Instagram post 17854247146650464 Some people collect watches. Others, shoes. I love sunglasses myself. Ok, shoes too. This was a few weeks ago in Turks and Caicos. A big change from today - totally freezing in Toronto! We live on a corner with lots of foot traffic. Any tips as to how to make sure the snow doesn’t turn to ice as soon as people walk on it? Is salt the only option? ❄️☃️ ps. I think snow is so romantic and wonderful!!!! #newtowinter #snowingalready #homekeeping #diorsunglasses #beachvibes #hapariswimwear #champagneonthebeach #turksandcaicos #tci #solitude #happymom
Instagram post 18037970617217198 Lest we forget. There are no poppies in Georgia, but we watched the parade and thanked and clapped for US veterans and soldiers. #remembrance #remembranceday #memorialday #savannah #yellowribbon #oldoaktree #georgia #thankful

Instagram post 18113990614048833 Sport brings so many communities together! Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved sailing flags and burgees. I used to have my nautical initials on the back of the first car I ever owned. It was a beige oil-burning stick-shift Dodge Colt named Tiffany. Don’t laugh. 🤣😎 Thrilled to be at the @scyachtclub with the boys this weekend! #familytravel #optisailing #rcycracing @rcycyouthsailing @rcyctoronto #communitybuilding #youthsports #sailingflags
Instagram post 18036383860220732 Halloween is pretty much my favourite. And this year we get about 500 kids instead of 14!! The spooky music is playing, 3 pumpkins carved, ghouls with red eyes to greet the kids. Plus a caged crow that flaps and caws. And Derek is wearing his Dino head!!! #halloween

Instagram post 17860050796574184 Love this shot of @ford_amery and @jordanbcsailing from #opticanadians taken by @christsgphoto. We will head in November to Hilton Head, South Carolina where Ford and @_hudson_amery_ will represent @rcycoptiraceteam for the @scyachtclub Team Racing #regatta. Excited to see #HiltonHead for the first time! ⛵️#Repost @zimsailing with @get_repost ・・・ Introducing Ford Amery! Ford is a Canadian sailor trailing with his team to compete in Hilton Head, SC. His proudest accomplishment is getting the sportsmanship award at his local club. If he was stuck on a desert island with one of his teammates, he would choose @angus1260 because he is always the most positive. When he's not on the water, Ford is skateboarding, snowboarding or hanging out with friends. #optiracing #dinghysailing #dinghysailor #southcarolina #canadianathletes @longundie #rcyc @westvancouveryachtclub @wvyc_race_team #optisailor #regattalife #youthsailing #canadiansailing
Instagram post 18071943685159179 I attended an event sponsored by @sanofi that was incredibly successful in raising awareness of the importance of protecting seniors during the upcoming flu season. 🤧 This pic is part of a giant photo exhibit that was featured, depicting images that had been sent in by the public specifically to show us all how seniors are incredible pillars of strength in our society. 💪🏼 Did you know that due to weakening immune systems, adults 65 and older have lower responses to infections, greater susceptibility to the flu, and are at high risk for complications or hospitalization if they do get the flu? 🏥 #Ad . Also…..one-third of elderly flu victims leave the hospital with a reduced ability to carry out their daily activities. This means that the standard of life for them and their loved ones can be affected significantly after a severe flu. And it’s preventable with the higher-dose vaccine. 💉 But did you know that not every Canadian province and territory makes this higher-dose shot available to its seniors? Now I think we have to all start pressing our provincial governments to make this higher-dose vaccine available to each and every senior throughout this great country, no matter which province or territory they happen to reside in! 🇨🇦 . #SanofiPartner #SeniorHealth #CareforSeniors #CanadianHealthcare #InequlityforSeniors #flushot #fluvaccine #vaccinate #elderlycare #seniorcitizens #seniorpictures #seniorcitizen #canpoli #seniorcare #grandparents #grandparentslove
Instagram post 17915897059353799 This photo of last week’s conference gives me such peace. Organized, orderly and bright. 🌞 Wishing my life felt like that right now! I missed booking parent-teacher interviews, ran out of milk, had to call an Uber after getting stuck in traffic so the boys could get to an appointment... but I vow to paint my life with the colours strewn across every aspect of the #BeachesMoms #socialmediaonthesand conference last week. The theme was all about the senses, and it just hit me that if you feel like barrels of monkeys are falling on your head every minute (no idea where monkeys came from!! Oh wait...🙊🙉🙈🐵) then your senses get muted. Here’s to seeing the pastels, hearing the breeze, smelling the dirty kitty litter I forgot to clean (oops) and feeling the touch of your little one hugging you in times of vulnerability. Thanks @beachesresorts for this opportunity to reset and get back on track. 💗 #5senses #reset #resetbutton #beachespartner #shadesofpink #stripes 📷: #lauradee
