  • Happy father’s day to our dads - who are, in many ways very different, but in many ways, very much the same. To start, Nick and I were born 26 days apart in autumn ’93. Nick’s dad raised him on a farm in Chilliwack where my dad was also born. And while Nick was raised by a trucker and I was raised by an artist - both of them were handy, hardworking, HILARIOUS and most importantly, they love(d) us to bits. In the time span that many of you met us (since starting this feed & YouTube channel), you may not have realized all of the many ways that our dads have supported us in achieving our wacky dreams - from my dad visiting us in Cambodia, to living with him in Ontario, and Nick’s dad always coming in clutch with helping us with problems in the ambulance, to just being someone to shoot the shit with at the end of the day. Nick and I have a lot in common, and our love & respect for our dads have always been something that we shared. Many of you know that we lost Bob to cancer this year. We are so glad the two of them could meet and toast us on our engagement before the wedding day. We know that if we had lived in Canada all this time, we probably would have had many more family meetups beforehand…. but even when we were overseas, we always knew that our dads were supporting us. Squeeze yours tight if you have the chance. Happy father’s day.
