Christmas 2008








Dinner with our friends


My gift to Daddy

Daddy got Rock Band!



Still catching up! Christmas seems like a long time ago but we still haven't posted any pics. Violet (and the rest of us) were very spoiled by our friends and family - thank you everyone!

Violet really 'got' christmas this year. When we talked about Santa and how he brings presents to good girls and boys she would point to herself and say "I too?!" We had a lot of fun decorating the tree, lots of Christmas music for Violet and Jon to dance to while mommy put the decorations on the tree - somehow Violet ended up being naked by the time we were ready for her to put the angel on the tree.

Violet had so many gifts to open that we had to stop and take a break for some breakfast - seems to be a tradition at our house :) We usually go for a christmas walk but our attempt at a walk didn't seem to fit with Violet's plans, even though we took her out in her new red wagon from santa! We had a wonderful dinner with our friends Elise, Travis, TJ and Taite - a rowdy and fun day it was!

It was our first white christmas in Victoria - turns out Violet loves the snow (especially to eat) but not the cold so much. Jon had a LOT of shoveling to do as he was helping out 3 neighbours and doing our driveway, walkway and sidewalk as well. All is green again and we are happy about that!
