Family Day Long Weekend

For our family day weekend and my husbands birthday weekend we spent a night at Niagara Falls.

We booked a beautiful suite with an amazing view! It was so nice to wake up to.
I crack up at this pic. I was so excited because I was winning! I won $200 bucks! I wanted to play for longer but I was falling asleep! Not a good gambler haha! But winning some money back felt great.
Today we decided to shop in the USA. I went to DSW (my favorite shoe store) and bought these.
Very comfortable. Love them.

We had soo much fun. Especially getting lost twice in Buffalo. I told my husband to follow Ontario license plates Ha! they were not going where we thought they were. But we had so much fun driving around. (and he has learned not to take directions from me haha!)

Happy Family Day long weekend!!!

A Friends Wedding.

A good friend of mine got married yesterday!
(I bought my dress at H & M and it was soo comfy! I didn't end up wearing the shoes, they were killing just standing there)

My friend and I worked together years ago and when we met we just clicked! She is such a nice fun girl and I'm soo happy for her.

Her wedding was beautiful and so much fun.


It was a Portuguese wedding and the food was sooo good! Lets just say there was NO watching what you eat because they had dish after dish and then a midnight seafood and dessert table that was to die for!
And I won the beautiful center piece!!
Today is a errand running, home cleaning, Christmas decorating and working on the side biz kinda Sunday ahah! It's cold and snowy today!

Hope you all are enjoying your Sunday!

Weekend of Fun and Shopping

Last night we went out for a friends birthday. My sister and little cousin came out too. We went to The Drake Hotel on Queen Street (in Toronto) And boy was it a fun night! I honestly can't remember when I had that much fun!! Partying with my sister and 19 year old cousin was exactly what I needed this weekend. The 3 of us had such a blast!!!

This weekend I also started my Fall shopping. I found some great deals on these boots! Can't wait to put together some outfits for the cooler weather.
Running around all weekend meant eating out all weekend too! I did try and choose healthier choices but still eating fast food is never a good choice.

So tonight I made sure to cook at home. I made baked spicy chicken with wedges and brussel sprouts!
Last weeks goal of working out 3 times a week will be achieved today ahah! Cause I'm off to go workout for an hour while I watch the VMA awards!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Second Workout of the Week

Lots of pictures going on here today :) Tonight my sister and I went for a jog. The air is cooler and its much more comfortable. We jogged/walked through a park for an hour. The one thing I like about the parks are the hills, you really feel it in the Butt! haha!


Since the weather is changing, it's getting darker a littler earlier. So during our run through the park it was a little dark. We were hearing all different types of noises and we know there are coyotes in this park too. So we pretty much freaked each other out and starting running for our lives out of the wooded area. At one point I spotted a dog far away and said to my sister COYOTE! She jumped and almost fell to the floor (haha) then noticed it was a dog. She wasn't impressed by that.
I love the summer, but I also loveeee the FALL!
And anything pumpkin pie!

Since Fall is just around the corner, it means Fall shopping must begin! I have my eye on these items.

I'm finally going to get myself a pair of UGGS . I have a gift certificate to SoftMoc so I'm excited to use it this weekend! Whoohoo!

Have you begun Fall shopping???

The Flu...Again! But still galavanted around the city ;)

So I got the flu.. AGAIN just had it two weeks ago and now its back worse than it was and so far longer... I had a busy weekend, my sister stayed over for the weekend cause the guys took a trip to Montreal, so no way I was going to let this flu ruin my weekend!.... I kept going this weekend with Tylenol cold and flu tabs every 4 hours, it helped me stay up and about but boyyyyyy am I feeling the drain right now ;(... I hope I didnt make things worse. A friend of mine told me to eat lots of Oranges, so I went and bought lots. I'll be eating two right now, then I'm just going to stay stuck on this couch the rest of the evening.

Overall the weekend was a success. My sister and I shopped lots. I got some amazing deals ;) Like I mentioned before I am not a shopaholic, I do love to shop but I'm one of those shoppers that go shop for "just what I need" type things... But this weekend we had it planned that we would just have fun and shop and buy whatever we liked (within our budget of course) ;)... So I set my mind to it and I did great. I bought some spring and summer clothing and 3 pairs of summer shoes and a pair of winter boots.... didn't neeeeed any of them, but sooo happy I have them, I am sure I will put it all to gooood use!.... I have to show you the great deals I got. Winners had a clearance sale and I got these boots for $9.00! I know! reg $70 and I got these cute black pumps for 3.00!!!!!!! Reg $50. Amazing HUH. I got these other shoes as well, regular prices but just had to get them for summer time ;).




I also bought this hair mask, i totally recommend. A couple years ago I had bleach Blonde hair, and when I dyed it to brown it basically all fried off, (thats another story, it was very devastating) LOL but I'm all good now, nice and natural ... but this Hair mask Protein RX is what really helped me get my healthy hair back, i used it for about 6 months at the time while growing my hair and it really helped. So I decided to buy it again just to use about every 2 weeks to keep my hair nice and strong. You can get this at Sephora, it's amazing.



We also did our weigh in for the $300 weightloss challenge, Starts today...I'll write about that tomorrow. ;)
