Special friend

Its been a pretty rubbish few days for a few of us now, but we cant let that get us down, and we are doing everything thing we can to band to together as a family and make each other happy. So you can imagine how awesome I felt when my friend Brie told me she felt I was really special...she even brought me some awesome gifts. I was so excited I had to blog about them right away!!

When you gotta go, you gotta go

Well, you know what they say, when you gotta go, you gotta go, and given the fact the mancave is, well a mancave I felt I needed to venture home for this one. My wife does such a great job of decorating its hard not to admire her beautiful work whilst I do what I need to do.

A big thank you and hugs to Nadya Kruyschek for helping me take these photos, and a big thank you and hugs  to Brie Kovacs for helping me find, and buying me the jeans that made this post possible. (on top of the awesome furniture she created that is in our bathroom).

Her prince awaits

Dressing up and taking the wife out on a romantic date is one of the many things I enjoy doing. So once more I don my suit and wait patiently for my princess, no matter how late she may be running she can be safe in the knowledge I will always be ready, waiting for her.

Bed rest

They say that behind every great man is an even greater woman, and this is certainly proof of that. So naturally when the wife isn't feeling to good I need to do everything in my power to make her feel better again. A nice meal, followed by some much needed rest and cuddles in bed ought to do the job.

Lazy weekend

Sometimes when you have free time its nice to escape everything, throw on your comfortable clothes, kick back and enjoy some fresh air, and that's exactly what I'm doing here. A few free hours is just what every man needs to refresh, and revitalize after a long hard week of taking care of his family.

Family man

After a long hard day of being a family man, there is nothing more relaxing than retreating back to my mancave, pouring myself a drink, lighting up a cigar and reflecting upon all the things in my life that have gone right for me. A wonderful wife, amazing daughter, and overall great family what more is there for a man to really want?

A real man

Sometimes as a husband and father I need to venture out of my mancave and spend time with the family, this was one such time. Catching me unaware my daughter asks me to come to her toy room and play stuffed animals with her. Any man can hide away in his man cave, but a real man isn't afraid to get on his knees and play with a stuffed animal for his daughters amusement.

Drumming the hours away

Photo taken by Masterpixel (Click to view larger)

The wife and daughter have gone of to shop, leaving me the perfect opportunity to sneak back to my man cave and get in some time on one of my favorite toys, my drum kit. A Christmas gift from my daughter that keeps on giving. Reminding me of all my childhood dreams of wanting to be a rock star, when in reality I know as soon as I'm done its time to do the dishes before the wife realises I've been slacking off all afternoon...shhhhh, its out secret ;)

Lifting Weights

Welcome to my new blog, The Mancave, where I aim to prove to the world, that us men can look just as good as the women. In my debut post, the first shot of many of my secret hideaway mancave, away from the wife and kid. I spend some time lifting weights, preparing for the next shopping trip my wife drags me on and all the bags I will need to carry
