Saturday Snap – Uno

Had a pretty wet weekend at the campsite (including a bunch of folding chairs and other stuff getting drenched when a storm blew up unexpectly when we ran to town Saturday afternoon for groceries) But the rain also held off at different points allowing us to have a couple nice fires and even some fireside […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Happy 15th Birthday Pace!

Hard to believe this video montage I made of pics from when Pace was born is from fifteen years ago! (Also hard to believe it’s my most viewed video of all-time with nearly 50,000 views but I attribute that more to using a Loretta Lynn song than people being interested in pics of Baby Pace!) […]

Welcome Back, Aunt Sandi!

For over a decade, my Aunt Sandi has come from Kelowna to visit us for about a month every spring. Obviously, that hasn’t been possible for the last couple years and we debated back and forth whether to do it this year since she has some pretty serious respiratory issues and although our entire immediate […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Our Little Roughneck (August 2011)

I suspect I’m not the only person in Saskatchewan who has a complicated relationship with the oil and gas industry. I think even people who work in the industry and/or who are pro-oil know that there are environmental impacts (though they will argue about the extent of those impacts – anywhere from “oh, it’s just […]

Saturday Snap – First Day At The Campground This Year!

Went out to clean up our seasonal campsite and do some work to get it ready before we move in our camper next week. There were forecasts for rain and even thunder showers so we had debated whether to even go or not.  But other than a couple sprinkles, no rain all day – just […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Smile! (May 2014)

I love watching my kids grow but I miss when they were small too…mostly because you could dress them in ways that were as entertaining to you as a parent as anything!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Puddle Jumping (April 2013)

Our old house used to get a huge lake in front of it once all the snow melted.  At least it gave us a good spot to go puddle jumping…

Another (Minor) Covid Milestone?

I had been in Pace’s high school for various reasons over the years – through my work, for political events, when the kids’ elementary school Winter Concerts were held in the much larger high school auditorium. Of course high school is a bit different than elementary school but still feels strange that tonight was the […]

Saturday Snap – Kids (and Dad?) Having Nothing But Fun

Sasha had her last swim class Friday night which usually means fun and games since the learning is done and the report cards are finished. Unfortunately, the instructor wasn’t able to get the water carpet hooked up properly so I leapt (crouched?) into action to hold it in place while the kids played on it… […]
