Distance Challenge

Last weekend was one eventful weekend and I’m so super proud of the girls not only they helped raise funds for a good cause but they also swam for 2 continuous hours.

Jennah swam 3250m and Zeenah 2500m in 2 hours.

The event raised over $25,000!!!

Thank you for everyone that made this event possible and for the friends and family that donated to the cause.

Weekend in Edmonton

Weekend in Edmonton

After the rush of the week there’s always the weekend dilemma of what to do with the kids and how much is too much.

Now the most important thing in my view is always “less electronics” and I’m so happy that the weather now is so nice (even is it RAINS!) that we can begin to do things in the great outdoors.

I therefore logged on and began my search. I wanted to find what’s going on around Edmonton and it didn’t take long before I clicked to  To Do Canada. I was so happy to find a great list of suggestions.

Want some inspiration for this weekend in Edmonton…I got you!

 

 

All about Making Life Memorable one weekend at a time!

I find that there’s a similarity between living in Kuwait and Canada…..Sounds totally out of wack I know but it involves the weather.

There were many times when I would have the perfect plan of how I would like to spend my day….Ha ha ha! Jokes on me, you can’t always plan especially when there are so many external forces working in another direction.

So many times when we were in Kuwait I would have the best outdoor plan to take the girls and we wake up on the day and it’s just way to dusty to go out let alone spend the day outdoors.

Well much to my surprise we have cancelled several “outdoor” plans in Canada because of too much snow!!! When we thought it had all cleared up we wake up to a few inches of snow and spend it at the mall or movies instead.

So when I planned the girls’ Easter weekend to go to an Easter event at Prairie Gardens and realize its not happening when read online:

* Hop! Into Spring Festival – Cancelled *
Due to the extremely wet, snowy and muddy conditions – we’re sorry to announce that we’re cancelling the Hop! Into Spring Festival this weekend (April 29 & 30). Apologies for any inconvenience.

We just had to change the plan and just do something in the warmth of the indoors….West Edmonton Mall it was!!!

Stay tuned to see our visit to Prairie Gardens!

Making Like Memorable no matter what challenges we face!!
