Pace was into personal protective gear long before the current COVID-19 outbreak. (Of course, this was how he suited up to load dirty dishes into the dishwasher at our old house so a lot lower health risk I would hope!)
Obviously, the pandemic is a shitty situation all around – people are losing their jobs, businesses are shutting down, our entire world has been disrupted in ways large and small. Still, I’m an optimist at heart and I can’t help but think of a few ways that I’m personally fortunate, even in the midst of […]
We just returned from a week at the Crown Paradise Club Cancun so I wanted to write a review of our resort while the memories are still fresh. HOW WE ENDED UP CHOOSING THE CROWN PARADISE CANCUN IN THE FIRST PLACE Having bought a house in the late fall, our streak of visiting an all-inclusive […]
It’s sort of funny to think about how we’ve flown to the Cancun International Airport a handful of times over the past few years and it’s always the same WestJet flight we take every single year since we go the same week leaving and returning on the same day.
Maybe not quite as nice as the all-inclusive Mexican resort I posted yesterday. But our “staycation” at the recently re-branded Atlas Hotel & Waterpark in Regina with both sets of grandparents was quite a fun way to spend Saturday night!
If it looks like we have a lot of gifts under the tree, you have to remember that in the month of December, I basically wrap anything I would’ve bought anyhow – dish soap, shampoo, the empty box for the slippers I bought because I needed them in September – and use those things to […]
Shea had a very long day and Pace is both pretty introverted and a stereotypical teenager so it’s hard to get him out of the house at the best of times. That meant Sasha and I had a daddy-daughter date to The Artesian’s “Holiday Sing-a-long” Thursday night which was great fun.
Feeling sentimental knowing we won’t have Christmas here this year, I was looking through my oldest photos for a picture of one of our first Christmases at our current house. Unfortunately, since we bought our house in 2004 and our first digital camera in 2006 (and all our old-school photo albums are in boxes somewhere), […]
Our realtor had a photographer come to our old/current house today to take photos in preparation for our house being listed later this week and it brought home, perhaps more than any other step, that soon, the house we’ve called a home for fifteen years will likely soon no longer be ours. As excited as […]
I think I’ve probably posted this old viral video before but as we prep to move into our new house, it felt appropriate for a few reasons – the title “Home” obviously but also for how it reminds me of Sasha who’s increasingly into music and has taken to making up her own songs to […]
