Generational Differences Chart

I’m always interested in the concept of generational differences which has come up a couple times recently – after Shea attended a workshop on reaching out to young people in the workplace and then during a conversation in my workplace where a few of us “oldies” had fun explaining what life was like in the time of cassette […]

An Unintentional Trip Down Memory Lane

Contemplating a Luther College Dorm Room Shea and I rarely take three weeks’ vacation at a time – we usually spread our holiday allotment out through the year – some in the winter (especially in years when we can afford a hot holiday), a week or two in summer (sometimes together and sometimes not) and then […]

Saturday Snap – More From The Top of Regina

Here’s a few more shots from the TD Bank reception which we attended with my mom and dad on top of Regina’s new Hill Tower III Friday evening. Great three piece jazz band for entertainment… Panoramic of the view facing south… Wearing Rider green to a TD Bank reception serves a double purpose!

Friday Fun Link – The Tallest Building Between Winnipeg and Calgary

…and we were hanging out on top of it earlier tonight (though I know it’s hard to tell how high we are from the angle of this photo!)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – There’s A Reason I Don’t Use Print Phonebooks Anymore

I haven’t used a regular phonebook in maybe a decade?  But we still get one on our door every year and Shea happened to notice we’re still listed – which is weird since we also dropped our landline and only use our cells. Turns out the phone book still lists our phone number and address […]

Saturday Snap – Guess Who We Saw in The Lobby of the #yxe Bessborough Hotel This Afternoon?

Some random dude wearing a cowboy hat.  But wouldn’t it have been cool if we happened to see Garth Brooks? 😉

Friday Fun Link – Getting Excited For @GarthBrooks in Saskatoon! #yxe

I’m not going to post a picture of Sasha running around the house naked in a cowboy hat but I can tell you that she’s not even going to the concert yet her parents’ excitement must be contagious. Mommy was singing and dancing in the kitchen, daddy dug through his old CDs to find the various […]

Sometimes it hits me at random moments…

…how amazing it is that Shea gave birth to two beautiful, amazing babies. Today was one of those days so I just wanted to share!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Shea and Her Grandma (Early 1980’s)

There needs to be a new word for when you take a digital photo of an old print photo.  Anyhow, Shea recently took a snap of this picture to mark the 15 year anniversary of her Grandma’s passing. Most people say that Sasha looks like me but she’s definitely got a lot of her mom in […]

Music Monday – “Our house had the biggest patio/Our house had all the summer shade/We had patio lanterns “

Really enjoying our back yard patio as Shea and I continue to make more and more improvements – the most recent is the addition of some lattice and and a new gate… Now we only need a theme song for our new favourite place! 😉 “Patio Lanterns” – Kim Mitchell
