Canada’s Wonderland Introduces The Yukon Striker

lilsugar

New to Canada’s Wonderland this year is the Yukon Striker Roller Coaster! If you are brave enough to embark on this 90-degree drop for three breathtaking seconds while staring 245 feet down into an underwater tunnel then you are one brave soul. Either that or you must live for the thrill and this coaster is just for you! The Yukon Striker reaches speeds of 130 km/h and includes a complete 360-degree loop (the only one of its kind for a dive coaster). While I do suspect the wait times will…

Canada’s Wonderland Always Full Of Surprises

lilsugar

If there was ever a way to bottle up a  nostalgic memory of my past summers as a child it would be found at Canada’s Wonderland. The smell of funnel cakes, the excitement of watching roller coasters zoom by, and the long days that turn into evenings filled with cotton candy and games – it can all be found in this place. My parents would take us every single summer as children, it would be the event of the season. We would go thrill seeking on rides and spend hours…

  It’s no secret that my husband is a huge wine lover, he collects, studies and fully enjoys it on occasion. That’s why I was thrilled to let him know of our venture to the Adamo Estate Winery. Thankfully we were invited to partake in a little one on one time and enjoy some adult conversation over the Canada Day long weekend. Truth is, my husband and I never actually go anywhere without the children so this was a great excuse to check out the winery and enjoy some dinner…

#LilGiftList Little Live Pets My Dream Kitten, Cuddles Giveaway!

lilsugar

When I was little my parents brought home the most adorable white kitten, she was fluffy and perfect just like the Cottonelle commercials circa 1985 featured. I loved that cat so much until I held her…lets just say FUR EVERYWHERE! Her shedding was horrible – she left her mark everywhere she visited and it became a nuisance to everyone who would visit. Imagine eating fur in your meals, wearing it on your clothing and finding it in your bed – gross! BUT she was gorgeous – in fact we tried…

School’s out for the summer and that means entertainment for parents around the clock! If your kids are anything like mine, they will need constant stimulation from the moment they wake up until the minute their tiny eyes shut- bring on 2 months of helicopter parenting and exhaustion. Can’t complain though, I look forward to it all year, as I can imagine you do too. Our favourite things to do are all outdoor activities however, the reality of it is that some days are just not sunny enough to spend…

Full Mobile Coverage While Living In The ‘Burbs’ -TELUS Rocks! {Giveaway}

lilsugar

I was first introduced to TELUS mobile when I was a teenager, I remember buying into the brand because of its fresh appearance, snazzy ads and really good prices. Who would have known that after years of service with other mobile networks I would become a TELUS customer once again – just under different terms. Now somewhat grown-up I stand on the other side of the fence when I say that the most important thing to me when it comes to cell phone usage is the ability to stay connected.…
