Day 155-157

We are on the road! Today made our way from Edmonton to Great Falls, Montana. There was absolutely NO SNOW from Calgary onward and over 6 degrees. Felt more like October than the end of December.

Merry Christmas!! Hope you all had a wonderful day filled with friends, family, laughs and love! I know I did!
OK...clearly this has been my worst stretch for not updating...but that will soon change! The craziness of the season is now over and in just a few short days we will be making our second annual trip down to Mexico! 3 months of fun, sun and taking photos!!

Day 147

Went to Candy Cane Lane last night with Krista, Adam, Tyrell and Sawyer. Sad to say that it isn't quite what I thought it would be...but it was still pretty cool. Wish the pics of the horse drawn carriages would have turned out better...c'est la vie! More to come tomorrow!!

Days 143-146

Same song and dance as last post! 'Tis the Season! I am the first to complain about winter in Alberta but this one has been wonderful! Temperatures barely below freezing a minimal snow. Dare I say it was actually beautiful last night watching the humungous snowflakes falling, which lead to an early morning walk for me and Zoe and the chance to catch up on my blog postings!
