Hi all and a Very Merry Christmas to all...
I hope this note finds you all healthy and happy.
This year's themes include the temperature (all Canadians love the weather as a topic of conversation), teeth and memories of warmer days (see first theme).
We have had a lovely Christmas week or so of pretty constant -30 degree Celsius weather that has forced us inside or at least outside for only short periods. We have been using the Multiplex to its full potential - swimming, running, and skating to deal with the cabin fever.
During this time we have had a great time visiting and catching up with everyone and of course thinking of our fun last year.... There has been a 60 degree differential in temperature!
We got last year's 50s tinsel tree at the Op shop and this year's tree was from outback but we had to brave -37 and cold toes. Looks almost as good doesn't it?
Last year we were at the races with good friends... at the trots. I was the only one trotting this year.
Our addition looks great. We are happy but it is slow going 'cause of the weather and merriment.
Christmas eve excitement... to be followed hours later by...
Kate all smiles - Look at those teeth! Upon the Orthodontist's orders - Kate had to have 4 teeth extracted. She was a trooper and the Tooth Fairy was generous.
This is a big candy cane and two of her teeth ....
and her new spacious smile.
Kate being Kate.
Smile Mira.
Well this is all our news... Have a Happy New Years.
Sharon
