Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we wanted to connect more deeply with the place we now call home. We hiked the trails around Lake Helen Mackenzie and Battleship Lake, which rest on the traditional lands of the Kwakwaka’wakw Peoples, including the Wei Wai K*m First Nation, within the Comox Valley region of Strathcona Provincial Park. 🧡

We honour the children who never came home, the Survivors, and the families impacted by residential schools. Every step on this land is a reminder of the deep history and resilience of Indigenous Peoples. 🧡

Perseverance 12km trail race was great today! Love the rain, the downhill and everyone who was out on the course cheering us on and making sure we were going the right way!

It was so wonderful that my mom was able to be here to cheer me in and bring Addy with her!! Can’t wait until the next one 🤙🤙

Perseverance 12km trail run! (More like 13.8 based off my watch 😂)

Beautiful rainy day to hit the trails. The elevation nearly killed me around km 5-6 but the downhill was sooo much fun! 🤩

36!! 🥳🥳🥳

Had a beautiful birthday celebrating with a few of my favourite people in one of my favourite places this past weekend! I’m excited for what this year will bring and thankful I get the opportunity to have seen another birthday roll through.

Had an incredibly couple days hiking through the forest and mountains with some wonderful women who also love some type 2 fun. Many laughs were had despite the not so great weather!

With weather being a little wetter than expected we decided to change our trip plan and now we have a reason to go back and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF (ourselves) 😂… quick comment what movie that is from!

On this day last year after 8 days on the road and driving over 5700km we were waking up at our final destination of our west to east trek of our across Canada road trip!

Beautiful East Coast Sunrise 🌅

Thanksgiving weekend we went to and it didn't disappoint!

The kids had a blast and LOVED the corn maze!
It was fun walking around and watching the kids pick out their own pumpkins!

Have you been to a pumpkin patch? What's your favourite part?

Life has been differently lately.
It feels like it's...
School drop off, filling time, school pickup, after school activities.
Rinse and repeat.

Now that it's just me and these 2 the majority of the day, it's been fun seeing how they're taking on their new roles as well.. Addy is now the "oldest" and guiding Wilder on our adventures and Wilders just growing up so fast, keeping up right along with her.

Although Noah's loving school, has an amazing teacher and gets outside a ton (something I think is so amazing and helped in the decision in actually signing him up for school) I still feel like a part of me is missing everyday.

I've been quiet on here adjusting and figuring out the new daily dynamic and what to do to fill our days. I miss being creative and making videos, or creating with my hands but at the same time I've been so tired from a new daily schedule that when push comes to shove the IG world tends to be put on pause. But I'm hoping to figure out a way to get back on track with everything. ♥️

Anyway I hope you're doing well! I'm still here, we're still getting outside and going on adventures!

How did you adjust when your first kiddo went to school??
