Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Ten Kids in a Tub

One of my favourite pictures at our family cottage is this Anne Geddes picture. My dad has nine siblings and since this photo showed ten babies, all ten of the kids in his family were able to sign their name, in birth order, from left to right. I’ve said it before but it always amazes […]

Unfortunately, I Know I’d Be Easier To Catch Than The Road Runner!

I make the occasional run out to Indian Head and around the Qu’Appelle Valley and after my parents won a few free oil changes at the local car dealership and offered me one, I had an excuse for another road trip yesterday after I got the kids off to school. The free oil change turned […]

Saturday Snap – Building A Playground Is Building A Community

With our respective schedules, Shea and I end up with one Friday off together each month. Yesterday, we did some errands in the morning then went over to our kids’ school where, after years of fundraising by the Student Community Council, they were finally about to build a new playground structure with the help of […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Going South (February 2015)

Our family on a plane heading to the Dominican Republic in 2015 (and part of how we afford our holidays? I still wear that same t-shirt four years later!) 😉

Saturday Snap – Our Summer Family

When we were at Echo a few years back, we met, befriended and hung out with (and got hungover with!) a few other young couples. (I know “young” is relative for me these days but Shea’s a lot younger than me so I follow her lead on that!) When we got our seasonal site at […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – When My Football Jacket Still Fit (October 2011)

This photo was taken while going through some old clothes at my parent’s house in October 2011 (which happened to be a point in life where a football jacket I bought a two decades earlier sometime around 1991 still fit – something that’s definitely no longer the case!)

Saturday Snap – A Glimpse of Our Future?

Shea and I really enjoying the camping lifestyle and, although it’s still a few years away, have begun talking about what it would be like to downsize our house and buy a small camper/motorhome/camper van and just travel around in that once we retire. We got a glimpse of what it might be like this […]
