With my 32nd birthday (today) and our second child’s birth looming around the corner, it got me thinking about my “bucket-list”. Not too long ago, I had fulfilled many items on my list. I went back-packing through Europe for four months, I skydived 10 times in places such as Switzerland, Israel and New Zealand (3 tandem jumps and 7 solo […]
Babymoon in Jamaica + Toddler
Going on a babymoon seems to be the latest trend these days. During my first pregnancy, it never even crossed our minds. We were doing a complete renovation on our house, and since Kyle was to be born in September, we spent most of the summer at the cottage. That made it feel like enough of […]
Maui with Baby. What to see and do!
Edit: It’s been 3 years since I wrote this post and we’ve been back to Maui since then with THREE (3) kids, five and under, in tow. I have an updated post about more of our family adventures: Maui with kids; what to see & do. Last year we were fortunate enough to go to Hawaii […]
Day and Night; Tremblant, Quebec has something for everyone
We just returned from our 2nd annual family ski trip to Mount Tremblant, Quebec. Unlike last year, Kyle and I flew there while the rest of the gang made the seven+ hour drive from Toronto. Kyle and I flew Porter (www.flyporter.com). I can’t say enough good things about this airline. The experience was amazing and […]
ZORBing in New Zealand

The start and end to my skydiving career
I should start off by clarifying that skydiving was never a career for me (sigh), but it was a passion of mine for a few years of my life. Being an adventure seeker for as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to skydive. I looked into it and quickly learned that I had […]
30 (+) days challenge heading into Spring break
We leave for Hawaii in just over a month (March 7th to be exact) and I’ll be the first to admit, I’ve been in a bit of a work-out ‘rut’ lately. I’ve just had no desire or motivation to do anything. With Kyle becoming a Toddler, working out during the day is mostly out of the question […]
Continue to travel with kids!
Growing up my parents were really big into traveling, and I got the “bug”. Travelling definitely tops my list of “hobbies”. When we had Kyle, I was excited to continue traveling like we always had, plus baby! We’ve been very fortunate to travel a bunch since the birth of our son Kyle. The first “trip” […]
