Our DIY Photos!

My week off was hectic in the beginning. We did A LOT of organizing and cleaning ...was not fun but needed to be done in the worst way! Near the end of the week we got to relax and this is when we decided to take some photos! We planed a beautiful drive and we stop and take pictures along the way at various spots we liked.  It was a lot of fun! We don't have a professional camera in any way just a regular point and shoot with a tripod is all we used. It was nice to get out and finally get some pictures of us! (Our Daughter was away at camp so we will be doing some family ones when the little guy is born!)

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer! :)

Nope we don’t own one of those...

Note: Almost everyone I know owns one of these and let me say I think it's great & awesome for them! (and others I don't know who own one!) This is just how we feel so I hope no one gets offended. 

For a long time I have felt guild for not owning one of these, I felt less of a person on this planet, it was like a secret club I didn’t belong to and it felt shameful. When people would ask if we rented or owned I felt so awkward answering that question… I really shouldn’t have but I did! Maybe it is because society feels you should do things a certain way and owning a home is a little part of that “way”. You always hear the same old story - get married…buy a home and then have kids.  We have never felt that to be true!! So our answer is simple now “ We don’t have plans on owning a home anytime soon”

Right now renting is great and fits our needs to a T! When things brake we don’t fork out money to fix it or worry about the roof, furnace or anything like that. We love renting; We love that we can be in a great family neighborhood that maybe if we were buying would not get the opportunity to be in. The big reason though is that we don’t want to settle just yet, we have no idea where in Canada we want to live/raise our family.  Maybe we want to be a traveling family and explore every inch of this country of ours or maybe we want live on a boat in Nova Scotia...who knows :) We both live for adventure and that desire could take us anywhere!  

There is however three things I do know for sure…

1)   Life is way to short to NOT live outside the box

2)   In the end all we are left with are the experiences

3)   The only regrets you have are the risks you didn’t take
