Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Hammy Warhol (April 2012)

Saturday Snap – Aunt Sandi Returns!

It was a somewhat spontaneous decision but my aunt, who already visits from BC and stays with us for about a month every spring, decided to come back and will be staying with us for a few weeks again.  

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Keeping Them in Stitches (September 2013)

Pace ran into a tree and had to get stitches then, nearly a decade before Covid, used Skype to video chat with Grandpa and Grandma to show the war wounds…

Friday Fun Link – “Is This Real Life?”

Pace had four wisdom teeth removed early on Friday morning.  When he got home, I was reminded of this clip – one of the original viral videos of the YouTube age:

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – 20 Years of Seasonal Camping (2003-2023)

Back from our most recent camping stretch but bittersweet as my inlaws decided to pull the pin after twenty years of seasonal camping. (This has been coming for awhile but still tough that the moment finally arrived.) So much of our week away was watching as they listed (and sold) their camper, packed up everything […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Bellagio Fountains (March 2009)

May have told this story before but my parents won a trip for two to Las Vegas and it happened to coincide with a week that Shea and I had booked off. So after a bit of chaos to get Pace (two going on three) a rush passport, we booked and ended up going along. […]

10 Reasons We’ve Ended Up With The World’s Most Bougie Dog

We got the first delivery of a monthly subscription of dog toys & treats called “Woof Pack” today and as I thought about how neither myself (“Beer of the Month“) nor Shea (“Wine of the Month“) or Pace (“Soda Pop of the Month“) or Sasha (“Japanese Snack of the Month“) have ever had a subscription […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – The Last of Us Isn’t Just A Popular TV Show (Oct, Dec 2022, Apr 2023)

Pace in early October… (Shockingly?) Shea and I didn’t test positive until December…though having a teen who pretty much self-isolates 99% of the time anyhow did help keep the rest of us safe when Pace was the first positive in the family.) And even though she ended up getting the PCR test twice in the […]
