Christmas again





Finally updated my blog layout! Looks better I think...

Got together at Uncle Kirk and Aunt Jackie's this week. The kids got spoiled again!
We had prime rib roast and crab legs...It was really good!

Merry Christmas!









We got home from Florida around 7:00pm on Christmas Eve...Christmas day we were having 20 people for dinner! I couldn't have done it without the help of both sets of parents and also Jackie and Sheryl for contributing so much to our delicious dinner. And Uncle Louis...the pita! Thank you for all your help!

We had a great day and it was fun watching the kids open all their gifts.

The next day we had about 25 friends over for Boxing day. Been doing nothing the past couple of days....it's been nice!

Florida

We went to Naples, Florida for a week just before Christmas (got home on Christmas Eve). It was a pretty relaxing trip. We would just get up in the morning and then decide what to do for the day. The weather wasn't great but it wasn't a huge deal, we still got out and did alot of things. It was nice to get away but it was a bit hectic trying to plan for the trip...had to make sure everything was ready for Christmas before we left!

Award



Andrew received an award at school today. It was for "Responsibility". Two kids in each class are awarded every month for different themes. Others are Optimism, Perserverance, Respect, etc. He was very happy to receive this award! I hope Nathan gets one this year too.

Happy Birthday to Uncle Gary!

Niagara





We went to Niagara Falls for a night last weekend. Had fun at the water park, Rainforest Cafe, and the arcades! Watched the fireworks at the Falls...it was nice, but chilly!
