Some people go every year, some people go whenever they can afford it, and some people will never go to one, thinking they’re fake, inauthentic holidays. Shea and I are in that middle category – though we don’t go every year [edit: I lied – as of January 2020, we’ve been five years in a […]
Michael Franti used this video to propose to his girlfriend who happens to be a nurse from Saskatchewan which Shea informs me are two of the best qualities a woman can have! đŸ˜‰
Didn’t post this weekend as I was away at my brother-in-law’s wedding… “Thinking Out Loud” – Ed Sheeran
So tonight was fairly routine at the start… Pace has his snack while watching videos on the iPad. Shea reads Sasha a story and then nurses her before putting her to bed. Sasha immediately starts crying in her crib as she’s been doing lately. I go check on Sasha and she’s got a wet diaper […]

One of our stops was an area called Candy Cane Lane where the residents of the Normanview community are encouraged to decorate their homes for Christmas. Â One […]
Shea and I kinda did when you look at the design of the Valhalla View condos we bought a unit in while we lived in Calgary in the early 2000’s. It was a pretty cool, executive-style condo in an awesome location close to “The Red Mile“. Ours was a unit on the left side of […]
