Christmas 361 Days to Go

Yes our countdown for Christmas 2008 has begun. We all waited for what seemed forever to wake up to screaming kids, gifts, mess, and family. Sigh.. its all over once again. I unfortunately had to work over Christmas. We spent the morning at my parents. Steve came from Gibsons and took my place for the traditional Christmas Eve dinner at the Keg while I was hard at work.

Thankfully work was uneventful. Well not exactly, if I can suggest one thing. To anyone buying a Christmas gift, be sure to provide a gift receipt or you may end up being bashed with the gift you bought for that special someone. Ahh yes Christmas in Kerrisdale.

As for us everyone is doing well. Its now time to start planning Clara's Birthday January 19th. I cannot believe she soon will be one. It will go with her single tooth she sprouted a few weeks back.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and was spoiled rotten. I sure was thanks Santa. I am now just waiting for the thank you card from Visa. Our spending combined with others I am sure will keep them in business for years to come. Here is to a Happy New Year 2008. Alas I will be working again sigh.. watch out...

Enjoy some photos from the past few weeks....

Christmas Morning


Clara swimming a few weeks ago... her lessons have since completed she mastered step 1 drinking from the pool

Jackie & I, took Aidan & Clara to the kids VPD Christmas party this year at BC Place. Aidan loved the Horses which were on display. There were all kinds of great things for the kids; bouncy castles, bumper cars, and catered breakfast. This photo was at 10 am. Later in the day I worked the night shift. The following morning photo has been censored. I barely made it home..

Yes that's Aidan it took a bit of time to build thanks Uncle Steve


That should update the past few weeks in photos from our end. Again have a safe & Happy New Year best wishes for 2008

Snow much fun!!

Wow, what a winter wonderland! We all had so much fun playing in the snow and were also happy that it was gone so fast. We headed up to Gibsons Sat morning and got there just before the snow started... Sorry the photos are not in the correct order, cant seem to cut and paste them properly tonight. Enjoy!


Aidan loved his new sled, it sure goes fast!

Clara loving her walker

Nona and Clara

Is he already driving?


Clara loves the swing too!

Mmm, who should I throw this at??

Aidan and Josh sledding


The 10 foot snowman that Uncle Steve, Carter and Aidan built and Dad helped a little as well as you will see below :)

Clara hasn't decided if she likes her snow suit or not!

Yes, it took a little engineering to figure out how to build it!
