Notre jardin s’en vient pas mal bien, même qu’on s’en occupe pas beaucoup vu qu’on étaient à White Lake (parc provincial). Ce soir aussitôt revenuent moi & Emeraude coururent pour le jardin avant même d’avoir dépaqueter la van lol. Les photos ci-dessous sont [Read more]
Will be working on my article shortly but for now just had to make a quick post. Our day was GREAT. Before heading out we went by Grandpapa’s house to ask him one more time if he wanted to come along (he had declined earlier in the morning) and we were really happy when he [Read more]
White Lake, Ontario Lloyd & Brady were great sports, really getting into the exploration when Emeraude asked them for help catching tadpoles, leaches and other aquatic friends. Between the three of them, they found 4 leachs, a few dozen tadpoles, what we believed to be the larvae of a dragonfly [Read more]
Thunder Bay area parks offer free summer programs by Karina Hunter Looking for something to do with the kids on weekends that won’t break the bank? There are many provincial parks in the Thunder Bay region, which offer free programs for children and families throughout the summer. [Read more]
I am so lucky to have kids that don’t have to be pressured into having fun outdoors, it comes to them naturally. Lloyd has always enjoyed fishing and in fact is the one who has re-taught me as an adult, how to put a worm on a hook and handle minnows, and which lures are [Read more]

Emeraude & I were thrilled to learn that the Manitouwadge Family Place-Best Start Hub would be continuing there Tuesday & Thursday morning drop-ins through July. We love going to drop-in where there is usually craft, snack and circle time at each drop in. Thursday, July 9th when we attended [Read more]
EEEK… Emeraude has a dentist appointment this morning, not something I am looking forward to inspite of the fact that she likes the dentist… Maybe it’s because she has until now liked the dentist and I am worried this morning’s appointment may change that. I was relieved [Read more]
Late night noises in Manitouwadge by Karina Hunter Residents of Manitouwadge will be privy to an uninvited auditory performance. As July ends, residents may need to close their windows at night to keep out the increasingly raucous, high pitched sound of croaking frogs that make their home on [Read more]
Emeraude’s beautiful princess bed broke this week. I’m not sure if it was brother leaning in to give her a kiss and the bed couldn’t handle his weight or the dog (I don’t think it could’ve been the latter as she doesn’t weigh that much more than Emeraude). In [Read more]
Emeraude has been attending the Manitouwadge Nursery School since December and in that time, her teacher Nikki has not ceased to impress with the quality and educational value of her crafts. This one was no different… The dangers of the sun were never so obvious as when your child pulls [Read more]
Our birdfeeder in the front yard has become a rather popular spot for the birds on the street lol. In spite of the crows and ravens liking it, the little birds still come freequently as well. It has been raining often lately and so I pulled it closer to the house (front living room window) [Read more]
