swinging in the sun!


Today marks the first day of summer and the longest day of the entire year - the Summer Solstice. It's the day the sun is its most powerful and abundant. And from sunrise to sunset, my Mom is playing her heart out!

It’s the Longest Day of Golf - literally.

Golfers and volunteers all over Canada raise money in support of the Canadian Cancer Society’s programs and services. At the Highlands Golf Course here in Ottawa, 4 men and 4 women venture on a 17 hour golfing marathon! This inspiring group of 8 embark on a full day of completing over 200 holes of golf (each!). And my Mom intends to expand on their record of 234 holes! They do this for the love of the game. And they do it to raise money for cancer - beautiful!

My Mom has already raised close to $1000 this year. She is more than a hero to me - because I just know, only a SUPERhero can golf 13 rounds of 18 holes in one day!

On the day of the year when the masculine energy of the sun is shining at its strongest, I’ll be soaking it all in.. along with the amazing female energy of my very own Mom that will be shining all day long, in the heart of Ottawa!

I’m sponsoring my Mom 10 cents a hole and I’m looking forward to cheering her on and bringing refreshing treats along the way. And for any of you that are as impressed as I am, feel some extra gratitude for what these amazing people are up to! And if you’re interested in sponsoring this incredible group, please let me know! :)

Happy summer time!!
