Goat Yoga, A New Sandwich Place, and Simons Part Two

August 18, 2017 By Kari 1 Comment

Edmonton 18-1

Yoga with Goats: I have to try this: you can now do you yoga with goats, sheep, pigs and other animals at Farm Animal Rescue and Rehoming Movement (FARRM) Animal Sanctuary in Wetaskiwin. So far, events are held twice a month. August is sold out but there’s another one coming up September 17th. All proceeds go to FARRM.

Sandwich Game: The super-popular Farrow Sandwiches just opened a second site. Check them out at their new spot in Ritchie – 9855 76 Ave or the original location 8422 109 Street. Congrats, Farrow!

Dream Closet: Have a peek at my brand new dream closet! I teamed up with California Closets to design a few beautiful spaces in our home. Watch for reveals of my husband Ryan’s closet and our living room space in the coming months.

Edmonton 18-4

Drinks at the Zoo: Go to the zoo without your kids. Zoo Brew is an adult-only fundraiser for the Edmonton Valley Zoo, where you can walk around the zoo with a drink, watch performances, and play games. It’s on August 25 from 6-11 p.m. All proceeds to the Arc Project. Get your tickets here.

Simons Part Two: Edmonton’s second Simons location opens next Thursday, August 24 at Londonderry Mall. While you’re there, pop into the Shop Canada Runway (eight stores with an Alberta-focus).

Couples Hike: This is such a great way to reconnect with the important people in your life. Check out all the photos from our Over the Hills couples hiking trip – here.

Edmonton 18-5

Fringe:  One of Edmonton’s most popular summer festivals kicked off last night, and runs until August 27. It’s the biggest festival of it’s kind in North America (220 shows this year)! The Kids’ Fringe at Light Horse Park has been revamped to include a fairy garden where your babes can make crafts and watch performances. More details on all of it – here.

Instragram Cheaters: My friend and fellow-blogger Diana of 204 Park wrote a great piece on the frustration behind shady business practices on Instagram. Give it a read here and please, for all our sake, don’t buy your followers and likes. Cool? Shameless plugs are ok though. Follow me on Insta – here!

Canadian Rock Royalty: Catch Tom Cochrane, Trooper, Chilliwack, Sass Jordan at the Edmonton Rock Music Festival on tonight and tomorrow at Hawrelak Pak. You can get tickets at the gate or buy them here.

What do you do when other kids are mean to your ki What do you do when other kids are mean to your kid? How do you handle it? No matter what season you're in with parenting or how old your kids are, I would love to hear your tactics! Please share below in the comments and we can all learn from each other👇👇. #pinkshirtday

Even when Wyatt was littler and would sometimes get rejected at the park when he asked to play, it would shatter my heart. 😫

I was bullied in high school pretty bad. My aunt stepped in one time and regulated some mean girls. Shared the (now) hilarious story on my Stories.❤❤

Wyatt's cute tee is from @deuxpardeuxkids, I'm wearing my @smashtess sweetheart roper and that heart print out is @justinema's free printable Kindness Challenge! (Looks like I have some catching up to do)! 🤣
See that cute little face photo bombing in the bac See that cute little face photo bombing in the back? 😊 He helps with my mental health on a daily basis. I know what each person needs varies, but for me, getting alone time to walk the dogs has been key in managing my anxiety and stress (especially this past year).

I believe investing in mental health initiatives is more important than ever. I’m so happy to be partnering with @atbfinancial for a really meaningful campaign called #ATBUp.

Each weekday from March 1-12, one more simple, FUN social challenge will be presented. When you complete and share on social using #ATBUp, @atbfinancial will donate $1 to @mentalhealthab!

I’ll be heading up two challenges—and including Moses 🐶 and Monroe 🐶. I hope you’ll join me! 😊💛

Visit up.atb.com to enter to win prizes, and get more info about the challenges and Alberta’s Mental Health Foundation.
I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with I love you, my Valentine.❤ I love traveling with you. I miss traveling. The end. Happy Valentine's Day!
