In the summer, Caity bought Skylanders Giants with her own money…..the love for that game spread quickly among the siblings and soon we were surrounded by ALL the characters. Don’t make me discuss the new Swapforce. So we were thrilled therefore to check out Disney’s Infinity being that it is the same model of game […]
Children Reflect
On Friday I attended the schools Remembrance Day assembly. Once again, I chuckled at the mad scramble for more chairs as the school yet again underestimated how many parents were there. But soon we managed to settle down and enjoy what the teachers and kids had done to honour our armed services and the […]
2014 Honda Odyssey – The Minivan Mom Dreams About
No really. The Odyssey was all ready the unicorn of minivans and now this…..I really have no words. I haven’t had a chance to try too many other minivans. The one’s I have tried were good vans and all had great features, but I do not think any other car company will ever reach […]
Thor: The Dark World
I am not an expert at writing movie reviews…that is my husbands world. For movie info you can go to his site. He usually gets the screeners for the Marvel films, and he did, but so did I…so coins were tossed and children had to decide who got to go…it was me. 🙂 Thor: […]
Help the Fight Against Cancer in our Pets

Which Way Back
Tara gets really mad at me if I forget to read a book to her at bedtime. What I love is that the two older kids come and listen too. Despite all the tech in the house, my kids still love books and the magic of reading. So Tara was THRILLED when I returned from […]
Halloween 2013
Another Halloween now being all packed up ready for storage for another year. It was a much more low key Halloween than the old days when both Patrick and I and his friends had the energy to put together a huge display AND spend money on more stuff and costumes for the kids. This year was […]
Staples Canada Tech Giveaway
Before I get to the good stuff, let me tell you why it took so long (partly) to write this post. October has not been a good month. There has been so much bleh sickness running through the house since the kids started school, so I have been feeling very run down. It has also […]
Take a Ride in Style With the 2013 GMC Acadia Denali
I have been tooling around town in a few small and sporty vehicles that were fun indeed, but I have to admit I have a weakness for all things BIG. J Therefore I felt a bit giddy when I went to pick up the 2013 GMC Acadia with a Denali trim. In reality for a […]
