Starting the year off right...

The Honeymooners

Happy New Years!

Despite the storm, the Resolution Run went ahead as planned ~ minus about 160 participants....

NYE!

Homemade pizzas started off the evening; John made the crust from a recipe in the cookbook he got for Christmas from the McKittricks. Then as the snow started, we finished off the year at our friend Donna's house. The weather was so bad, we were only able to make it to the one party. But it was a good time - Thanks Donna!

Boxing Day

Merry Christmas!

After another wind storm Christmas Eve night, we awoke to blue skies and warm weather (about 10 degrees!). We started the morning off with fresh cinnamon buns and opening our gifts. Despite only being two of us in the house, there were many gifts to open ~ thank you to everyone for your generous gifts! We then headed out for a 40-minute walk, it was fantastic to be out in the sun. We came back to the house and watched some movies, had a nap, and then got Christmas dinner underway. Barbecued goodies for us! We topped off the evening with a movie and eating all the fresh baked goods in the house. We were planning on having a camp fire, but the wind picked up just enough that it might not be safe. It was great to talk to everyone on the phone...we wish you all a very merry Christmas!

Christmas Cat Fun!

Kate picked out some toys for the cats for the holidays, which they enjoy!

Lindsey's Replacement

Is this family big enough for TWO ski bunnies?

Winter Solstice

After a long day at work, we headed to the movies to see "4 Christmases" starring Vince Vaughan. When we came out of the movie theatre, the snow was coming in heavy and the winds were strong, making it white out conditions to drive home. Throughout the night we were woken up by the howling gusts that put so much pressure on the house, we could hear the wind whistling through the windows. The power flicked on and off and with us constantly waking up, this years Winter Solstice really was the longest night. The weather network says that the storm is supposed to continue (although there is a blue sky out there) and gusts could get up to 120 KM/H (that's hurricane force).
