Saturday Snap – Gone Camping!

We’re off camping for the next couple weeks so posts will likely be few and far between…unless the kids end up building a really cute fort out of firewood and I have to post a picture! đŸ˜‰

Throwback Thursday – Our New rPod182G Camper (August 2014)

Hard to believe we’ve already had our camper for three summers (well, two and a bit since we bought it near the end of the season three years ago.) We’ve had a lot of fun with it so far, travelled to parks across the province and after a quick trip out to Rowan’s Ravine last weekend […]

Music Monday – “Yes, we’re going to a party-party/Yes, we’re going to a party-party”

I’ve had this blog for ten years and my actual birthday has fallen on a “Music Monday” only once in 2009 when I naturally posted…“Paranoid Android” by Radiohead? Maybe I did this because only a couple years earlier in 2009, I fudged things and posted “Birthday” by the Beatles on the Monday before my birthday […]

Music Monday – “Time to say goodbye to countries I never saw and shared with you, now, yes, I shall experience them.”

Happy Fourth of July! Fireworks filmed from a drone – very cool… “Con te partirĂ² (Time To Say Goodbye)” – Andrea Bocelli

Saturday Snap – Canada Day Picnic

Enjoying the Canada Day celebrations at Wascana Park…

Friday Fun Link – How To Be Canadian

Happy Canada Day, eh?

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Crashing Waves at the Witches Brew, Hanauma Bay, Oahu, Hawaii (Winter 2002)

This is a great shot (though possibly not the smartest thing to do) of Shea and I from our first trip to Hawaii…

Happy 9th Birthday Pace!

Pace had his (real) birthday last Thursday on May 19 and it’s been a crazy, fun-filled weekend since then. (Speaking of “crazy, fun-filled weekends”, Shea and I live in dread of having a kid who has his birthday on May long weekend when he gets older!) đŸ˜‰ On his actual birthday, we had a nice […]

Some Nerd Tracked His Drinking For A Full Year

And no, it wasn’t me! But it’s got me thinking about what a full project this could be!   (This guy was more focused on consumption but I think it’d be more interesting/useful to track what you drink as as well as how much!) (via r/dataisbeautiful)

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Vegas Baby (March 2009)

My parents won a trip to Vegas back in 2009 which happened to coincide with a week Shea and I had booked off but planned to just spend at home as a staycation. But when we heard their news, we decided it was karma and we had to go with them.  So, along with our […]
