It wonāt be long until the mountains start looking like this š š
Hoping to get out for some of the changing colours once I get into a routine with babe (if she decides to arrive soon) #banff #larchvalley #fall #freshairandfreedom
Hard reset. Works every time. Parenting is just easier outside. I also feel completely reset when I spend time in nature.
Who else agrees? š² šļø š

You CAN take your kiddo(s) tenting all by yourself. Is it a lot of work? Yes, but itās always worth it, and the more you go the more confident and āeasierā it becomes.
I am here to show you itās still possible to go on adventures, and hopefully make it a little less daunting.

Premium gear for real life with your dog, designed by a trainer with 30+ years of experience. The Wolf Stride System is built for the way you actually live. Another approach to hands free walking with your doggo.
It is a backpack-integrated leash system built for comfort, durability, and freedom of movement, it features reinforced leash channels, rear gear clips, ergonomic padding, and a secure, no-slip fit that stays in place on trails, climbs, and everyday walks @wolfwomanessentials
The treat pouch, phone pouch and waste wrangler are also great add ons making walking with your doggo that much easier. Iāve brought their stainless steal dog bowls and feeding placement on a few adventures now and love them. Head to the link in my bio to check out all the gear!
If you or someone else you know spends a lot of time hiking, walking or training Doggos send this their way.

Year round* now for a lot of us āļø The sun is harshhhhhh. If only my younget self could go back and watch this reel. Iāve been a lot better over the last 10ish years, when it comes to applying and reapplying sunscreen whenever outside, though certainly wasnāt always that way. Now itās sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, long sleeve UV shirts when possible. Gotta start them early. Right??

THANK YOU @sportchek for having us again this year, for the 49th annual Motherās Day Run, Walk, & Wheel. This is such a special event. Spending the day with my little family, partaking in a sport that means so much to me. Iāve been a ārunnerā for half my life and couldnāt imagine being without it. Craig, Sutton and I ran the 10km together, cheering on other runners along the way. I loved seeing SO many parents out there pushing their kiddos in strollers. The 10km is sponsored by @adidas šš¼āāļø
The event was SOLD OUT. Weather was perfect. So many activities for kids/families. Music. The vibes were vibinā. I loved seeing so many friends, family, along with community members at the event and along the route cheering. Huge thanks to all the volunteers. We will be back!
Maybe next year, for the 50th anniversary, Sutton will be ready for the 1km kids race š„ŗ

Iāve had a lot of titles and jobs in my lifetime though āMotherā has been the most special and rewarding one. I wake up every singe day feelinā grateful for this little life of mine. Being a mama to two fur babies and a beautiful little girl, with a love for adventure already. So many people used to tell me āIf you think life is good, just wait till you become a Momā and now I get it. The love that pours from these three is. Thanks Sutton for changing me in the best of ways š«¶š¼
I hope all you mamaās out there feel the love not only this weekend, though every day. Craig, Sutton and I are heading to Calgary for the Sportchek Motherās Day Run (hence posting today), and I canāt wait to spend quality time together, taking part in a sport that means so much to me. Being surrounded by other mamaās and their family and friends.
Thanks to all of you for being here and the support for this little fam of mine. I love being a Mom and now sharing that journey with all of you.

I said what I said š«£
Also just being respectful in general of those around you at a campground or wherever your camping adventures take you this Summer (backcountry, crown land). If you are going to play music, be mindful of the volume level (no matter the time of day). Respecting quiet hours. Whispering if youāre gonna stay up later. Etc.
This past weekend Sutton and I tented at a campground and I was kept awake until almost 2am thanks to a couple folks in the site beside us who decided to stay up, drinking, talking extremely loudly to one another. Luckily I had a sound machine to try to drown out some of the noise for Sutton (she seemed to just be out cold anyways) but man oh man it drove me bonkers.
