We've Been Reynoldsed

Our very own Cooper Reynolds is the creator and visionary behind Fear Function! A haunted house we host in our yard that, this year, brought over 700 visitors! Cooper joins us on the podcast to talk about his creativity, his ideas and his love for scaring the daylights out of people!

Oh we love Summer! It is the best time when we move into the cottage; well maybe it's the best once we are fully moved in because the actual move in process is exhausting! From day trips, parties, concerts and appliance installation we had an amazing Summer! It really flew by uncharacteristically quick but it was still magical and filled with so many memory making moments!

Welcome to Season 3! After a brief break to enjoy an amazing and chaotic summer with our family and friends, we are back to share stories and laughter!

He's back! Gavin is back sharing his experiences, his thoughts, his childhood with some laughs and some tears. 

One of my favourite people is visiting the podcast to share some of his experiences of growing up gay in a small town. Gavin is my brother-in-law and one of my very best friends and I am so excited to have him here for a 2 part episode to share his experiences and offer support to anyone who may need it. 

*SPOILER ALERT* If you have not watched Adolescence on Netflix, you are officially warned that this podcast episode contains spoilers! This show is incredible and raw and sometimes difficult to watch but it covers some really important topics especially surrounding children with access to devices and social media. We are watching it with Cooper right now and we pause episodes so many times so we can chat, address a topic, see where he is at. We also have some very strict rules around phones and social media in our home and we are proud of that. What are some of the rules in your home when it comes to devices and social media?

In true Reynolds fashion, we don't let a holiday slip by without some amazing traditions! We love our traditions...big and small and have the most wonderful time during the holidays and Easter is no exception. With all our children home and our house bursting with love, fun and chaos, listen as we chat about our holidays! What are some of your family Easter traditions?

18. We have had 18 snow days so far this school year! It has been a pretty wild winter and since I am weather obsessed I don't mind it too much but it does mean that school busses are getting cancelled way more than normal! How are you feeling about it? We do not mind it at all! I love snow days! I love having the kids home! I love having those lazier days with them especially as we prepare for another Reynolds kid to leave for university. 

While in the presence of a double master, we are chatting about what we're watching on TV right now (and a bit from the past) and how we get involved with our kids through their TV shows. Do you let your kids control the remote? Do you sit and watch TV with them? Do you shove 16 chips in your mouth at once and also cannot stand the sound of a chip bag??

*SPOILER ALERT*
