Movie Night With My Kids

“Are These The Good Times, Dad?”

So after spending a few hours at the lake yesterday, my dad, Pace and I went back into town.  Dad bought a few things he needed at the local co-op including some candy as a treat for Pace. As we drove away, the sun was shining.  Someone had a fishing shack painted with The Punisher […]

Saturday Snap – Sasha’s First Visit To The Family Cottage

Saturday Snap – “May the Fourth Be With You” Nerd Family Edition

A few different shots in honour of perhaps the nerdiest day of the year: I’m not a programmer but via a handy online interface, was able to create my own watchface for my “21st Century Calculator Watch“.  There’s also a web site with lots of other cool watchfaces others with greater skills than my own […]

10 Things I Love About Sasha

Sitting here with the new baby curled up, sleeping on my chest in the middle of the night (as she’s done many times in the past two weeks), I thought I should make a list… TEN THINGS I LOVE ABOUT OUR NEW BABY That amazing new baby smell! How her little chest moves in and […]
