Neighbors and friends describe the family as hospitable, generous, and hard-working – how could they be targets?

Baseball game, Birthday and Brothers having fun!; Feature article

April 12.2024

It was an exciting day in many ways and also little painful!

Let get started..

It was birthday and the day was little overcast but I didn't care I was going to celebrate with going to Toronto Blue Jays game with my brother!  The only thing that played little damper was I had a left knee inflamation that made walking painful.

I got there few hours early to get in line in order to get the Jose Berrious Gold Glove Bobblehead!  my brother showed up around 5:30pm and we had a great chat with  mother and son in from Bowmanville for the game.

We got in and got our two bobble heads!  Then proceeded to walk through the stadium to see the new renovations had been done over the last few years, New seats, new patios in the 500 level, amazing seats in the outfield and news seats from a ground level.

Jumbotron was bigger with lots of videos and  lots of cool stats!

Unfortunately the the Jays lots 12-4 this night.

Took a break from Social Media for a few months: Feature Article

 




Took a break from social media for 45 days...

 Why?

 A few reasons.

 Need a break for posting, sharing and more about being present with people and building relationships.

We spend so much time on our devices, on computer work and hope that in my opinion distracts us from important parts of our lives

Just recently Minister of Education will be banning cell phone use in the classroom for high school students.. good luck with that!

This shows how connected we are with our devices, smart watches on other electronic devices.

Look forward to sharing movies review, event reviews and special events in moderation

Thank you
