We love to play with my Sis’s extra large outdoor Jenga Game. It stacks to over 4 feet and includes a heavy-duty carry bag. It is hours of fun at the beach, in the backyard or at the cabin!
Last summer we went to My Sis and BIL’s campsite and they had this Double Camping Chair next to the fire. It is SO comfortable and it is exactly the right chair for a cozy fireside date with your Honey or the perfect spot to make s’mores with your Little One!
We bought this StoreYourBoard BLAT Tool Storage Rack for all our shovels and lawn care items. It is a heavy-duty, solid steel, wall mount organizer that can hold up to a max. of 200 lbs.
I bought this Backpack for Ninja this past Christmas. It is a great 35L lightweight hiking bag that folds up easily for storage. It has been great for a light pack on bike rides and during our afternoons geocaching.

The first week of summer was a busy one! After a hot Canada Day I took a rest and tried my best to stay cool. The heat is a real kicker! Aunty C took the kids to see Transformers, and I took HBear and SBean to Kelowna to get some much-needed summer items! Ninja and I went out with my SIL out for cocktails and appies at Kin & Folk and then the whole family got together on Saturday for a pool party and my In Law’s! Our BIL’s parents are in town visiting from New Brunswick, it was a nice visit and we also celebrated SweetPea and Ninja’s birthdays! Too much fun, too much sun and too much wine 😂 meant a full day of recovery for me, but Ninja and his Sister and Uncle S, took all the cousins to Westside Daze! It was almost 40°C in a dusty field but they had a ton of fun! We ended our week celebrating Ninja. We went out for dinner with Ninja’s Parents and Sister for the first time in years! Happy Birthday Ninja, I don’t know what we would do without you! You are thoughtful, considerate, sexy, my favourite sous chef, and my bestest friend. I love you 😘 ❤️.
