Going back to school and celebrating the first day of KINDERGARTEN for Ethan, and Grade 3 for Lauren. We started off the day with a special breakfast with a few simple decorations.

It’s back to school time! This year we celebrated the first day of grade ONE with a fun breakfast! Apple crumble muffins, apple-cinnamon cheerios and fruit made for an easy breakfast we could enjoy together before heading off to school!

This was such a fun summer project to work on together! A summery, colourful lemonade stand that we built (from Lauren’s design of course) that we can use again and again!

sharing all of the details from our little back to school breakfast to celebrate Lauren starting kindergarten! I love starting new traditions and this might be one of my favourites so far!

KINDERGARTEN here we come! Lauren’s first day of kindergarten is this week and she is so EXCITED! Last week, we had a fun shopping day picking out a few new outfits, new shoes and got all of her school supplies. Here are all of our favourites this year, and a few photos of Lauren on her first day!

our second annual peach picking adventure is in the books! This year, Lauren decided we should make peach pie with our peaches so we got to work - it turned out absolutely delicious!

who doesn’t love a little tea party! I think that’s one thing that my daughter and I have in common, so we had fun planning this special little party together, and sharing some sweet treats and memories as well! This might just have to become an annual event!

a little backyard summer fiesta to add a little fun theme night for the kids! We had tacos, mexican sodas, tortilla chips and quacamole, margaritas and baked churros for dessert! I strung a DIY papel picado banner between the garden lights with a colourful tassle garland, and decorated a picnic table with mini pinatas, painted cactus rocks, and terracotta pots!
