Dad's Birthday Party ~ Feels Like Family
July 26, 2011
I totally did not plan to blog my Dad's birthday but when I saw the photos and the story they told I just couldn't help myself. When my parents first moved to Nova Scotia four summers ago they knew no one. Having lived their whole adult lives (and in my ...
Weekend Linky
July 23, 2011
It's Saturday morning and we are busy preparing for my Dad's birthday party tonight. Food, lots of it. Friends, lots of those also. And blessedly, this year, family too. In the midst of the normal pressure points of three generations living together under one roof - kids with their mess ...
Feeling Vibrant and "In Between"

The internet is a pretty amazing place. One of my favorite parts of being active in the online world is the immense personal growth I have experienced as a result of my web interactions. Blog posts, lengthier articles (I don't read too many of those), videos, podcasts. A wealth of ...
The Boy Has a Blog ~ Introducing Pictograph
July 12, 2011
It was a busy weekend. Yet again. (pst... slow weekend do come visit some time). Sunday we went hiking and visited Damien's cousin's family. Saturday was decidedly not outdoors, but a day spent on our computers busy launching a little family project. Or rather, Damien spent a lot of time ...
