I recently bought Pace the Lego “Creationary” game. Basically, this is Pictionary but instead of drawing different things, you try to build them with the various Lego pieces that are included with the game. I have to admit I was a bit surprised by one of the game cards (although Shea and I did have […]
Pace was playing Pac-Man on the iPad but wasn’t doing too well. He handed it to me, saying “You do it dad. I’m no good at these old-school games!” Later he made this Lego creation, explaining “It’s a Pac-Fish. That’s just like Pac-Man but a fish” which I thought was quite creative…
About to return to school tomorrow (and still awake when he should be sleeping), I’ve asked Pace to be a guest blogger tonight and tell me some of his favourite memories from his Christmas holidays… Seeing the *real* Santa for the third time in his life! Santa was in the neighbourhood checking if kids were […]
So why are both kids still up (and apparently making a break for it???)
I haven’t blogged for a few days as I got overwhelmed and busy with that “real life” thing as Shea’s folks and mine joined us from the 27th until the 29th to have a belated Christmas together. Here are a few numbers from the past week… 0 – number of times I’ve left the house […]
Only partly tongue-in-cheek, I often think that the best Christmas I ever had was when we were living in Calgary and Shea had to work on a 7am to 3pm shift on Christmas Day, leaving me all alone for the day. It sounds sad but it turned out to be a wonderful, relaxing, enjoyable day. […]
Sasha has started crawling (there’s an unfortunate face plant at the end of this clip so you may want to stop early if you’re squeamish.) While Sasha has just started being mobile, Pace is pretty much the definition of constant motion…
I’ve been uploading videos to YouTube since 2006. This was the year we got our first digital camera. It was also the year when I was doing my Masters degree so I was very interested in all kinds of online services including online broadcasting. We were also living far from home so it was […]
I couldn’t decide whether to write a blog post before or after the game. So I’m splitting the difference somewhat and writing this near the start of the fourth quarter with the Riders leading 31-16. The Riders dominated the first half but as we saw in 2009, you have to play 60 minutes or else […]
Just a few shots of our family enjoying the Riders over the past few years…
