Just over here tryinโ€™ to sum up the past few months with a handful of pics & a short caption like: ๐Ÿซ 

Hi!! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Itโ€™s been a minute. Anyone else got baggage?! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Long story short, I do believe we lived a lifetime since the start of summer. This was THE most challenging (and rewarding!) few months of LIFE โ€” simultae!! ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฉ

Tons of sacrifices, pivots, adjustments, milestones, mileage, and core memories were made โ€” to. The. MAX!! It nearly broke me numerous times โ€” yet I somehow managed to channel my inner bamboo and bend without (fully) snapping haha! Proud of my fam is an understatement. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿคฏ

Not only did we survive, weโ€™re fully alive โ€” and thriving in a really great place (physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually). Finally. Thank Heavens!! More so, thanks to our ride-or-flyโ€™s (who helped always, in all ways): the greatest friends and fam on the planet โ€” you know who you are. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’

My family and I have been on an intense journey since April 2023, itโ€™s just now feeling like weโ€™re on the upswing out of the trenches. I donโ€™t always share details, but believe you me, this past year & a half is one for the BOOKS!! Perhaps one day Iโ€™ll elaborate. ๐Ÿ“š

Looking forward to getting back in a groove of creating, sharing, and (hopefully) inspiring โ€” like you know I love to do. Iโ€™ve learned SO much throughout this experience โ€” needs to spill the tea, I do! (Said like Yoda haha!!) ๐Ÿ˜˜โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿฟ

Until then, if you made it this far, please enjoy a micro-selection of pics from the 1,000+ photos I took since July. Lol!! ๐Ÿค“

All the love from my family and I, to YOU!! Thanks for sticking around . . . Hereโ€™s to a new chapter, or, new book, or โ€” shooooot โ€” a whole new library it seems!! Letโ€™s DO this!! โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ

Helloooo Summer!! The first two weeks of our fave season were lit!! โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

The sunshine came back after a couple weeks of rain, and we got up to a ton of fun โ€” including Spanish + Homeschool lessons, extracurricular classes for the kiddos, explorations around Playa, delicious meals out (& in!), pool play, play dates, family walks, beach club festivities, movie nights, and heaps of quality time together. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ž

The kiddos and I also safely made it through Hurricane Beryl โ€” our first tropical storm here โ€” and weโ€™re beyond grateful it was gentle on us. The aftermath of the storm was present all around, it sure was an experience to witness โ€” from the preparations by locals beforehand to the cleanup afterwards โ€” just, wow!! ๐Ÿคฏ๐ŸŒ€๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Only a handful of days left to go before we head back North to Can-Can land! Gonna soak this all up as much as we can in the meantime. Pura vida, amigos! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ’žโœŒ๏ธ

Farewell to the last bit of spring! ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒป

We closed out this beautiful season with more exploring around Playa, discovered a market full of local fruits and veggies, went swimming, did homeschool + Spanish lessons, extracurricular classes for the kiddos (+ solo lunch dates for Mama haha!), Jungle Kids Club play, family walks, a visit to the Azul Cenote, checked out neighbouring communities, cafรฉ dates, Fatherโ€™s Day, played games, had movie nights, cooked, cleaned, cabbed, annnnd got caught in the rain! Soooo much rain these past couple weeks lol!! ๐ŸŒฆ๏ธโ˜”๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ

Everything has become extra lush and green with the amount of rain weโ€™ve had though, it sure is purdy. It seems as if weโ€™ve switched weather with our peeps up north, soooo - weโ€™ll be back soon for summerrrr!! Gotta chase that sun haha!! ๐Ÿ˜Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ

Hope everyoneโ€™s spring was splendid. Wishing for all a most super duper summer 2024!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Itโ€™s been a minute! Hereโ€™s a little wrap up of the past couple for the memory bank. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ

We homeschooled & practiced Espaรฑol erryday, had pool & cafรฉ dates, family walks, chores, fabulous lunches & dinners out, explored around the community, went to the jungle kids club, self-cared, played board games, had movie nights, went to a private beach club, and took a day trip to Cozumel via ferry where we explored half the island in an afternoon! Phew! Lol!! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿซ 

