WWE Makes History At Wrestlemania 35

Tonight’s Wrestlemania 35 was the first to have a main event featuring women wrestlers – Ronda Rousey who was a former star in UFC, Charlotte Flair who is the daughter of one of the greatest wrestlers of all-time and an accomplished athlete in her own right, and Becky Lynch who is the ultimate underdog but […]

MiniPopKids on Friday Night, Cheer Recital on Sunday Afternoon

This girl is destined to be a star! 😉

Saturday Snap – More My Speed?

Our neighbour built a small ramp to help him move a new appliance in his house. Once he was finished with it, he brought it over and offered it to Pace (but I think he secretly meant it for me in case I ever decide to do a bike jump again!) And speaking of the […]

Saturday Snap – I Wonder What Her Roller Derby Name Is?

Unbroken: The Snowboard Life of Mark McMorris

As the big air competition begins in the Olympics tonight, this is a pretty amazing documentary. Fun friend-of-a-friend name-dropping trivia: The filmmaker is Mark McMorris’ manager who is married to a girl that I used to babysit.  My parents even attended their wedding but my invitation got lost in the mail. 😉

It took “Brad from Swift Current” TWELVE full minutes before […]

Saturday Snap – Hanging Around at Final Parkour Class

Pace had his final parkour class for this session last Wednesday.  Just another day hanging from the rafters…

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Sk8r Boi (April 2012)

Pace is really into skateboarding now so it was interesting to come across this picture from when he was five which is probably the first time he ever tried out a skateboard. This was taken in the backyard of one of Shea’s friends whose husband is also really into skateboarding and other extreme sports.

Friday Fun Link – Southpaw Regional Wrestling

WWE has released some short web-only videos of a fictional 1980’s wrestling promotion, Southpaw Regional Wrestling. Current superstars play up the stereotypical characters and tropes of that era of wrestling with love, affection and great humour – which makes this one of the most entertaining things WWE has done in the past year! Here’s a […]
