Between Shea and I, we camped a personal record of 62 nights this summer from May to September including two 2-week stretches, every weekend, every long weekend and probably a few extra nights we managed to squeeze in here and there. Here’s some highlights from the month we just wrapped up… 1. Cornhole Tournament My […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Skype Stitches (September 2013)

Pace was doing video calls long before it was cool – in this case, we needed a video call to show off his first stitches to Grandma and Grandpa.

2021 Back to School

Back to school was a bit different this year as the kids were going in two different directions at two different times. Pace heads to his first year of high school (which also means an earlier start time – 8:30am) while Sasha is on to grade three (with the usual start time of 8:53am for […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – What Do I Want To Be When I Grow Up? (June 2013)

I took Pace to a wrestling show last weekend but it wasn’t his first – we’d gone to one or two over the years and though he never became as obsessed as I was at his age, he did obviously watch wrestling on TV with me occasionally given what he told his kindergarten teacher he […]

A Few Highlights From CWE “Cruel Summer” Wrestling Show in Weyburn, SK

Took Pace and his cousin to a wrestling show in Weyburn last Saturday and it was a blast bringing back fond memories of my dad taking me to a handful of Stampede Wrestling shows in Regina and Fort Qu’Appelle and even a few shows in my own hometown of Indian Head. A few highlights… 1. […]

Back From Camping (and Five “Redneck” Moments)

Eternal optimist that I am, I keep saying that Covid has had some unintended benefits. One of those is because we couldn’t do a winter trip this year, it also meant we had more holidays to take in the summer – two weeks in July but also two weeks in August which we don’t usually […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – RPL Photo Shoot (June 2011)

Feel like I might’ve posted a pic from this photo shoot before but still love it (and believe it or not, I still have that shirt though it’s migrated from “suitable for a casual photo shoot” to “wear it camping while sitting around the fire, may have a few burn holes”!)

Music Monday – “Every night, I say a prayer/In the hopes that’s there’s a Heaven.”

I don’t think Pace has a theme song for his grade eight grad today. In my hometown, I went to elementary school until grade six then to high school in grade seven and I didn’t have a grade six grad theme song either (that I remember.). But it’s got me thinking back to my own […]
