Hello…. We are enjoying summer break at the moment, no school for Carla and Renan until end of this month…. This year summer break is special since Oma, Opa and Tia Sita are back in Canada, woohoo! Tia Sita is going to stay for only one more week, but Oma and Opa are going to stay here a bit longer, until end of August.
Carla’s First Taekwondo Demo Team Performance

Happy New Year 2019!
Just a quick post to say Happy New Year! We hope 2019 will be even better than 2018, which was a great year full of blessings for us.
Festival of Trees
So… yesterday we had two fails. Firstly, Carla was supposed to do Taekwondo demo performance, but it was cancelled at the last minute. Secondly, we bought groupon to eat at a Thai restaurant close to the venue where Carla was supposed to do the performance, but when we got there, the restaurant was closed!
Fun in the Snow
Hello everyone!
In winter, Carla and Renan enjoy playing outside in the snow. We usually go to a small hill close to our house. It’s a great place for sledding/tobogganing, and we just have to walk for around ten minutes to get there. Oh, there’s also a “natural slide”, an icy path on the hill that the kids love.

Oma, Opa and Tia Sita in Canada
It’s already almost end of the year, time is really flying! In around one month, Carla and Renan are going to have their winter holiday. Seems like only yesterday we had our summer holiday. Summer holiday was a lot of fun, especially since Oma, Opa and Tia Sita came here to visit us in August.
We did a lot of fun things while they were here.
Super Easy Ricotta Gnocchi Recipe
This is a super easy gnocchi recipe that even younger kids can make by themselves (except boiling the gnocchi, of course). It’s quick to make, no measuring needed, and it’s yummy!
Autumn Walk
It’s almost end of October, winter is coming soon… Only one or two more weeks left to enjoy the beautiful autumn season, before everything turns white with snow.
The best way to really enjoy autumn is going for a walk through the forest, of course! It feels amazing to walk on a path covered in fallen leaves, surrounded by trees and plants with vibrantly coloured leaves.
Have Fun With Kids in Calgary
Last week I had to go to Calgary for an appointment at US consulate. We decided to use this opportunity to explore the city with the kids.
