Saturday Snap – Fuck Cancer

Kudos to my mother-in-law who “rang the bell” earlier this week after completing seven weeks of radiation and chemo therapy for cancer.

Also have to give special recognition to my wife and my father-in-law who went above and beyond with support through this difficult time – from miles on the road to 6am text messages.

Finally, some weird trivia – turns out that my mother-in-law had the same kind of cancer as Babe Ruth who was one of the first people to undergo the combination of radiation and chemotherapy still used to treat this kind of cancer today.

Friday Fun Link – @officialRPL Mother’s Day Video

This RPL Mother’s Day video is great!

It makes me excited for RPL Father’s Day video next month where various dads who work for the system try not to get emotional while reading passages from “Fight Club” to our children. 😉

 
Just kidding – this video is great and I know I can’t get through reading this story to my kids without tearing up so kudos to all my co-workers who participated!

Is “A Horse Is Loose In A Hospital” The Best Donald Trump Analogy So Far?

Fast forward to near the end of this clip for the joke…

Saturday Snap – Beautiful Cinco De Mayo Supper by @tropemxfood Hosted By @prairiecherry Over the Hill Orchard

Shea saw on social media that their was a cancellation for the first of the weekly “Supper in the Orchard” events at Over The Hill Orchards just outside Regina so snatched it up.

We’ve been out to Over The Hill Orchards once before for a Mother’s Day Brunch event but their restaurant area has undergone significant (and breathtaking) renovations since then.

This kick-off event for the season happened to feature Mexican cuisine for Cinco de Mayo which made it extra special as this year is our 15th Wedding Anniversary of being married in the Mayan Riviera.

Perfect night.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – SLA Conference Bonfire (May 2017) #CFLAFCAB2018

I guess it depends on how tonight’s parties go but I doubt there will be any SLA bonfires since the venue this year is Regina instead of Waskesiu. 😉
