So we've burst into the New Year with feeling nothing but sick. Well I wouldn't say it was all nothing, but sometimes sickness overtakes the rest. The holidays were great. We started out by having Christmas at the coast, hitting up all the family events. We then drove home, did laundry, packed and the next day drove to Lethbridge to touch base with my family for New Years. After a relaxing but eventful time there we then drove back home (this time staying 2 days so Rich could work). We then drove back to the coast for a Friesen brother Christmas. That too was great, especially working out our bodies playing the Nintendo Wii. We have put over 3000km of driving on our car this Christmas season.....it was all worth it.
A tradition that I have had in the past is a gingerbread house making contest. Thanks to Miranda, Rich and I were able to carry the making of the "house" into our Christmas together. We make a gingerbread train.....lets just say I think I enjoyed the experience and Richard tried to endure the experience. As you can see, he got a little tried of working with such small pieces of candy and being steady with the icing.
Thanks to all our family and friends who made Christmas both memorable and enjoyable.
