We’re approaching Canada day and I’m a little sad we won’t be hosting our yearly Canada day pool party but I’m beyond thankful to live in this beautiful province/country. Canada may not be perfect but there’s a lot of good here!!

Thankful Thursday Week 24/52
It’s been a week friends! We’re busy with the renovation but still found time to go to Campbell valley park this week and get out for some walks! I’m not going to lie I haven’t been doing much exercising lately (and it shows) and I feel blah most days I terms of fitness but getting out for walks these week has been helpful. I’m thankful for my lil walking buddies and the beauty of the forests near us! 
Thankful Thursday Week 23/52
How is it already June?!?
This year has been crazy and somedays it’s hard to find positivity and gratitude given all that’s going on around us. But if I’ve learned anything from this it’s that your gratitude doesn’t have to be a big thing or something easy to explain. Just taking a few minutes to think about what I’m thankful for can often reset my negative energy!
So today I’m thankful we finally booked out kitchen counter install date! Our renovation has been on hold due to covid but it’s looking like we are able to move forward!
Thankful Thursday Week 22/52
Happy Thursday friends! This week I’m thankful for this little moments I get to create things! This past February Kevin encouraged me to buy a cricut and I’ve fallen in love with creating stencils to paint signs!
I love the process and the finished product! I find it very relaxing! 
Thankful Thursday Week 21/52
I’m thankful for the quiet moments with Jacob. We started the week with breakfast and playing a barrel of monkeys on the patio and it really reminded me how simple and special it is to have those moments. I’m grateful for this time at home with him!
Thankful Thursday Week 20/52

Thankful Thursday Week 20/52
I’m going to tell you the truth! I’m cranky! I’m really tired of this covid situation. I’m trying to stay positive but the whole woah is me, prisoner in my own home feeling is intense lately!
I tell myself it’s ok to visit cranky town and self pity palace but it’s not ok to live there!
So let’s talk about what I’m thankful for!
I went out this week for the first time in over two months! Like into a store! Near other people!! I’m thankful no one coughed on me! I’m thankful my anxiety didn’t reduce me to tears! It was a weird experience! The direction lines on the floors and stand here dots! The uneasy feeling when anyone gets within 10 feet of me!!! This whole situation is wild! Honestly I’m not a fan! I’m thankful I went out but was thankful to return home to my own bubble!
I’m also incredibly thankful my Erin Condren life planner arrived in record time! 
Thankful Thursday Week 19/52
I’m thankful that the recent seizure Muffin had didn’t take her from us. 
Thankful Thursday Week 18/52 Birthday Edition 🎂
It’s my birthday!! 38! How did that happen?!?
I have to say my day was leaps and bounds better then I expected it was going to be! I’ve sort of been blah about my birthday for the past few weeks because of the covid quarantine situation. But my friends and family really surprised me today!! For that I’m thankful!
My morning started out with lots of love and treats from my boys! Then a knock on the door to discover my best friend had brought over gifts and my favourite cake! Thanks to her I got to enjoy lunch time cake and a social visit in the driveway with my parents!
Later in the day another friend delivered the most beautiful floral bouquet to me!
In the afternoon Kevin took me for a drive to get out of the house and found a road side flower stand and I got to pick out more flowers!
These little gesture where so uplifting! I felt very loved all day! It was a great birthday and I’m very thankful for everyone who helped bring me joy!
