Christmas Memories 2015

I hope I don't forget to write down something, because its been a few weeks now since

Christmas... hard to remember everything...

Our Grandaighter's Ashley and Teylour, Ashley's Hubby Chad and their twins

came over on the 20th December... they had their own wee Christmas this year

at their home...so came to us earlier, which is great, because I feel like we

had Christmas going for a week.

Ken set the table so nice for our early Christmas dinner

but first we opened gifts

They loved theirs..

Here's Gramps helping show L what to do..or is it the other way around??

The very next day ( the 21st ) we did gifts with Bruno, as he was leaving

to go to Brazil for Christmas..

This is what he gave us... we love it so much

It plays Silent Night

We had a visit from Elias, before he moved to the West Coast

And our Granddaughter Skyla came over

At the beginning of December , we had the families we Hometeach

 and also my visiting teacher

over for a dinner.

I enjoyed it so much...

I love get together's..and we have the nicest families..it made Christmas

feel more special...

Our Family also went to a Filipino party, and afterwards we

went to Spruce Meadows to see the lights.

it was sooooo cold when we

walked around Spruce Meadows..it felt

like our hands and toes could fall off.

Filipino food is so delicious !!

Just arriving at the party

Here we are at Spruce Meadows

I love lights, and even though it was freezing, I loved

walking around and seeing everything

Do we look cold ??  lol

We also had Christmas Carrollers come to our door

with goodies too !!

Christmas Eve, Ken had to be up at 3:30am for work, but

was home by 3:30 pm

We do mostly finger foods for dinner on Christmas Eve, and

Ken and I go out for a walk.

Its so calm and peaceful.. we looked at some lights and

just talked about the year, and our family

We came home and got the gifts around the tree.

Christmas Day was busy, preparing food, opening gifts

and being surrounded by friends and family..

Love my new P.J's

Love everyone here so much

After everything was cleaned up..it was lovely

just watching everyone talk and laugh..

I chimed in once in awhile, but I

mostly sat on the couch and

enjoyed everyone else.....

It's over for another year.. we are 

in the middle of January already

I wonder what this year will bring
