Started out a pretty perfect winter day this morning... the sun came up over the mountains for a postcard picture!
Christmas day was all good! We opened gifts with Sonia and Annette over the phone.. someday we'll get Skype all sorted out ,then we could see and hear whats going on!
Emil and I donned our X country skiis and played Santa as we skiied to the neighbours dolling out and receiving Christmas cheer! It was snowing like crazy out as we made our way along Erindale road to Pete and Ellis, then back to Deb and Ashly's and then across the beach to Mike and Alissa's, then back home again, home again, home again...yes, we were like snow bunnies by then! My new wickaway socks and Gators and Gloves worked perfect! Thank you Sonia and Annette for the great presents! Once the turkey was in the oven,w e hit the hot-tub and thawed out for an hour or so! Dinner was quiet, and yummy, but afterwards, Deb and Ashly and their visitors, Tracy and Steve , came over for a few drinks... All in all it was a pleasant day, tho Christmas isn't the same without our beautiful daughters and grandaughters... It won't be long before summer arrives and we can be a big happy family again...at our house!
Love you all and hope to see or talk to many of you over the next few days.
I heard from Morgan that Ian is getting it figured out, that the pony is his and will be coming to Edmonton in the spring...
In the meantime, Joyce took off for Kamloops this morning and should be about there now... Hope so before he snow and weather kicks in...
Happy holidays to everyone..It has been a slice! Lynn comes out tomorrow, when we will hit the x-country trail on the beach again!
Deb ,trying to figure out the new wine holders... That is Steve and Tracy, friends of Deb and Ashly
