I looked after Peanut for an extended long weekend while my parent's went away.
She's so cute and fun to have around...
except when she wakes me up at 3:45am to go outside.

Friday night my girl friend and I got Greek on Wheels and hung out.
Saturday I went to breakfast with some of my favourite girl friends.
Outfit deets: Gap denim jacket (DIY'ed), Old Navy dress & Joe Fresh suede boots.
A surprise from a friend and my fave.
Saturday morning breakfast.
After breakfast, my bff and I checked out the local Farmers Market... which was totally lame and we left after seeing everything in five minutes.
That evening I discovered my new favourite wine: Fuzion Pinot Grigio.
Clearly a favourite as the bottle is empty.
Saturday night dinner. Ahh-mazing.
Peanut and I relaxed on Sunday morning; I had a shake, she wished she had a shake.
Then we met up with a friend (and I wore my favourite denim shorts)...
...for some iced coffee on a patio.
On Sunday night there was some sort of hot-air-balloon festival happening and I snapped this shot from my bedroom window.
That evening we had an #XtremeWaterparks meeting to prep for the next day.
Outfit deets: Garage cropped denim jacket, Dynamite tube top and Pure & Simple maxi skirt.

Monday morning, upon arrival at Calypso waterpark, way before opening hours.
After a long day of filming, climbing over 150 flights of stairs (not kidding) during the day and having the time of our lives; enjoying a cold one.
I actually managed to pull myself together on Monday evening and go out for dinner.
Outfit deets: Joe Fresh dress, vintage (thrifted) belt & Kelsi Dagger wedges.

Probably the best (fois gras) burger I've ever had in my entire life.

Something crazy is happening today.
My friends and I have been chosen to take part in the filming of Xtreme Waterparks. The show debuted on the Travel Channel in July of this year and they are filming all over North and South America (from what I understand). Our group of four beat out twenty other groups that applied for this. Crazy!
That said, what you see above is what I will be wearing all day today during filming (HD filming, ack!), so we are hoping for warm weather. I'm seriously freaking out, actually, as I'm somewhat of a chicken when it comes to the more extreme water-slides (what have I gotten myself into!?).
Wish me luck and I'll let you know how it goes. Happy long weekend Monday!
UPDATE: Read about the experience HERE.
My friends and I have decided to get away this winter, and before the Christmas season. We just booked our trip to the Dominican Republic in November, and I couldn't be more excited. My last and only time I've ever been to an all-inclusive was for my honeymoon, so going with friends is definitely a different experience that I'm really looking forward to.
We are staying at the Sirenis in Punta Cana for a week. The idea of going away prior to Christmas is something so foreign to me, as if anything, I have gone away in February/March the past few years. It's very exciting to have a trip so soon and to kind of kick of the winter with!
(Pssst, did you also know I'm going to Vegas next month?!)
So this totally happened tonight! I have a friend (of a friend) with a motorcycle and we went for a ride tonight. Amazing. I have rode a motorcyle before, but I've never been on the back of a sport bike.
What a thrill!
We had a great time, took a long ride up in the Gatineaus, sat and watched the sunset and came back into town for some patio action.
My summer was just made.
