An Airstream Boutique, Forest Fairy Camp, and a Ukrainian Long Table Dinner

July 14, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

Local Love-1Airstream Boutique: I stumbled upon Somewear Boutique on Instagram and I’m so intrigued! Billed as “#yeg’s first mobile consignment boutique,” Creator Jacqueline Kitzan plans to take her followers on a journey as she transforms an old Airstream trailer into a boutique. They’re hoping the public gets excited about the restoration process, viewed via Instagram. Join me in monitoring their progress right here.

GATHER: Shop the Skinny has another GATHER workshop coming up July 26th!  Tickets go on sale this Sunday, July 16 at 7:30 p.m. Don’t take too long: it’ll sell out fast! To learn more about GATHER – go here.

Long Table Dinner: KITCHEN by Brad Smoliak is hosting a long table Ukrainian dinner at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village Saturday evening (July 15). Still a few spots left at the table. More info here. 

Adventure Up North: We had an incredible time at Lesser Slave Lake a few weekends ago. At some point you should try to sneak in a little getaway to this gem in our province. Check out my recap and more photos – here.

Forest Fairies Summer Camp: Creation Space has a really neat 1/2 day camp coming up called Forest Fairies. It runs 9:00 a.m-noon from July 24-28.Your kids will transform the studio into an enchanted forest and create potions, wands and wings. How adorable is that? It’s open to kids aged 4-10. More information here.

Boutique Sale: One of my favourite local boutiques, Red Ribbon, is having a MASSIVE sale next Wednesday, July 19. They do two big sales a year – Boxing Day and next Wednesday. Dust off your credit card and get your game face on! Shop the sale in-store from 10-7 and online from 6pm-9am the next day (July 20).

Skin Care: Congrats to Marta Caufield who won my Sublime Skin Contouring Giveaway! She’ll enjoy this treatment (valued at over $1200) at Lipstick Empire LaserSpa. You have to go check this place out – I absolutely love it! Get $10 off an in-studio tan just by mentioning you read this on KariSkelton.com. I would love your feedback on my skincare discussion here.

It's truly amazing what our bodies can do. 💛

Life update. ❤ I’ll be keeping this piece of Life update. ❤

I’ll be keeping this piece of art forever. Wyatt painted this for me back in January, when I was isolated with Covid. I taped it up on the wall beside the bed during my stay in our guest room. If you zoom in, you’ll see me in the front with the big baby belly. (Wyatt calls me ‘big belly’ these days!)

Rainbows represent promise, hope, and new beginnings. 

It's been a rough past few weeks for our family, hence my absence online. Thank you so much for your messages of love, concern, and support. They mean so much to us. I know I share a lot with you on here, but I’m not going to get into details this time. Just know we're doing alright. Junebug is great (and kicking and rolling around non-stop!), Wyatt is awesome per usual, and Ryan and I are rock solid.

I had to take a break from work. My main focus has always been (and will
always be) protecting the peace, health, and well-being of our family unit. 

Social media can be a beautiful place where connection and inspiration happens. Unfortunately, it can also foster hurtful and harmful attacks. I’ve learned so much over these past few weeks, and have deeply reflected on my presence and future plans online. I’ll share more soon, but for now, I just wanted to check in, say a sincere thanks, and let you know we’re all good. ❤️
The moment I found out. September 22, 2021. I’ll The moment I found out. September 22, 2021. I’ll be honest - the first trimester wasn’t great. There were moments of joy (like this one) but it was filled with anxiety, scary moments, and a few hurdles. 

🤰I’m playing catchup on some pregnancy blog posts but I wanted to make sure this was up, especially for those who have been following our journey. 

👉 Head on over to KariSkelton.com for ‘Pregnancy Q&A: The First Trimester’ where I get into all of it. Link is in my bio.

❔️Please ask any questions. That’s the whole reason why I share about this. I believe sharing our experiences and personal stories helps all of us feel less alone and often validates what we’re going through. 

(If you can believe it, I took a video of the exact moment I found out but it disappeared from my files. Poof! Gone.💨 Of all the videos to lose…. 🙈 But very happy to have this photo).
