Christmas 2009

I just realized that I didn't post any Christmas pictures, other than the gingerbread houses and our little flood! My family joined us this year from two provinces away, along with my parents' Brazilian student. The coldest she is used to at home is +20C, so -25C was a bit of a shock for the poor girl! We had a great Christmas and the boys loved seeing their cousins again!

The girls slipped out for a coffee and last minute shopping...
