We’ve definitely moved into summer mode in our house. We are going to bed a little later, getting up a little later and enjoying a splash in our temporary pool after our hot and humid days. We worked on our deck last weekend – so this weekend we might attempt the railing or the new …

Please indulge me this week as I put in my entry to win a flight and accommodation to Blogpodium Toronto! Aya kitchens is hosting a contest and to enter I need to show my ultimate party kitchen, choosing at least one image from their gallery. Well, look what I found above – the perfect bistro …

In addition to spring soccer, swim and gymnastic classes (why are they overlapping this month?), both kids take dance. This past week has been very busy …

I’m really looking forward to this long weekend. I hope the weather warms up a bit so we get to spend more time outside. We still have our regular scheduled Saturday swim and dance classes and courtesy of dear House of Brinson I’ll be taking a couple of Alt for Everyone classes. We are also …
