Five Hits on National Family Literacy Day

It was National Family Literacy Day today and nothing starts your day off like doing the hokey pokey to tie in to this year’s theme of “Play for Literacy’.  Good stuff – I joked with one co-worker that we could do it everyday, sort of the RPL version of the Wal-Mart Cheer.   Another co-worker […]

Saturday Snap – Kid’s Eye View of Regina Airport

Kid’s Eye View of Regina Airport, originally uploaded by headtale. Pace loves taking photos so I occasionally hand him the iPhone and let him at it. Always interesting to see what he decides to take pictures of and the perspective he brings. We took my parents to the airport on Friday afternoon so this is […]

Saturday Snap – The Nerd Is Strong With This One

Saturday Snap – 1988 Computer Specs, originally uploaded by headtale. My mom was cleaning out some papers at home and found the original spec sheet/packing slip for the first computer our family ever bought in 1988 which is when I was in grade nine.

Going Viral

Toboggan Bowling?

With some beautiful weather today, we decided to head to the elementary school near our house to do some tobogganing this afternoon.  There’s a small hill behind the school which is “Pace-sized” – except some enterprising folks had seen fit to create an ice run on the hill, build a jump at the bottom of […]

Saturday Snap – Ninja Bowling?

It’s hard to see but this is a clip of Pace playing a bowling game on the Kinect.  (Of course, from his actions, you’d think the game was a Mortal Kombat!)
