1. It’s been 1 week and 3 days since we’ve moved in.
2. I love love LOVED living Uptown and honestly if we would have found our house Uptown we would have stayed! But -I did not know how much I would LOVE living a little bit outside of the city. It feels sooooo refreshing and calm.
3. We wanted the exterior railing up as soon as possible and Justin got it done in record time. We were afraid the dog would fall off the edge and really unsure why there was no railing there to begin with.

1. Mason is almost 9 months old!! Where did our puppy go!!!! On our trip to St. Andrews this weekend every second person that walked by stopped to talk to Mason LOL. Every single person that chatted with us could not believe how big he was. (and he's still growing. LOL)
2. I can't believe we are already into July. It only feels like the past week the weather has felt like real "summer", like shorts season. lollll.

2017
So, I normally write this post around my birthday in November, but life was way too crazy between then and now. So here it is, a little recap of this year, challenges and highs and some resolutions for 2018.
I kicked off last New Year’s Eve on the rooftop of the condo, watching fireworks, surrounded by all my favourite people, friends & family. It was pure happiness, laughter and so much fun. It was a great night to set the tone for the year, and it did. This year was spent very close by to my closest friends and family.

Hi guys!! It's been a while since I've popped on here, life has been absolutely crazy. From our trip to LA to getting a new PUPPY! We have been so so busy. I'm feeling pretty sick today so I'm finally having a day completely IN and not feeling bad about it! Also, it's snowing, so snow day for me. Hahah

1. These past few months have been full of business ups and downs. I've been turning to startup podcasts more than ever to keep reminding that "The struggle is part of the story."
2. I have been loving the skin care products by Robi!! They are a Canadian company based in Toronto. I got a good haul in the mail from them and have been testing out their serums and cleansing oils.
3. I'm taking bookings for grad & family photos!! I used to take these a lot in my earlier days and I miss it so much!! Book me!!! My prices haven't changed a bit!!
4. I've been on a huge painting kick this past little while.
5. All summer I've been addicted to everything s'more flavoured. -Golden grahams, golden grahm bars, s'mores, ritz smores crackers....
6. I bought a GoPro!! I don't know how to use it yet, but I can't wait to make some new movies from another perspective.
7. I'm letting my roots grow out right now, I am really liking the contrast of dark hair against light hair. I'm liking the less perfect more grungyish look, for now. Haha
8. We got a new bed!! I'm obsessed with it!!! It's a king size and again, I'm obsessed with it.
9. I found some incredible finds last night at Value Village.
10. I watched the series on Netflix called Thirteen a little while ago and I'm still thinking about it. It's about a girl who got abducted, and it is SO good.
Year 1 of Self-Employment. - 5 things you need to know
Holy shit. It’s been exactly one year since I’ve been completely on my own. No routine of a pay check every two weeks, no comfort of a student loan being inputted into my bank account when funds are running low. Nothing spotting me, no financial help from my parents, no direct deposits, z i p. It’s crazy to think about and sometimes I can’t believe I even had the guts to take the leap.

Eeeeee! We're dog sitting this week! You guys might have seen this little pup in my snaps over the past year. This is Bessie B. She is a Golden Doodle and we got her this time last year, she just turned 1! She lives with my dad, step mom & brother in Grand Bay, but we get her a lot. We brought her to Area506 this past weekend and I cannot believe how much attention she gets from strangers!! I think it's her colouring and her shaggy coat, they aren't as popular around here.
