Friday Fun Link – The “Scare Mommy” Game

Sasha’s current favourite game evolved out of the unfortunate fact that she currently thinks the noise all animals make is “roar”. “What does a kitty say?” Roar! “What does a horsie say?” Roar! “What does a froggie say?” Roar! And so on… Since she liked roaring so much, I started acting scared when she did it […]

Music Monday – “We arrived in December and London was cold/We stayed in the bars along Charing Cross Road/We never saw nothin’ but brass taps and oak/Kept a shine on the bar with the sleeves of our coats”

Heard the very sad news today that John Mann of Spirit of the West has been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimers. Like many people who were college-aged in the 1990’s, Spirit of the West was basically a soundtrack to my life back then. When I went to England on exchange in 1995, the lyric I quoted in […]

Our New rPod 182g Ultralight RV

Shea and I had a pretty expensive visit to Indian Head earlier this summer. We went to the splash park and happened to bump into some friends who were back from Calgary for a few days. In the course of talking to them, they told us they’d just bought a new rPod camper. We’d seen one […]

Pace’s First Day of Grade Two

Hard to believe Pace is in Grade Two already. As will probably become an annual tradition on the first day of school, I went back and watched the video I made of his first day in Kindergarten. I’ve always been somebody who loves taking pictures and videos and documenting things and that day, two short […]
