Saturday Snap – Old-Fashioned #Saskatchewan Saturday Night

My daughter doesn’t realise that when her dad was growing up, before the Internet and the 500-channel universe, TV bingo and polka parties were literally the only forms of entertainment available (no wonder I became such a big reader!) 😉 We re-created a small-town Saskatchewan Saturday night at our house tonight: Playing (fake) TV Bingo… […]

Saturday Snap – 90% of the Reason We Moved?

Okay, maybe not 90% of the reason but having a two car attached garage is pretty nice after fifteen years of parking on the street, scraping windows all winter and not one but two cars totalled while parked on the street (one kid who hit my car fessed up, one was a hit & run […]

Saturday Snap – Panda, Panda, Panda!

After our trip to the Calgary Zoo this summer, we had a bit of a panda-theme for some of the kids’ gifts including both a stuffed panda and a panda hat for Sasha. Pretty cute until Pace pointed out that this is actually looks like a living panda has put the skull of another dead […]

Saturday Snap – Elfis?

Last year, we gave in and bought a stupid Dollar Store “Elf on a Shelf” rip-off to move around every night for Sasha. Turned out it was actually kind of fun coming up with scenarios and jokes for the little guy and I might’ve got more enjoyment out of it than she did! This year, […]

Saturday Snap – Coming Together Nicely

Moving day is done, lots of unpacking still to do but the new house is starting to come together! (Hard to believe those two black couches are ones we bought from The Brick over fifteen years ago when we lived in Calgary.  They’re still in great shape to this day!)

Saturday Snap – Settling In…

We likely won’t be permanently into our new house until later next week but that doesn’t mean, now that we have possession, we can’t start getting settled in!

Saturday Snap – Is Edo My Favourite Food Court Choice?

Probably.  This seriously doesn’t even look like fast food as far as I’m concerned:

Saturday Snap – A Strange (and Strangely Exciting?) Raffle Prize at @officialRPL Staff Day

I was a bit surprised to see what I thought was some sort of sex lotion in one of the raffle baskets I ended up winning at the RPL Staff Development Day yesterday. Fortunately (?), my reading comprehension isn’t so great for a librarian and my wife seemed a bit too relieved to inform me […]
