Christmas 2016

Happy New Year!!

But first,  Christmas...

We had a wonderful one!

Tuesday, Dec 20, C had her school concert.

N went with me to the morning concert, as this will be the last one we'll be a part of after C starts at the Intermediate school next year.

There were a couple more days of school, then the kids were off for Christmas vacay.  

Friday afternoon we drove over with K's parents to K's Uncle and Aunt's house (3 hours away) in Bedford, NS.

That evening, we visited and went to Freak Lunchbox for even more treats.

Saturday the family went to downtown Halifax where we walked around, 

Found a nice Korean/Japanese restaurant, 

Then went to the Halifax Library. 

(Get it? :-) )

Then, we went back to Bedford for dinner and more visiting.

Christmas morning, the kids were up around 7 and they got to open stockings before the rest of the adults were up. 

After opening presents, we hung out; the kids went to the park with their great uncle; the ladies cooked dinner and we ate around 5:00.

Monday, we got up, went for breakfast at Sunnyside Restaurant and drove home.

Also, the kids spent a couple nights at their grandparents' house. 

K worked.  

The kids both went with friends to the newly opened Off the Wallz trampoline park.

I got to work at the newly opened Summerside Rotary Library.

We started a game of monopoly, but never finished.

K and I went to bed early on New Year's Eve, but N and C were up in their rooms til after midnight.

K's parents came up on Sunday, New Year's Day, for cabbage and black eyed peas.  This year, I wanted something different so K cooked a chicken stirfry,  jasmine rice, eggrolls (with cabbage) and BEP's on the side.  Yum!

Now today is the first day back to school. Except it isn't because we're having a snow/ icy rain/ rain and wind warning tday.

So, the first day back will be tomorrow!

Have a great New Year!!!
