Band of Brothers
One of the things that Campbell was most excited about as he entered grade 7 was learning to play an instrument other than the recorder or ukulele. He had his heart set on the alto saxophone. Last Friday he brought one home. I Instagrammed a video of Cam playing Hot Cross Buns and my poor dog … [Read more...]
APP OF THE WEEK: Indigo
The other day I found myself waiting for one of the kids at while they were in doing one of their extra curricular programs.

The LEGO Movie Trailer
My 10 year-old son is obsessed with LEGO. It's been going on for years and he still can't shake it. It's been amazing to watch him build some crazy and imaginative stuff.

Edith Head Honoured With A Google Logo
When I logged on to Google this morning, I got a wonderful surprise. There, right at the top of the page, the minimalist Google logo was replaced (as it sometimes is - on special occasions) by something else. Looking back at me was a tiny little woman, dressed in a smart outfit complete with pearls … [Read more...]

Is your kid a rock star?
There is always music going on in my house. When you marry a Cape Bretoner that sort of thing tends to happen. I always heard about “Kitchen Parties” and now we have one every weekend. I gotta say, I love it. It typically gets started when my wife is on the fiddle and I’m on the booze. Fortunately, … [Read more...]
