Happy Saturday

Well, we survived the snow storm from yesterday. Oh, excuse me, I believe Environment Canada dubbed it "Snowmageddon". Hardly. I cleared the driveway twice yesterday, and then Ian shovelled it so we could get out to go to the party last night.

Here's Julie...



What IS it with kids that they have to eat snow? Oh well... as long as it isn't yellow...



Back in the summer I posted about my neighbours across the street and how they only cut their half of their postage stamp sized lawn. Well, take a look here at the neighbours on the other side...they only shovelled their half of their teeny tiny driveway!!



!!!

The guy in the middle gets such a bad deal. No one cuts his grass or shovels his driveway. And he has cancer. Give the dude a break. I was going to try to head out there today with the children to see if we could clear his driveway for him but I just looked out and its been done.

Next time...

The wind was blowing so much that it blew my front door open and snowed in my front hall.



And no one noticed!

Great.

We made it to the Lewis's annual Christmas party last night and it was a good time.

Here's Jordan all dressed up for the party...



We got home just before 1am and the children were so exhausted they just fell into bed. Jordan had fallen asleep at the party, three hours after her normal bedtime, so we weren't sure what kind of night/morning she'd have.

Well.... She got up for a bottle at 8am (!!!) and went back to sleep. Ian got up at 9:30, Julie came down around 10am and Sam at 11am! Sweet. Ian headed out for donuts, muffins and my beloved steeped tea (again, double milk/no sugar in case you wanted to surprise me) and we all watched some tv together on the couch.

Jules plays soccer at 2pm then I'm making the children help me with some housework and gift wrapping.

Maybe I'll even start my baking today. It's only 5 days until Christmas!
