Saturday Snap – What a Crappy Game!

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 […]

Saturday Snap – A Sleeping Angel

Pace’s Five Favourite Memories From His Christmas Holidays

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 […]

Saturday Snap – Sasha Checks Out Daddy’s Library

Sasha loved crawling around the library when Shea, Pace and her came to see the magician that was appearing on Friday afternoon.   The children’s area is fun, mostly because it has things that look like cords that you can actually play with (unlike the real cords at home which always get a frantic response […]

I Thought Last Night Was When We Were Supposed to Stay Up Until Midnight, Not Tonight!

So why are both kids still up (and apparently making a break for it???)

Christmas 2013: By The Numbers

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 […]

The Best Christmas Ever?

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. […]

Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 6 – Are Religions Unfair To Women?

It’s a long documentary so let’s just say the short answer (at least in my view) is: yes! Given what day it is today, I can’t help but think about the fourteen female engineering students killed twenty-four years ago today. They weren’t murdered for religious reasons. But as part of my thoughts on this sad day […]

Saturday Snap – Studies in Motion

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…

An Analysis of My YouTube Channel

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 […]
