A Beautiful Winter Weekend

We had a beautiful weekend, the tempurature was +9 and we took advantage. After getting all of our house work done, I took Lexi over to the frozen lake in Strathmore to go skating. This is only the second time she has really been on skates so I wasn't expecting too much, but she did really good. She even made me let go of her so that she could do it herself, which she did quite well, I was very impressed. I've included a short video of her.

Christmas...A success

Well we had another great Christmas this year, we spent Christmas Eve out at Michelle's house where we had dinner, played some music and the kids exchanged gifts. It was a fun time and we even had a visit from Jolly Saint Nick (a surprise that Auntie Shelly arranged, she's tight with the old guy).

Christmas Day was spent at home where the girls opened their gifts, and I spend the morning putting Lexi's new "doll house" together. Tracy made ham and funeral potatoes for lunch and Grandma and Grandpa came out to join us and to see what the girls got for Christmas.

On the 27th Mom and Dad held a Family party at the church where we played games and some b-ball, and then mom and dad bought dinner for everyone. We were able to take a picture of everyone as we all the family there (except for Daniel who was sick). I've included the picture that we took, this is the version before I have photoshoped Daniel in, I still need to get a picture of him so I can add him in, gotta love technology.
