Saturday Snap – New Year’s Day Waterslide Chase

We booked rooms at the local Travelodge for New Year’s Eve intending to do some watersliding with Shea’s parents, her aunt and Pace’s cousin.  That’s what we did although when we went down to the pool and the pool attendant informed us that New Year’s Eve is their busiest day of the year in the […]

It’s A Girl!

A pretty awesome Christmas gift! Shea and I got to find out the sex of our baby at the same time our parents did earlier tonight. During our last ultrasound, we got the tech to put the sex of the baby in a sealed envelope then handed that to a trusted friend along with a […]

Five Differences Between Christmas Concerts For Pace and The Elementary School-Aged Me

Pace had his first Christmas concert (actually “concerts” – see #5 below) today. That got me thinking about the ways they’ve changed since I was a kid. [Edit: Someone pointed out many of the differences are as much about rural vs. urban approaches as generational which is probably true.] First off, when I was a […]

Saturday Snap – A Week In The Life

A few shots from the past week… Pace and I made Lego tree ornaments… Relaxing with mommy and the baby… New shelving arrives for the Outreach Unit… Playing musical chairs at Philippine-Canadian Friends & Family Holiday Party… Spot Trent Wotherspoon’s critical error in latest mail out (Hint: top right of envelope!) 😉 We see this […]

How Do You Make Santa Real For Your Kids?

This is a question I posed to MetaFilter last year and am now revisiting this year.  (I was reminded of that question after seeing a recent one about creating Christmas traditions for your nieces and nephews .)

Saturday Snap – Other Than “Being Canadian” and Also “Being Five”, Pace is Totally Voting Obama!

This is the CBC story from the Regina Coronation Park & Democrats Abroad US Election viewing party last Tuesday.  (You can also play “spot the Jason” and “spot the Shea” in the background of a few shots.)
