SNOW ANGEL⠀ Have you ever made a snow angel?⠀ There is nothing better than a free fall backwards into a fresh pile of snow and making a snow angel! Unless there is a rock hidden underneath that snow and then it's a whole other story. ⠀ 🤪⠀ Did you know if you google making a snow angel there are ACTUALLY articles and Youtube videos to show you how??? I cracked up!⠀ No true Canadian would need a how-to guide for that: we are born knowing that 💩....Along with how to play hockey, how to wear a toque and we all know that Maple Syrup goes with Everything!!⠀ 🇨🇦⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #livemoremagic #clickimagine #createandinspire #creativecollective #creativitychasers #imaginativeuniverse #manipulationclan #everydaymagic #creativegrammer #igcreative #thecreatives #digitalcontentors #mycreativeescape #thecreativegrid #storytellers #editjunkies #wherewomencreate #amomentofwonder #ps_daydream #ps_magic #thefairytalebloggers #enter_imagination #igcreative_editz #dreaminginpictures #snowangel #santaraw #raw_community_member #lifeoffreedom #pursueyourpassion #editformagic
DEVIL DOG CHRONICLES...⠀ "The ELAINE"⠀ Fionnegan has this quirk that I affectionately call “the Elaine” (a character from Seinfeld that would push/shove people when she was excited). ⠀ Much like Elaine, Fionnegan is a petite girl, but don't let her size fool you- I have never met a dog as strong and powerful as she is. ⠀ One day after a run I was doing a few hamstring stretches with one leg propped up on the counter....you can see where this is going right? 🥺⠀ Well Fionnegan had just finished her lunch and of course this brought her great excitement, so she ran over, jumped and pushed me while I balanced on one leg. Lo and behold I toppled over and smacked into the adjacent door frame. ⠀ Ouch!! You could see the bruises up and down my side and an outline on my shoulder where I hit the frame. ⠀ I was hurt pretty bad, so much so, I had to cancel dinner plans that evening and explain the cause was due to the DOG pushing me! 😱 My friends didn't even question it because they all know Fionnegan and her shenanigans.⠀ We have worked to get her out of this bad habit and I am happy to report that it is way better, with only the rare occurrence when she meets new men...she likes to push....ummmm....their "goods" shall we say?⠀ It is quite the first impression wouldn't you say?⠀ 😜⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #blacklabsquad #labs_of_insta #lablovers #blacklabsofinstagram #blacklabsdaily #weeklyfluff #blacklab_squad #animalportraits #animalportraitphotography #ontariophotographer #raw_animals #raw_community_member #raw_cuteness #labloversofinstagram #labradorlove #devildog #asecondofwhimsey #livemoremagic #ofwhimsicalmoments #inspiremyfeed #whatmakesmehappy #storytellers #daysofsmallthings #myquietbeauty #allIseeispretty #ofquietmoments #creatorgrams #dreamersanddoers #dailyhustle #lifeoffreedom

PINES AND NEEDLES...⠀ I can honestly say that there is no shortage of pines and needles in my home just now. The whole house smells of trees, or as my friend said "it smells like Christmas in here" and I haven't even lit a scented candle or used any room scents! I have had so much fun making my own all natural Xmas decorations this year- from the garland around the doors to the centerpiece on the dining table it has all been foraged from nature or made from items that I "shopped" in the house!⠀ Total cost? $0!! ⠀ Whoohoo!!!⠀ I really wish ya'll could smell this place right now....it is intoxicating!!!⠀ *sniff sniff*⠀ 🎄🎄🎄⠀ @storyofmyhome⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #storyofmyhome #myinteriorvibe #howyouhome #eclecticdecor #mycuratedaesthetic #myhomevibe #myeclecticstyle #myspaceanddecor #pursuepretty #mybeautifulsimplicity #slowlived #alittlebeautyeverday #lovewhereyoudwell #nestandthrive #stylishhomevibes #howyouhome #habitatandhome #interiordetails #simplestyling #scandistyle #styledupinterior #myspaceanddecor #myslowandsimple #hyggehome #hyggelife #hyggelifestyle #interiordesigner #interiorinspiration #hyggechristmas
FOREST BATHING...⠀ "Go to a Forest. ⠀ Walk slowly. ⠀ Breathe. ⠀ Open all your senses.⠀ This is the healing way of Shinrin-yoku Forest Therapy, the medicine of simply being in the forest."⠀ I love walking in nature among the trees and I am fortunate enough to have the forest practically in my backyard. Walking on this Pine forest trail in the winter is just magical and I am grateful for every opportunity that I have to explore. ⠀ Wishing you all a wonderful Sunday and I hope your weekend was filled with great memories.⠀ #cs_gratitude⠀ ❄️❄️❄️⠀ @creativelysquared @_hello_g_⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #canoncanada #lifeinthecountry #ofquietmoments #simpleandstill #agameoftones #bevisuallyinspired #vibesofvisuals #photooftheday #nothingisordinary #instamood #naturephotography #landscapephotography #naturegram #discoverontario #wanderlust #thevisualcollective #letsgosomewhere #neverstopexploring #stayandwander #raw_canada #raw_country #raw_seasons #raw_community_member #ipulledoverforthis #backroad_visions #landscapersofinstagram #nature_photography #explorecanada
