    Take the 30 Day Steps Challenge Now!

    January 2, 2023 / No Comments

    Time to step up your fitness routine with the 30 Day Steps Challenge! Fitness and health are top of mind right now for everyone. Globally, January is the time that people shrug off the old year’s habits and resolve to make things better health wise. Well, typically that’s the case anyways. This time of year I am often skiing, but also I commit to reinjecting my daily routine with a stronger level of commitment. This is also the time of year that I might consider doing something new, like adopting a new challenge to see if I can make an impact on health and fitness. That’s why I am taking…

    Twenty-one Things I Am Proud of in 2020

    January 2, 2021 /

    So what are you proud of in 2020? What was your greatest accomplishment? What are you proud of in 2020? People keep asking this question. Part of me wants to be a total smart ass when I read the question – I mean 2020 accomplishments at the end of the year were dramatically different than our expectations at the start. Let’s be clear. I got up, got out of bed and kept going in a year full of anxiety and stress. That was enough many days. My 2020 Moments Instead of making it a negative or griping or dismissing the entire year, I keep saying the same thing, which leads…

    How My Word of The Year Became a Matter of Life or Death

    June 13, 2018 /

    “I wish Dad was younger,” my daughter said driving home from a play rehearsal the other night. “If you think about it he could be 70 when I am in my 20s.” Math is not usually our conversation on the drive home. Neither is life or death. But here we are. Often I have to wonder how their minds work. “I wish you were younger too. I mean if you think about it you could both be dead before I’m 40.” Oh my god my head hurts some days keeping up with this kid. But I get it. It’s a fear of dying and every child has that to a…

    New Year’s Goals – How to Stick to Them

    December 24, 2016 /

    New Year’s Goals are something that we all throw out there when the clock strikes midnight and the new year rolls in. The problem with these goals is that we never seem to stick to them. We want to get more sleep, but two days later, we’re binge watching a show until 1 AM. We want to eat healthier, but it takes about 4 days before we’re chowing down on the leftover holiday cookies. So how can we stick to our New Year’s Goals? How to Stick to Your New Year’s Goals While all of these goals that we have are well-intentioned, we rarely succeed. Why is that? Well, for…

    Nuryl Baby Brain App Using Smart Music

    November 24, 2016 /

    Have you heard of Nuryl app? Perhaps you should pay attention to this new baby brain app. Smart music equals a smart baby. It’s true. Science has shown that children who engage in musical activities do better in school across the board, especially in math. That same connection between music and better learning holds true for babies as well. That’s why Rick Beato, classically trained musician and former professor, developed Nuryl app. It’s a music app designed to boost baby’s cognitive development. So smart music really does qual a smart baby. When my daughters were very small I read a lot about brain development. At that time there was a children’s…

    What Next? My New Travel Goals #travel

    September 6, 2016 /

    It hit me on the flight back from Martin County, Florida this summer. As accomplished as I feel when I travel, and meet a new challenge and tick something off my list, I sometimes feel a bit directionless afterwards. Do you know the feeling I mean? Kayaking, paddle boarding, surfing, turtle nesting tours…On this one particular trip I did so many awesome activities that I had to stop and ask myself what next? What haven’t I done on a trip? Where haven’t I been? What are my new travel goals? Sitting there on the plane, exhausted from surfing lessons earlier that day, I quickly thought of zip lining. That’s the next thing,…

    Ontario Pioneer Camp Blogger Weekend #PioneerCamp16

    July 13, 2016 /

    My kids have been campers for years. For the past few years I have heard great things about Ontario Pioneer Camp. But until recently we had no experience with the camp ourselves. That changed last month when we drove to Huntsville in the stunning Muskoka area of Ontario and took part in Ontario Pioneer Camp Blogger’s Weekend. What a fun weekend it was! Camp is a big investment. It’s an investment in your child. It’s also an investment in you as a parent. BUT, before you book any camp you need to know what to expect. Camp is one of those rites of passage that relies on Word of Mom. How…
