Fat Bike Race in Summerside, PEI was a lot of fun for the whole family!

We loaded up the canoe and headed off to an uninhabited island in the Northumberland Strait for a weekend of family fun, sand and adventure!

Going on a cross-Florida bike trip with four kids taught us that it is more about the journey than about the destination.

Taking time to explore is the best part of travelling. The sand, rocks, sun and trees around the Bay of Fundy were amazing.

Helmets are essential for biking, but it was hard to find a good-quality helmet for little heads. We love our Giro Scamp bike helmet and so does our little one!

Whether for hiking, biking or trips to the zoo, this child-carrier backpack has been a wonderful way to make adventuring with our little ones easier!

We have been using these lightweight, absorbent, multi-use towels for a year now and we love them! 

When it is too cold for snow play outside, bring the snow indoors! Add some colour and watch the creating begin! This is our family’s favorite way to have snow play, INDOORS!

Playing board games together as a family can create wonderful memories. But is there any games that are actually fun for the whole family? There is! Here is a list of a few of our favorites!

Contentment is a state of mind, not a state of circumstances. No matter what our circumstances, if we don't choose to be content, we will always strive for more. We will always live in the future, and not enjoy the present. Life is a gift to enjoy, right now!

Our family is kicking the school year off by exploring the Creation Story in the Bible, complete with crafts and lots of nature activities!

We have had a busy summer working at a Bible Camp on the red shores of Prince Edward Island!

Zebras aren't the only ones who hide...

The best part of being able to travel is to get to know new people. Making new friends into old friends. 

With the new skin on the qajaq, Tristan was finally able to test it in the open water! Part 4 of the Kayak build!

Now the Kayak is ready for the combing to be sewn on, and the fabric skin coated in a waterproof polyurethane. But something happens in a turn for the worst! Part 3 of the Greenland Kayak build!

After the frame was built, it was time to cover it in fabric, sewing it up by hand in the traditional way! This is Part 2 of the build!

Tristan had the opportunity to build a traditional style Greenland Kayak from beginning to end! This is Part 1 of the build!

How do you view life? Are you just trying to survive another day, or do you see life as an adventure waiting to be had?

I hear myself saying, “I want our family to live more simple. But is living more simple really more simple?

Wood Sorrel is a tasty, tangy snack that you can find growing all around you!

This is a super easy, cheap, and fast to make Laundry Detergent Recipe! I have been using for a long time now, and it works great!

This crunchy granola recipe is easy and fast to make, and tastes great with yogurt and fruit, on its own with warm milk, or even as a crunchy topping on muffins! When Tristan first tried this granola with yogurt, he said, “This is what I have been missing all these years? It’s so good!”

This jelly made from wild violet flowers has a wonderful taste, sweet and distinct, with a beautiful pink colour!

I am always on the search for healthy snacks for my family. This No-Bake Protein Energy Bites recipe adds lots of protein and energy rich ingredients to our day in a bite size. It is great for hiking, biking, or a quick pick-me-up.

Bannock. It is one of those foods that bring back happy memories of my childhood days at summer camp, and I am thrilled to get to share it with my own children.
