Home for the Holidays

After a busy month of settling into the new house.... And a crazy week of ice storms and power outages... We ended up hosting Boxing Day Dinner. Sue's parents stayed for a couple days since their condo building had no power, and we had all 6 cousins and 10 adults adding cheer and Festive-ness to our new house. All the noise meant the kids were having fun... And all the wine meant the grown ups were having fun!!!!

An empty plate on Christmas morning means that Santa got our Change of Address Notification. 

Great dinner contributions from everyone made a nice feast.

A warm hot tub and brave kids made for classic Steaming Body Snow Angels...

Fun and smiles all around. Hope your Holiday was as memorable!!!

Winter eh...

So we had a pretty Canadian day today... Up early eating pancakes with maple syrup before a few games of hockey. Then straight outside or some Snow Fun before dinner while watching the Leaf game!!! 

Fresh air makes everyone sleep well!!!

Collect the Recycling!!!

Made the move from the Old House to the New House... sad to see our previous dwelling of 12 years be passed along after we did so much to it and created so many memories there, but we are in need of more space.  Made for a couple long days and some pretty long arms from carrying all of our possessions, but it happened with no major problem.  We had everything packed in the van, moved to the new house, removed from the van, placed in the rooms and unpacked in less than 3 days.... phew....

Empty basement.... no more Mini-Stick games...

Last minute clean up...

So Sad...

New Family room looks ready for Family!!

Rows of Rooms set up and ready to entertain!!!

Get out of our House!!!

Three days worth of Holiday Creativity resulted in a new place that we all lived... The Trek Canada Gingerbread House!!!  A culmination of candy, icing, snacks and sugar.... Mmmmmm!!!!
