Jesus was born!!! I'm OH so glad about that.
We spent lots of time with our families this year. Much better than the regular quick visits here and there. We were at Derek's Dad and Rita's for 4 days at the weekend of the 15th,
Highlight: Getting snowed in on the snowy blowy Sunday, so we canceled both our work days and stayed til Monday.
We were at my parents place for 6 days! (Not Derek though, he had to go home to work Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, poor guy.) high
Highlight: the Mulder/Deal Christmas Competition Extravaganva. (pingpong, crochinols, (sp?) shoelbuck (sp?) (shuffleboard type deal), euchre, even sudoku. Rob was the grand champ, even though he lost to Mr. Deal (Dave's father in law) in ping pong. Favourite quote during pingo pong: "That was Asian!" I'd like to announce that I came in 5th place. :0)
Anyway, I wish I could say I took some real nice Christmassy pictures. It's always so busy, and I don't like being behind a camera the whole time. Would rather be spending time with people in person! So here are some of the shots I did get.
Abigail and Riley
Abigail and Geneva ready for the snowstorm. (it lasted about 3 minutes before they came back inside.)
Geneva took this one of her 'tousin' Travis
OOOOOH, a Dora bowl!
Geneva with her Opa.
Can't decide if we're really having fun out here or not...
My fam. (Nice jammies Rob.)
Brookie's favourite present! A touch and feel, movable doggie book.
Ok, NOT a good picture of me. This is us watching the amazing curling video Bri made of us to highlight the annual Mulder and friends curling. Dave curled with a broken wrist, and Derek curled with a torn quad. They both did rather well, and no further injuries, so that's good.
I even got to see my friends from high school, Debbie and Mariah! I got to meet baby Luke for the first time too, that was very exciting. SO nice to see you girls! We'll have to try to meet up again next year, k?
