Right now I’m supposed to be high in the air flying across the country. Having my boys experience looking out the window and down at the clouds. The force of takeoff as you rush along the runway and then feel the wheels come off the ground. Watching the trees as they get smaller and smaller.Continue reading “Not so fast”

Noah’s first day of work
Today I’m feeling proud as a father. Yesterday Noah has his first real full day of work. A couple of summers ago we hired my friends son, who had started a landscaping business, to replace our front lawn. Since we put it in it was terrible. The hydro seed never took and it was mostlyContinue reading “Noah’s first day of work”
After the storm
We had a pretty good snow storm over the weekend. Everything was canceled including school today. This afternoon things cleared up a bit so Ezra and I got out to play some. Running around the snow, making snow angels, some shovelling, and a bit of a tunnel / fort. It did us both good toContinue reading “After the storm”
Starting back
Tomorrow morning I’m starting back to work after the second part of an extended parental leave. I’m so thankful that I was able to have this time to spend with my family. Throughout the leave my emotions ran across the spectrum really. Especially in the beginning it was all great. Jen was still off onContinue reading “Starting back”
Sunset at the shore
One of the things we do with our friends and family that I love is having evening fires at the shore. We have a great group so the company is good no matter what and being at the shore it’s always so peaceful. Put those good people together at the shore and it just makesContinue reading “Sunset at the shore”
18 years
As a family we have a lot of celebrations throughout the autumn, we added one more this year, and then right into the winter holidays. Out of all those special days today, January 3rd, is my favourite. Today is the 18th anniversary from when Jen and I were married. We never have big celebrations orContinue reading “18 years”
Ezra
Jen told me from early on in our relationship that she would like to have ten children, while I told her I’d be happy with three. Like most things in our life we compromised, though she keeps getting closer to her number 😃 This past year has been yet another of ups, downs, and surprises,Continue reading “Ezra”
Long exposure iPhone photos
This isn’t anything new, but it was new to me. In fact I believe it has been around since iOS11 which came out about three years ago. Lately we’ve been doing lots of trails and that involve water of some sort and I’ve found myself wishing that I took our dSLR camera with us soContinue reading “Long exposure iPhone photos”
Meet Oakley
We added a new family member recently, meet Oakley! Oakley is 9 weeks old and is a Golden Retriever / Yellow Lab mix. He is a very good boy. I’ve been hesitant on getting a dog for many years. Caile has been steadfast for all these years wanting one. She never asks for anything butContinue reading “Meet Oakley”
Baxters Harbour
We went to check out Baxters Harbour today. It has been a long time since I’d been there and most of the family hadn’t been there before. It’s beautiful and really cool with the waterfall and the rock formations. Things can change quite a bit depending on the tide but being here at low tideContinue reading “Baxters Harbour”
