ZOO DAY WITH MOM, DAD, AND FUTURE HUBS!

If you have visited Jake and I in Calgary, chances are we have taken you to the Zoo! This set of special visitors was no different; my mom and dad got to accompany us on a Zoo excursion, and I'm always proud to show people a place that I hold close to my heart.

My mom and dad have gone to the zoo with us before, but this time they got to see the pandas, the "grown up" Kimani, and the 7ft tall Narobi! Hope you enjoy a few photos from the day, I surely enjoyed taking them.

With crowds of people, these are the only panda bear photos I have that made the cut; keep an eye out, I am sure to return!

Mom and dad watching the red pandas as they tromped through the grass.

These little guys are always good for a laugh, always so curious about their surroundings.

My beautiful Narobi, all grown up!

A mama and her babies, hidden from most of the crowds but spotted by my dad's keen eye.

A teeny tiny kitten we spotted, one day I hope to see one on the trail.

The white black bear, always goofing around, and this visit was no different.

I always try to capture a photo of their little ears; for some reason they are my fav part of them.

These little scoundrels are always proving to be gorgeous models, how lucky are we to share the same home as them?!

Hope you enjoyed browsing my zoo photos!As always, thank you for the constant support.

10 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO HELP ANIMALS IN NEED

If you're anything like me, you have a real soft spot for animals, especially those who haven't been treated fairly. Ever felt helpless, wondering what you can do to help? Well lucky for you, I've got a list of 10 easy things you can do to make a real difference in the lives of the animals who need your help. (this little guy was named Samson. A volunteer from Megan's Rescue Efforts called about a tiny little pup they found who was in terrible shape! This photo was taken during Samson's first few days at the rescue. Wait until you see the handsome pup he was transformed into!!) 1. ADOPT Although this seems like a no brainer, it still needs to be said. There are hundreds of animals waiting in a shelter to find their forever homes, and believe it or not, there are purebreds as well. Staff and volunteers work tirelessly to learn the personalities of each animal, and work to make the best matches between adopter and animal. This is a life time commitm

SUNDAY FUNDAY WITH VIVIAN AND JAKE

It has been a while since our last adventure, so we decided today was the perfect day to get some quality self-care time in the books before Jake heads out of town for work again. Following the most up-and-down Summer of our lives, our Fall didn't slow down much at all with school, starting my own cleaning business, starting practicum, and Jake's work getting super busy, taking him out of town. With that said, the snow finally melted (somewhat), and the temperature warmed up, so it was a perfect day to grab an adventure partner, and explore a part of Fish Creek Park that we have never been to. We messaged Megan, suited up for an adventure and picked up sweet Vivian (pictured above). Vivian is a 7 month old pup who was picked up in Morley, suspected of being dumped by her previous owners. We don't know much of her back story, but we are determined to help her create a more adventurous, happy, and loving future. Throughout the car ride, Vivian sat in t

OUR FOSTER FAIL, OUR HOUSE COW

The beginning of Sasha's story is not the most glamorous, she was brought into the rescue because she was pregnant and the owners no longer wanted her. When she arrived, all I remember thinking was "another mostly black cat, she'll be hard to get adopted..." You see, Sasha was not ever one to want any human interaction, even more so when she had her kittens. She would allow you to pet her, but she was never one to seek out the attention. None the less as her kittens grew they developed their own spunky personalities, and we took 2 of them in as our fosters (Bailey & Marlin, see below). Marlin here was already pending adoption when we got him in our care, and it didn't take long to figure out why. This little guy was full of personality, and never ever turned down a cuddle. Bailey however wasn't getting any interest until the day that she climbed next to the food bag and sat there, looking like a mirror image of the cat on the cat food
