5 Fun Adventures To Get Outside Before It’s Too Cold

5 Fun Adventures To Get Outside Before It’s Too Cold
Fall is almost over and before we say goodbye to the autumn magic, I’m curious to know — what did you do to make this season memorable?

Was it harvesting or land tending? Spending the brightest days in the farmhouse? Or perhaps, you retreated to a wood cabin to find peace among majestic redwoods and maroon leaves, the quiet wind howling outside whilst you slurped a fifth cup of hot marshmallow-cocoa, basking in the warmth of the fluffiest blanket near the fireplace in the company of a heartwarming romance? Doesn’t that sound like heaven?

If you found yourself stuck inside this fall, I get it and I am also here to give you some new ideas to get you out into nature before the frigid temperatures and snow move in. Finish out fall with these five fun fall adventures to get outdoors. Having tested out all of these adventures myself, I have one thing to say: it’s all about having fun and creating memories.Continue Reading

Toronto Adventures: Planta Restaurant

Family food time at Planta Restaurant
Eating has been one of my favorite activities here in Toronto. We have had some truly delectable meals out and I’m loving the easy access to amazing food living in the city affords us. Where we live in Utah there’s no Postmates, Doordash or Uber Eats. We can’t even get a pizza delivered to the house so I’m forced to cook more nights than not. Usually I love the process and creativity of cooking but I have to admit that I’m really enjoying the little respite living in Toronto has brought me from grocery lists, meal plans and clean up!Continue Reading

Those Heavenly Finds: Week 2

Welcome to this weeks selection of Heavenly Finds, a collection of favorite clothes, accessories and beauty finds. These are just a few of my favorites…there are many many more that I’ll be sharing in the coming weeks so get ready to do some shopping! Or just browsing is perfectly fine as well. In fact I should do a little more browsing and a little less shopping myself. Oh well, I do my best. I do my best.

Women’s Sammy Knit Sneakers

Purl Soho Two Piece Woven Bag
Purl Soho Two Piece Woven Bag
  • Purl Soho Two Piece Woven Bag – This tote is so chic and I’d love to try my hand at weaving! Plus it’s the perfect size for your weekend farmer’s market finds. Unless you have a tendency to buy in bulk like I do, then you’ll need at least four of them!
Faux Leather Moto Leggings
  • Faux Leather Moto Leggings – These are surprisingly light weight and work great even on a hot summer night. They are my go to for date nights and dinners with friends. Paired with a simple white tee, a blazer and nude heels I look put together even though I’m still wearing the comfy leggings I’ve been in all day!
OPI Gel Color Put It In Neutral
  • OPI Gel Color Put It In Neutral – Totally in love with the super nude hard gel manicure I just got! It’s a chic, clean and classic look I’ll be rocking all summer!

Toronto Adventures: Evergreen Brick Works

Toronto Adventures: Evergreen Brick Works
The Kelley clan has been really living it up exploring our adopted city of Toronto. We relish our quiet existence in Utah but have been loving the change of scenery and the opportunity to experience city living. Before kids I rarely ever got out and explored the locations my work took me to. I am so grateful my little ones have forced me off the couch and out to adventure. The first stop on our Toronto tour was Evergreen Brick Works. We hit it up kinda late on a Friday so most everything was closed for the evening but we loved the beauty, serenity and all the awesome, even though we couldn’t use them, features of the park. We plan to hit it back up for the Saturday Farmers Market soon and Josh and I are dying for an adults only date night at the beautiful farm to table Cafe Belong.Continue Reading
