Kellogg's = Geneus!

Having recently sustained fairly serious knee lacerations due to some new “smaller than Mega-Blocks but not as small as regular Lego” Legos that Pace got for this birthday, this story has a particular resonance for me right now in terms of the danger potential of Lego and its myriad affiliated products.

Calgary Trip Photo Album

Shea's got a few photos from our Calgary trip up on Flickr if you're interested.  If not, this MetaFilter thread about the new M. Night Shamaladingdong movie, “The Happening”, is pretty entertaining.

Pace Having Fun in Calgary

We happened to be downtown on the Sunday of the Gay Pride Parade in Calgary so spent some time at Olympic Plaza enjoying the music, the vendors and the atmosphere in general.  In a completely unrelated story, Pace was later photographed wearing this hat…

Pace's First Birthday!

After waking to ominous grey skies, we made the call to keep the party at Nickle Lake rather than moving into Grandpa and Grandma Thompson's house in Weyburn for Pace's birthday.  We were rewarded with a beautiful, sunny (if a bit windy) day with a great turnout for the party, delicious burgers and hot dogs […]