Instagram post 18024316498242603 My last dip and view always has to be the Key West pool. Many think it’s adult only but kids are welcome and it’s right by the beach, flanked by sand dunes, grass and modern hammocks. At @beachesresorts each village offers something different and special for pool selection. The Iguana pool in Caribbean village has volleyball, the French Village pool is massive with a swim up bar and hot tubs. The Italian pool has fitness, games, music vibes and another swim up bar. In Key West, you can choose adult pools or this one next to the beach. Missing this view already!! 🏝#beachesmoms #socialmediaonthesand #dreamvacations #turksandcaicosislands #turksandcaicos #beachesresorts #beachespartner #vacationvibes
Instagram post 17876454712464617 Several bits of advice this week have set off fireworks in my heart and I just got another epic one. @thesharkdaymond starts every day reviewing his short and long-term goals. . . He stays away from social media and emails for an hour after waking because, well, it’s rare that you get an email saying all the problems are fixed and there’s a cheque for $1MM in the mail. 🤣 . . Before bed, he reads the goals again. You either dream of fears or hopes, so watching violent movies or even checking Twitter probably won’t help those great dreams come to fruition or give you a peaceful sleep. . . I’m going to get the whole family doing this. We’ve just instituted ‘no screen Mondays’ and tomorrow would be a perfect time to set some goals. 👊🏼 📷: @jeannettekaplun #beachesmoms #socialmediaonthesand #beachespartner @beachesresorts #vacationvibes #sharktank #turksandcaicosislands #lifecoaching #goaalsetting #liveyourbestlife #familyvacay #personalgrowth
Instagram post 17850385045650474 Proud mama. I think we have pretty cool kids. (Even though it’s hard to make them do their homework in paradise!!) 🏖 They got certified to scuba dive @beachesresorts in Negril and Turks and Caicos over the past few years. Best and safest training ever - they even corrected another adult diver’s BCD connection yesterday! ⚓️ . What’s awesome is that diving (and tips for the dive masters) are included in the room rate. Really nice not to worry about $ on vacation. Yesterday the kids and @derekamery saw 30 reef sharks, a huge barracuda and a nurse shark lounging on the ocean bottom! 🦈 I may do a @PADI refresher so I can dive again myself if I missed that many sharks!!! . #beachesmoms #socialmediaonthesand #beachesturksandcaicos #beachesresorts #smots #beachespartner #beachesmom #beachesresort #turksandcaicosislands #beachescapes #luxurytravel #beacheskids #beachesteens #inspiredbytravel #luxuryescapes #allinclusive #scubakids #padi #scubadiving #sharksighting
Instagram post 17882990797439335 ‪I’ve been to hundreds of conferences and talks and sometimes I take away a few nuggets, but this one today stopped me in my tracks. The opening messages at #SocialMediaontheSand from @debbieannwhite are exactly what I need right now... “Today and every day we have to celebrate the boss moms in each and every one of us. Not following your gut feelings stops today. Ignite something in you and connect yourself with your inner fire.” Here’s to following your gut. Throwing on a tutu. Collaborating. Trusting instincts and celebrating the strong and creative boss mom inside. ❤️ @beachesresorts #BeachesMoms #BeachesPartner #bossmom #instincts #trustyourintuition #inspiringquotes
Instagram post 17880143557453973 Oh to be a tiny kid again!! The striped loungers at #sesameclubnursery @beachesresorts are adorable. When I took this shot, about 10 babies and toddlers were in the pool with nannies singing to them. 🏝 Colourful palm trees made of lights make nighttime babysitting exciting, and cribs line the nap rooms. The other Club Sesame spaces are filled with books and toys along with stylish chairs for the little ones. And visits from Big Bird and Cookie Monster always delight! 🍪 I want to be little again. #jillshrinks #socialmediaonthesand #beachesmoms #beachespartner @sesamestreet #kidsclub #childcare #vacationvibes #familyvacay
Instagram post 18040886200207677 One thing about wishing you could stay somewhere forever is that it means you are IN the moment. Present. Using your senses to notice life. I haven’t been very good at this lately. Being back at @beachesresorts with my family for the first time since Mom died made me realize this. There are so many ‘I wish I had’ moments. I wish I’d had a greater sense of mindfulness when she was here. Booked more photo sessions to capture her playing with the kids. 📷 Done a special dinner as mother and daughter on the beach. 🏝 But still, we made incredible memories and I cherish those. My goal is to never take another moment for granted. To be present with my family. And be grateful for every moment of life. 💗🙏🏼 #BeachesMoms #SocialMediaontheSand #BeachesPartner #VacationVibes #Mindfulness #EpicTravels #familyvacay #travel logger #vacationmood #vacationmode #intergenerationaltravel
Instagram post 18059448865173340 The day we were moving from our magical island in British Columbia to Toronto, a beloved neighbour arrived with this. @ruth_k_brock had painted this incredible watercolour of our house and it now hangs proudly in our new kitchen. 🦅 Eagle Island gave us many gifts, but having a close community in nature while the kids grew up was huge. We are loving the new city life, and are so thankful for all of the kindred spirits from across the country who have helped shape our boys, our history and future. 🙏🏼💗
