Christmas and New Year in Vernon

 We flew to Vernon on Christmas day as flights were much cheaper! I seem to be missing photos from Christmas eve and Christmas morning. I'll have to figure out where they are and add them later. Here we are in Calgary Airport.

We arrived right at dinner time and my fabulous mama had dinner all ready for us as soon as we got there! What a treat!

Photo taken by Eli!


Hugs for Anne!

And Papa

Opening presents on boxing day

Nice earnings papa!

While Eli watched hockey with Uncle Dan

Pics by Dan of kids sledding in park 





We spent a freezing cold day up Silver Star at tube town

They had so much fun. I wasn't sure how Immy would like it as she hadn't been before but she got to the top for her first run and told the guy who gives them a push 'spin me fast'!

Beautiful sunny day = soo cold!



Eli coming down for his last run of the day/night!


Immy and daddy made a snowman

Christmas tree family photo with Charlie!

View from mum and dads

We watched a movie one night and David and Sheila were obviously really into it ;-)

Bowling!


New Years Eve dinner! 
Eli and Papa wore matching (sorta) ties!








Dance party at midnight!

On New Years day we tried out Nanas snowshoes in the back yard!



Before Christmas!

Ok....mammoth posting starting now to catch up to today. Some photos from before Christmas 2014 (not in order)


Visit with Santa at Arbour Lake light up

Just before Christmas David and the kids were so sick! This was our house for a week and a half!


We made some Christmas presents.

And took photos by the tree 





Immy made herself breakfast one day but she couldn't find any bowls so she made cereal in a cup....I think it was more milk with cereal than the other way around!

My beauty with a messy face!

For some reason this one didn't come ou the right way. A picture for her friend Caitlin in Ontario. She  misses her so much and talks about her all the time even after 7 months :-(

The order of these pics is so messed up... the finished gingerbread house!

Working on their gingerbread house.


 Another outfit chosen by Immy

This is how I always felt living in Calgary and Ontario

And back to Arbour lake light up night
