Finally A Ski Day!

Ski resorts here in Ontario were closed during the lockdown. Lockdown was lifted in some cities just last week!

If you are looking to hit the slopes though, make sure you get your tickets in advance! They are running at a lower capacity and selling out tickets fast!

Last season we got a lot of practice! The kids were soo familiar with everything this year and enjoyed every minute!

We started on the magic carpet when we first arrived, then quickly moved on to the lift. 

Mr K was on his own, going up the lift and down the hills over and over on his own! Mr M wanted to go on his own too! He's still too young but he was eager to prove himself!

Mama didn't do so bad either, ha!

We Skied from 10-4! We stopped to grab lunch around 1pm. You could bring food and eat in your car too. They had some food trucks set up but the lines were long.  We just took a little break and drove out to get lunch, it was a nice little break for the kids too. 

It was the perfect weather on Saturday not too cold and barely any wind. It even snowed a bit and it was soo pretty!

We bought all our gear last year, everything still fit the kids which was great. 

The kids jackets and snowpants are from Mountain Warehouse.

My jacket is from Marshalls Canada of course ha! It’s Sketchers jacket. 

Our helmets and kids ski goggles and my ski pants are from Amazon (Click my here to see my Amazon Store) 

Even our ski neckwarmer/ face mask came in handy since you need to wear a mask while standing in any line ups.  

Have you been skiing or snowboarding this season??

Are Ski resorts open where you live?

Family vacation February 2020

 I just realized that I didn't blog our last vacation! The reason? Well we came back just weeks before the pandemic hit in Canada! So it must have slipped my mind!

This vacation was a family wedding vacation! I am soo happy we had all that time with family now looking back. Who would have thought the year ahead would have been this!

Last February we went to Cuba! Pullman Cayo Coco

We were up at 3:30 AM to get to our 6am Flight!

The kids love this part of vacations (moms not so much ha!) waking up and getting in the car when it's dark to travel to the airport!

We got a valet car service, where we went and picked up a driver. He then got in our car and drove us to the front doors of the airport. We got out and he left to park our car! (on the way back home we texted the car service and they met us right outside) Best service especially with kids!

I've learned over the years to travel with backpacks! Check in the big luggage and go on the plane as handsfree as you can! We each had a backpack. In each of our backpacks I put, 1 outfit, 1 bathing suit, snacks of course, phones/ipads. and my makeup ha! Because if for some reason a luggage was delayed, We would all have a little bit to get by!

Once at the destination, it's all fun! No rules! ha! All inclusive vacations are pretty straight forward. 

Eat, Drink,Beach,Eat,Drink,Pool,Eat, Drink, Dance, Eat,Drink, Sleep. Ha!

So lets's just tell the rest of the story in beautiful pictures! One day we will all get to travel and see the world again! As long as we are all healthy and safe, that is always priority!

The kids went swimming with the Dolphins! 

The kids had a blast on the beach

Fun music nights!

We had a few trips planned for this year that have been cancelled! Disney and Hawaii! Not sure when we will travel again but we can’t wait to travel again when it’s safe! 

Are you planning your next trip!?
