Best New Years Eve Ever

We had such a fun time New Years Eve. Kim, always outdoing herself, made everyone (yes Jasper too) gold crown hats - with fleece lining no less. As Rob cooked yet another amazing meal the rest of us danced around in our hats drinking Singapore Slings.

Awww...

I swear we were having fun... playing "Things"

Christmas

The abundance of snow was starting to melt on Christmas Day. It was sunny and bright. The kids got snowshoes and had a practice across the street in the school playground. Here are some pictures from the day.

Where'd Ogo go?

So finally an update! We are back in the groove of things here in Vancouver after a lovely holiday in Columubus, Ohio and Windsor, Ontario. Our lingering colds are finally gone and I'm ready to update this here blog.

We started our holidays in Columbus where we spent time with Jasper's Ogo and Mimi (paternal grandparents) and Aunts Hilary and Hannah and Soon To Be Uncle Steve and Ryan! Well I won't waste any more time here are some photos.*
