that I miss the fun of it. I was working most of the time but my kids were thrilled with the cool activities and tons of playdates.

It took me an hour to figure out how to use the wireless network at the ski lodge so unfortunately I now have to go and pick up the Gaffer from her lesson. I'll have to load pictures later but wanted to put in a quick note of thanks for all the sympathy for my wicked, wicked, wicked … [Read more...]

March Forward
Posting was unusually sporadic last week - I was rather sick and more than a bit uninspired. We have been sick SO much this winter, with at least one family member being ailing every day since January first, and apparently we're not alone in our cooties-covered condition - several families in town … [Read more...]
Spring Break: Close to Home
I cannot believe that it is already the first week in February – where did January go? As much as I don’t love winter, you really can’t beat those beautiful crisp days where you can spend hours building forts and snow “people”. And with February comes the last minute plans for Spring Break. … [Read more...]