The kiddos also started classes at a private school for Tae Kwon Do & Ballet this past week. So grateful to be welcomed into this incredible community here!! ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅ‹๐Ÿฉฐ

When we say this place keeps getting better and better, we arenโ€™t kidding. PDC sure is one of the most beautiful spots on the planet weโ€™ve ever seen! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ž

Have you ever been? Would love to know how you like it if so! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

How do we sum up the last couple weeks in Playa? One word: SUNSHINE!! โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

Seriously, all this consistent daily sun is something weโ€™ve literally never experienced for such long durations in all our lives, it truly makes a world of wonders. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ž

With loads of vitamin D, a trip to our local Walmart (which may not seem all that fun, but it is when they have magnetized ramps for the carts and itโ€™s your kidโ€™s first time lol!), epic dinners out, play time at the Jungle Kids Club, homeschooling, Spanish lessons, cafรฉ dates, pool play, exploring, quality time with friends + family, movie nights, and reading (including our new book by our fave Nature School Teacher turned Author, Mrs. Donna!), itโ€™s been another jam-packed bunch of days. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Itโ€™s not all sunshine and rainbows when embarking on such a massive adventure, and even though challenges continue to present themselves (some new, and some in familiar ways), at the very least we sure are lucky to be in such a beautiful place. ๐ŸŒดโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ

Pura vida, amigos! Letโ€™s get out there and live our bests lives! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

Catching up on the past couple weeks that were full of exploring beautiful PDC, Mexico! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ

๐Ÿ“šWe finally made it to one of the local libraries, which was super cool as they have quite the collection including a kidโ€™s room, and loads of childrenโ€™s books โ€” some in English too!

๐Ÿ”ญWe also went on a field trip to the PDC Planetario (Planetarium) where we had a private tour of the facilities, including the observation tower where we observed the sun up close, the giant dome to watch some space films, and a community Lego building afterwards! We learned SO much!!

๐Ÿ—บ๏ธAnd of course we took time to explore around town, hit up the beach, and tried some new food spots โ€” all of which we LOVED!!

๐Ÿ˜Add in a successful visit to the Dentist for routine cleanings, play dates with friends, homeschooling fun, Spanish lessons, family movie nights, plenty of pool dates, and Motherโ€™s Day โ€” and you get a lucky bunch of Canadians in Playa lol!

๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝGrateful to be here in this beautiful location, surrounded by the best people, complete with the most perfect weather. Bienvenida a Paradise!!

Wishing everyone a most wonder-full week ahead! โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

The past couple weeks, in a nutshell ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿฅœ๐Ÿš

Weโ€™ve been laying low lately, focusing on our studies, and taking time to turn inward. Lots going on behind the scenes here! ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿคช

We always take time to play though - and of course hit up the pool, ate a ton of good food, and spent quality time together as a family. ๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ’ž

A highlight was getting to visit Puerto Aventuras, where we visited with friends whom I (Mama K) hadnโ€™t seen in over 20+ years - and we had the BEST time!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฌ

Looking forward to whatโ€™s about to unfold in the coming weeks here. Settling into the ashes, claiming back the spark and preparing to rise - Phoenix styles. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ

Sending infinite love and light to all who could use it right meow - you GOT this - eye sea yew!! ๐Ÿ‘€๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿฅฐ

We officially made it back to Playaaaa!! We love it here SO much, we just couldnโ€™t wait to return โ€” and this first week did not disappoint! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’ž

From sunny dips in the pool, to Spanish lessons, allllll the amazing foods, playing with friends, new homeschool tools, the solar eclipse (+ DJโ€™s impromptu hair cut!), a beach day, exploring around town, a solo afternoon out for mama, and a birthday celebration w/ our beautiful community โ€” itโ€™s definitely been a week to remember forever! ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’–

It seems a common goal that most people strive for is to live a happy, healthy, abundant life โ€” and no matter how that looks for you, I believe that building a life you donโ€™t need a vacation from is a steadfast way to get there. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

