The Festival of Lights

For the second year in a row, the Breedvelds, Lopez's and our family went to see the Festival of Lights at VanDuesen Gardens. And for the second year in a row, it rained, but we had a great time. The amount of lights is amazing, and there is lots to see. The kids were old enough this year to enjoy the lights, or at least notice the lights. Maybe next year it won't be raining?

Merry Christmas

I can hardly believe it, but there is less than a week until Christmas, and only 2 days until we leave for Alberta. Yay! As you can see, we finally have a new camera, and I am updating my blog so that everyone doesn't think we have fallen off the face of the earth. We are all finished our Christmas shopping and now can just sit back and enjoy all the Christmas activites that we can do as a family. In the back of my mind, I know that I need to start packing, we will only have 2 weeks after Christmas, so I guess that will be one of my priorities today. We hope that you are all having a great Christmas. Never forget what this is all about. Jesus came for us, and that is a great reason to celebrate!
