Get Through the Start of the School Year Feeling Calm and Cool with Swiss Natural aHead Cognitive Support and Memory

July 25, 2017 by Kathryn 10 Comments

There are a lot of jokes about the many struggles of dealing with “mom brain,” but when the back-to-school season rolls around, the simple truth is that the stress and busy days of preparing for a new school year can make it feel impossible to remember even the simplest tasks!

It’s those days that I’ve found myself putting my half-full coffee cup in the cupboard, packing crayons in the fridge or, on one harrowing occasion, even leaving my purse behind at a store! Needless to say, that notorious mom forgetfulness isn’t always a laughing matter to me.

Show Off Your Favourite Moments with CanvasPop.com Framed Prints-Giveaway

November 16, 2015 by Kathryn 136 Comments

My boys and I have been lucky enough to enjoy some pretty amazing vacations together, and I absolutely love looking back at the pictures and remembering all the fun we’ve had. I’ve started a tradition of picking one favourite photo from each vacation and having it printed and framed to hang on the wall so that I can relive the memories every day. So when CanvasPop contacted me about reviewing its beautiful 16×20 framed prints, I was thrilled.

CanvasPop.com specializes in customized canvas prints and framed art prints. The company’s quick service and attention to detail make it a great option for anyone that wants to showcase special moments in a gorgeous way. I chose one of my favourite pictures of the boys at the Mexico resort we’d visited in January and waited eagerly for my picture to arrive.

Take Dad On A Trip Down Memory Lane this Father’s Day with OxiClean

June 17, 2015 by Kathryn 23 Comments

I’ve always had a hard time shopping for my dad. He never requests a specific gift and being over eighty, he seems to have everything he wants already. To top it off, his reaction to any gift is pretty mellow so even when I’m sure I’ve found something that he’ll love, it’s hard to know whether he really liked my choice or not! That’s why this year, instead of buying something new, I’ll be taking a tip from Church & Dwight and sticking to something I know my dad will love. By sprucing up his most prized possessions to make them as good as new, I can be sure he’ll have a happy Father’s Day!

Wondering how to make that happen? Try refreshing dad’s favourite things from the good ol’ days. This means restoring his lucky baseball cap or the colours on his old sports team jersey to bring him back to that championship game. Or try cleaning up his favourite childhood toy and let the memories pour in.

Father’s Day Memories of Learning to Drive with Dad and Ford Canada-Giveaway

June 12, 2014 by Kathryn 183 Comments

Growing up in small-town Saskatchewan, one of my earliest memories was driving down gravel roads in my dad’s old Ford truck. He had an acreage on the edge of the Qu’Appelle valley and there were times we’d go driving on roads that were little more than tracks in the grass. On the top of the valley, Dad used to occasionally let me, the oldest child, sit and steer the truck across his property. I started out sitting in his lap and then, as I got older, was eventually allowed to drive on the acreage roads myself, with Dad beside me keeping a watchful eye on me!

Just like me, Zackary has always loved being behind the wheel!

For many children in Saskatchewan, those times spent out with our fathers were our first driving lessons, often started a decade before we would be eligible to actually take driving lessons and get that coveted Learner’s License. Any child whose parents owned a farm or acreage had so much open private property that it just made sense to take advantage of it. And those bonding moments with my dad driving around in that old Ford truck remain some of my favourite memories of time spent with him to this day. [Read more…]

grade one kat kathryn lavallee
My oldest son graduates from Grade One in a few weeks, so stumbling on this picture of me in Grade One today was a bit of a coincidence! I remember my mom being very annoyed that I crashed my bike and scraped my face the day before picture day! (Once she was sure I was okay, that is!)

If you have a Wordless Wednesday post, please link it up below; I’d love to check it out! [Read more…]
