Happenings

Can you believe it's mid-November already? I can, because it's damn freezing outside! Time to bring out my Canada Goose parka. Sob. Bright side? The holidays are around the corner! I don't feel ready yet, but here we areā€”with only weeks to go before Christmas. Last night the kids and I got the house ready and put up some holiday decorations, so now things are starting to feel festive inside.

It's been an incredibly busy time for me, and I am so excited that I have partnered with Urban Barn as their Brand Ambassador and Spokesperson as the store expands in Ottawa with a second location in Kanata.

I love Urban Barnā€”and I am always inspired with all the stuff they sell, from the bedroom and dining room sets to the home accents. I want to re-do my entire house with everything Urban Barn! I had a fun segment on CTV yesterday where I talked about different looks for the holidays, from hosting a New Year's Eve adults-only party, to how to make your dinner table look festive if you're doing a traditional dinner at home.



I also had so much fun hosting the Urban Barn twitter party the other night, in celebration of Urban Barn's Kanata location openingā€”especially the part where we were trending in Canada. Wow!

I'll be hosting an in-store Holiday Style Session on Sunday, December 7th, from 10:00-11:00 a.m.,  at the Urban Barn Kanata on Hazeldean Road, and you're all invited to attend! I can't wait to share my tips and tricks with you on how to make your home holiday-ready. (More to come on this soon.)

After CTV I headed over to Daytime Ottawa (where I always love co-hosting the show with Derick!) to talk about how I turned my blog into my business. (Here's a hint: determination, passion, love, and a lot of hard work!) 



Other great news to share: I am the new Community Manager and Online Editor for Momstown Ottawa! I'm thrilled to have joined this awesome team, and I truly love Momstown. It's such  great website and resource for moms, and I'm happy to have been hired in this role. I love Ottawa and I love being a mom, so hopefully I'll provide the kind of quality content people have come to know and love when visiting Momstown.ca. 

Lots of good things going on right now, and busy is always a good thing. I hope you're having a great November, too!
