Reposted from 🎉 Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there! 🎉
Sure, we may be all about supporting the ladies, but today we're celebrating the guys who rock the dad jokes, grill like pros, and show us the true meaning of dad bod! 🍔🍻
💡 Fun Fact: Did you know that 80% of women are wearing the wrong bra size? Let's make sure the men in our lives know we appreciate their support (literally and figuratively)! So, while they're flipping burgers and cracking jokes, we’ll keep you comfy and supported.
👨👧👦 To the dads who make us laugh, lend us a hand, and remind us that strength comes in many forms – we salute you! 💙
So here’s to the dads – thanks for being the best support system around. And ladies, remember, while he's getting pampered, why not treat yourself to the perfect fit? Because every superwoman deserves a great support system too! 😉
Enjoy your day, and keep supporting each other in style! 🌟

**How Time Flies!**
These two amazing kids, who have been friends since playschool at age 3, graduated together this weekend. It was truly beautiful 😍.
I remembered the day they first got on the bus. They were still in French preschool, , located inside their future French school, École . Their eyes were wide with excitement and a bit of fear. I was on the sidewalk, crying as I watched my baby move on to the next stage.
The same feelings resurfaced this weekend.
It has been a beautiful journey. I am so grateful to Conseil scolaire for providing my children the incredible opportunity to grow up bilingual in Calgary. Thank you to all the amazing teachers.
Merci de tout Mon Coeur ❤️

Oh, my city ❤️
I’m not gonna lie; when I first met you in ‘88, you were not all that sophisticated, and it certainly wasn’t love at first sight. Coming from the elegance of Lady Montreal, you felt pretty rugged. You were a wild rose, not quite in bloom.
Our first encounter was a shock to the senses! Yet, a few months later, there you were, hosting the grandest Olympics ever, and oh, how you shone! Slowly but surely, I fell for your unique charm.
Now, decades later, you stand majestic, a cosmopolitan beauty—diverse, refined, and my beloved home for over 35 years. 💖🌹
I snagged this picture a couple nights ago while enjoying a sunset with my 15-year-old Calgarian 😍🥰

Finding myself at a life crossroads, like navigating through a divorce, feels a bit like being the main character in a choose-your-own-adventure story—each decision is pivotal and packed with potential.
Luckily, I've got my trusty band of loyal friends to consult the map with me, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking solo trek into a spirited group expedition. And those who drifted away when the plot thickened? Well, they simply cleared the stage for some STELLAR NEW CHARACTERS to make their entrance. I'm profoundly thankful for my steadfast friends and equally excited about the fresh faces joining this journey. With them, every crossroad seems like an opportunity for an unforgettable adventure!
P.S. too many people to mention here...but you know how you are!
The three of us met yesterday...😎
Good news, we've got more shows coming up, chicks!

Just chilling with my gold shoes up, spinning some before tonight's big debut of our comedy show .
Hope to rock the stage like a Jailhouse Rocker or at least shake things up enough to leave them All Shook Up!
