Chase was born in September of 2011 and spoils his mother by doing unheard-of things like sleeping through the night and smiling almost constantly! They live in Swift Currant, Saskatchewan, Canada. Elizabeth is currently studying business at the University of Regina and when she’s not hitting the books or playing with her son, she can usually be found playing basketball with the Great Plains Sundogs university team or galloping across the prairies on her horse Star Gazer. Her life will be getting even busier with the upcoming birth of her second son!

Brenna Bear is a full-time nurse and busy mother of three adorable little girls and a newborn baby boy.  Anna, who was born in 2007, is a typical princess who enjoys ballet, books and mimicking the fashion sense of her trendy mother.  Isabelle, born in 2010, is the rambunctious one who keeps mom on her toes but also loves learning and music. Brenna is a registered nurse and in her free time, she and her family enjoy a healthy lifestyle filled with outdoor activities and cooking nutritious meals together, enjoyed under a vibrant Saskatchewan sunset whenever possible.
