Since I chose swimming with turtles on Anini Beach on the north shore of Kauai as the highlight of 2012 for me (see question #40), I thought I’d mark the one year anniversary of our departure on that trip with a video of that memorable moment…

Saturday Snap – New Year’s Day Waterslide Chase
We booked rooms at the local Travelodge for New Year’s Eve intending to do some watersliding with Shea’s parents, her aunt and Pace’s cousin. That’s what we did although when we went down to the pool and the pool attendant informed us that New Year’s Eve is their busiest day of the year in the […]
2012 “End-of-Year Questions” Meme: Hawaiian Paradise, Kindergarten Kid, and “It’s (Going To Be) A Girl”
1. What did you do this year that you’d never done before? Saw a photo of the brain of someone I know!

Friday Fun Link – Funniest Wedding Grand Entrance Video Ever
There’s a whole sub-genre on YouTube of creative, funny, artistic wedding grand entrance & first dance videos. The one below is right up there in all three categories and bonus, it was shot by a couple in Lethbridge… Their proposal video is pretty good too, evoking one of my favourites of that kind, the World’s […]
How Do You Make Santa Real For Your Kids?
This is a question I posed to MetaFilter last year and am now revisiting this year. (I was reminded of that question after seeing a recent one about creating Christmas traditions for your nieces and nephews .) This is, by far, the most favourited comment in that thread: When I was four, my parents totally rigged […]
Friday Fun Link – Love Everybody
A pretty heart-warming video, even if I’ve been trained to be cynical enough about videos like this that at the end I thought it was probably a viral video for Coke! (Turns out it’s a charitable foundation called Love Everybody). (via LyinRPL)
