@jasonmengvisuals and I had the opportunity to bik

@jasonmengvisuals and I had the opportunity to bike here on both a cloudy day ☁️ and a very sunny day 🌞! On the cloudy day, the weather couldn’t really make up its mind and I was hot then cold, with the cold rain and wind freezing my hands as we biked as fast as we could back to our car. On the sunny day, we managed to go much further on the parkway but the crowds were REAL. So many people were biking and walking along the parkway and we definitely had to watch for those intense cyclists as we peddled our little e-bikes. This was also the first bit of sun I got this year and the backs of my hands were quite red from sunburn! What do you guys prefer when it comes to enjoying a certain activity or touristy spot in the spring/summer? Are you all for sunny days ☀️ or partly cloudy days ⛅️? 📸 @jasonmengvisuals .

In my 16 years in Calgary, I had never been to the

In my 16 years in Calgary, I had never been to the Badlands until just a few weeks ago! Even after seeing photos on social before, I was taken by surprise by the terrain and wildlife in the area. Who knew that Alberta could grow little cacti 🌵?! I sure didn’t.
And did anyone know that there are rattlesnakes, scorpions and black widows in Dinosaur Provincial Park?? Nuh-uh. It made me realize how immensely diverse this province really is and how I have covered so little of my own backyard. There are so many more adventures at the tip of our fingers than we care to think! This summer is about grasping what’s within reach before it disappears. // CHELSEA boots from @baffinworldwide always keeping my feet dry in lakes and sand-free in desserts! 🥾 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Oh hi there! 🙋🏻‍♀️ NEW BLOG POST ALER

Oh hi there! 🙋🏻‍♀️
NEW BLOG POST ALERT! 💫
My first one on my blog in months! After staying at two wonderful hotels in Banff with insane views, I thought I’d do a comparison between the two, as one is affordable and one is luxury. I gave each a rating against five factors, but I’d love to know which of the two you’d think is worth it! Check out the “Latest Post” link in my bio before you make your choice 💛 https://laurenslighthouse.com/banff-hotels-with-a-view-affordable-vs-luxury/ 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Do you have moments where you wish you could press

Do you have moments where you wish you could press a “fast-forward” button on your life? Pretty much every week I’ll go through these thoughts in my head:
“I wish we had a dog already”
or
“I cannot wait to have kids” and I picture this life, cozying up to the fantasy of my life down the road. I ultimately forget how gracious and precious life is right now, in these moments where I’m able to have a part of myself that I might not in the future. There are many things we “can’t wait” for, but once those milestones have been reached, there’s almost always no turning back and you find yourself reminiscing a part of your life in the past. So rather than having your finger hovering over the “fast-forward” button, let go of the remote. Time passes by before you even know it and there is so much of your life right now to rejoice in. 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Anyone excited for this place to open up again? 🤩 Jason and I are actually heading to this neck of the woods today for a new collaboration and we would’ve LOVED for Moraine Lake to open while we were there! I don’t think our little e-bikes would be able to get us up the road on their own 🥲 Where’s one place you wish were accessible for more than a few months a year? 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

I’m not sure about you guys, but I’ve definite

I’m not sure about you guys, but I’ve definitely felt it be a tad harder to stay healthy the past year. I didn’t realize how much I burned just walking to and from the office, taking the train, cleaning the snow off my car, etc. Add on the closed gyms and the easy access to snacks at home and you have a recipe for putting on some unwanted weight! Is there a reason why, as we approach summer, we get hit with the reality that we’ve gotten a little fluffier and rush to make some changes? Maybe it’s the fact that we can no longer hide behind our clothing layers? 🤔 Regardless of where you’re at in your health and fitness journey, just know that weight gain is natural and NEVER love yourself any less because of the changes your body goes through. // Top and shorts from @duerperformance ! 🤍🖤 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Can you imagine waking up to a view like this ever

Can you imagine waking up to a view like this everyday? This past weekend was 💯👌🏻 Not simply because of the mighty warm weather, the activities, food and stays, but because we got to wake up to crazy gorgeous views right outside our window. I’m excited to be sharing my first blog post in MONTHS about the two hotels we stayed at with jaw-dropping mountain views: one affordable and one luxury. I’ll keep y’all updated about its release soon! ✌🏻 P.S. have you hiked the peak that sits on the right of this photo before? 🥾🏔🙃 📸 @jasonmengvisuals

Our idea of bawlin’ on a budget 🤣🏍 These

Our idea of bawlin’ on a budget 🤣🏍 These EV bikes work like a charm for what we paid! I’m glad Jason found out about them and we snatched two of them off the Costco shelf right before they sold out! Sure we get some funny looks while we ride them, but being able to fold them into our car without a bike rack and actually enjoy riding uphill is well worth the stares! What’s something you’ve done recently that may have received some unwarranted looks? 👀😆 PS: Check out the new women spring line at @duerperformance, including this Only Tee! 🤍 📸 @jasonmengvisuals
