Here’s how I planned the perfect day for the whole family

Over the last decade-ish since living in Toronto, and subsequently Ottawa again, my immediate family has planned a yearly trip to Mont-Tremblant. Almost always in July or August, I was able to attend once or twice at most because I was booked or otherwise busy. This time centered around my brother Alex’s birthday mid August, this year we all started to talk about it VERY early and I committed to not booking anything for those few days so that I could attend the whole thing.

Spending time with niece, nephew, brother, sister-in-law, and #MamaSue has been a necessity in my life this year, and something I really have come to appreciate in an entirely new way. In a fabulous twist, we decided to switch up the destination (see you next year Mont-Tremblant. PS, call me and let’s collab) – and I wanted to share how I planned the PERFECT day for the whole family.

Canada’s Wonderland is safely re-opening and with that comes another year of Julio & I joining the #WonderCrew. So get ready for many more rollercoaster photos, BTS moments, food and so much laughter in the sun.

Life’s A Rollercoaster Ride Right Now, So Might As Well Enjoy a Few!

While the world seems to be adjusting to the new normal, I recently got some good news that I wanted to share with you all. Amid video calls with friends over coffee or wine, and the social distancing that I am actively a part of for the time being, there is a lot to look forward to as well. The summer months will hopefully see us out in the sun reminded to celebrate the beauty of being together and remind us to never take anything for granted.

In the meantime, in lieu of another year as a part of the #WonderCrew at Canada’s Wonderland, I wanted to share some fun things to enjoy at home with the kids or someone special to get you excited for when the park opens!

Long Weekend Vibes

Now that I’ve been to Canada’s Wonderland for Media Day (click here to watch the highlights on our Instagram account), I’m already trying to sort out exactly how many visits I can get in this season with my Gold Season Pass to the park. The May long weekend has always been one that I find myself spending outside as much as possible. So from the gardening I plan on doing, to visiting the park for their long weekend fireworks spectacular, I wanted to share some of my long weekend #vibes to inspire your own!
