Good afternoon everyone! Tomorrow marks two years since we moved into our beautiful home in Auburn Bay… It’s been fairly easy acclimating to the Alberta way of life since we moved our home from Vancouver. I love our neighbourhood, neighbours and friends we’ve developed over the past couple of years, and I’m looking forward to [...]

Hi guys… Thanks for popping in on this fine Wednesday. I thought I’d take a few minutes to write about something that has been bothering me for quite a while. First of all, I just want to say, DO NOT READ INTO THIS POST as anything more than an attempt by me to talk about [...]
