Big milestone for us and our daughter, Lexi 🤍

Lexi turned 40 at the end of January, marking 40 years of us being parents. We are so incredibly proud of the woman she’s become and absolutely loving watching her as a mother.

Four decades of parenthood… how did that happen?!

We celebrated with a little fun in the sun (in January!) and couldn’t resist sharing this photo of the original five of our family.

What a journey. What a joy. ☀️✨

Here is a brief summary of the monthly stats for the month of January. If you would like to see a more detailed summary, reach out!

Looks like Rosemarie & Tom picked up a little seasonal work at the North Pole 🎄
Wishing everyone a cozy, joyful Christmas!

A gentle turning of the season and the return of the light.
Here’s to brighter days ahead.

We are over the moon to announce the arrival of our sweet granddaughter, Claudia Rosemarie, born at 8am on Nov. 1st.

Proud doesn’t begin to describe how we feel watching Lexi and Jason become such wonderful new parents. 💗

Last weekend, we spent the day visiting a couple of local pumpkin patches with the whole family. It was the perfect fall outing with crisp air, colourful leaves, and plenty of pumpkins to choose from.

Everyone had a great time wandering through the fields and picking out their favourites. We even brought a few home to carve, and can’t wait to turn them into jack-o’-lanterns as Halloween gets closer!

There’s just something about a pumpkin patch that makes autumn feel complete: cozy sweaters, warm drinks, and time spent together. 

On the holiday Monday, we spent the day with Lexi, Rhea, and our two grandsons exploring the Saanich Fair.

We checked out the animals, wandered the market, hit up the kid zone, played bingo (and won! ), and, of course, enjoyed some tasty carnival food.

Such a hoot of a day!

As we head toward fall (yes, it is coming soon), here are some home care tips for you.
