The last day of school is the perfect day for Throwback Thursday. I love how Sasha’s face changes from resignation and uncertainty in the first picture to utter joy and relief in the second. (And even Pace’s near-teenaged face has a hint of smile to it today compared to September as well!) 🙂
When I did my ten part series on the things that have been major factors in making me who I am today, I thought about finishing with a post about a few things – liberals tend to think in terms of “privilege”, right wingers might think of it as “hard work”, the superstitious might just […]
The rest of the family gets a trip to the museum and ice cream; I get to talk to people about chemtrails, flat earth theories, and how Disney hides secret messages in their movies, all while being #SaturdayLibrarian. 😉
Sasha and I enjoying the Raptors’ championship win on Friday night with ~20,000 of our closest friends! 😉
Shea and Sasha went out to our seasonal site this weekend while I stayed in the city to work and Pace stuck around to play video games visit his Aunt Sandi who is visiting from Kelowna. Shea sent me this picture and said Sasha told her it was the best camping ever because “daddy isn’t […]

Sasha recently presented us with this piece of artwork which required us to very delicately sit her down and have her talk us through some of her artistic choices. The blue hair, the dangly gold earrings, the check-mark smile and oh, by the way, what is that picture on the front of the shirt? “It’s […]
Her actual birthday is on Tuesday but we had great fun at Sasha’s “bowling birthday” today. (And as an aside, as someone who dabbles in creative writing, I love studying the ebbs and flows in the popularity of names from generation to generation.)
We didn’t actually tell her that but Sasha’s been doing it old school today – being outside between our yard and the neighbours’ playing with their kids all day. This is a pic I took over the fence. I wonder if they’re making plans for havoc during Sasha’s birthday party tomorrow???
After running Grandpa and Grandma out to Indian Head after they returned from a month in Australia/New Zealand, Sasha and I decided to have a little adventure of our own by taking the scenic route home. We stopped at the family farm where Sasha got to drive down the lane (watch the road!!!)… …meet a […]