It isnโ€™t always easy, yet is sure as Heaven is WORTH IT!! Here we are, figuring things out as we grow, and adjusting the sails accordingly. Done is better than perfect. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

Wishing for everyone a most wonderful week ahead. Letโ€™s DO this, Amigos!! ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ

Second week of spring / our last week in Ontario, Canada before takeoff. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ

โ€˜Twas a most excellent week indeed, as we made our way back to the city to stay with Familia and celebrate Dadaโ€™s birthday, visited with friends, had Fam Jam brunches + lunches + dinners + Easter festivities, stayed at a fancy hotel w/ Mami, visited the Dundurn Castle Heritage Museum, practiced Espaรฑol, and gathered things from alllll the places in prep for our next trip ahead. ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’ž

Phew! Lol!! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Feels like we traveled the world in just that one week alone. Lots on the go, and I must admit this Mama is spenttttt. Haha!! Super stoked to anchor back in and ground down in Playa once again!! ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’–

So long, for meow, Canada. Itโ€™s been a slice and then some. Weโ€™ll see ya when youโ€™re solid in the double digits again. And thank you to all our fam and friends for making the past few weeks a trip to remember forever. Core memories: activated!! ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Wishing everyone a most wonderful weekend ahead! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Happy first week of spring from the County! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐ŸŒท (though it still feels like winter lol!!) ๐Ÿฅถ

Weโ€™ve been living (& loving!) the cottage life here in PEC, which is right down the road from where we used to live. Activating alllll the mems!! ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ž

Complete with good olโ€™ fashioned activities (like Jenga, Viewfinders, and a Barrel of Monkeys!), to watching the snow fall on the lake amidst glorious sunrises and sunsets, to achieving our 100-day streak learning Spanish on DuoLingo โ€” weโ€™re truly enjoying ourselves (& all the great food along the way, too)! ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’š

One more week to grow before we take off on our next adventure. Making the most of it, and beyond grateful for all these simply beautiful moments. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Hope everyone is well! Sending loads of love from our family to you and yours. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

Happy last full day of winter, friends!! Soooo excited for the spring equinox tomorrow โ€” itโ€™s like the true new year, in my humble opinion. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŒฑ

We spent the last week of winter here in our homeland of Ontario, Canada, and what a week itโ€™s been so far! ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

It began with a great travel day from PDC ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ, complete with sleepovers at our Fam Jamโ€™s, a stop at our storage unit, visits and a dinner out with our crew, plus what feels like a gazillion appointments in between. ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ™ƒ

Since then weโ€™ve been livinโ€™ the cottage life in our olโ€™ stompinโ€™ grounds of PEC โ€” where weโ€™ve been joyously revisiting and reconnecting with some of our fave local places and people as we tackle a bunch more things on our get-to-do list! Soooo nice. ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’ž

Though weโ€™ve only been gone a few short months, itโ€™s long enough for us to appreciate everything here *that* much more. Just when you think you couldnโ€™t possibly love your hometown more than you did before, you do! Haha!! The warm welcomes weโ€™re receiving as we make our rounds have warmed our hearts more than we can say. Quinte West is still the best!! ๐Ÿฅฒ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’˜

We definitely didnโ€™t bring back the sunshine as promised, though the weather has been okay โ€” and the kidโ€™s trip was made when it snowed (& hailed, rained, and the sun came out all within 30mins time haha!!). Happy campers all around! ๐Ÿฅถ๐ŸŒจ๏ธโ„๏ธ

Willing for everyone a most beautiful spring equinox tomorrow and beyond. May the rebirth of this changing season bring with it an abundance of new life, love, laughter and lessons for all! ๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒท

Loads of pool time, relaxing, exploring, studying, playing, a pet-beetle adoption, annnd a trip to the circus! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

The kiddos treated us to a rooftop sunset show this evening to commemorate one more sleep until we make our way to Canada tomorrow. Never a dull moment here, folks! Haha!! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Weโ€™ll see you soon, fellow northerners. You bet weโ€™ll be bringing the sunshine too! โ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ
