Count by twos and tie my shoes....

Just like Franklin.....

A has been learning to count by twos and today she counted to 100 in 2's all by herself with no mistakes........ :) so thats the first step of multiplication done :)

Plenty to keep you going on this amazing blog!

YES!!!

It's done, it's all paid for and the little snow mini album on Life As Lou's blog is MINE :) well, it will be once its off of display and after Christmas when it gets sent to me :) I am so thrilled - I think its gorgeous :)

I think Lou's work is gorgeous :) Just the kind of style I love but can't seem to duplicate :)

OMG!!!

I emailed Lou and asked if she had an Etsy store as I loved her snow mini album from her blog - she told me it was available but I could reserve it...its currently on display at her local scrapbook store so she can't ship it until after New Year....but if I want it, it's mine :)

I am so excited :)

Gingerbread houses.....



A making a foamy gingerbread house from a kit :)

Breakfast at Esso...

We went to the Esso for breakfast this morning.....we ended up sitting with this strange Grandma type lady who looked quite familiar...couldn't place her though until she told me her name was VAL!!!!!!!

Only joking :) But we hadn't managed to meet up with Val since before our Whistler trip so it was nice to finally get together for breakfast and catch up on news....Abigail was totally puzzled about the fact that Val doesn't have white hair - I guess she assumes that all Grandmas have to have white hair :)

Breakfast was lovely, Grace was FABULOUS with Sam as always!!!! Deserved every penny of her tip! And it was good to hear everything about Val and her family and all those little bits that don't get blogged about (Val has a blog but it's invite-only.......)

We have to do breakfast more often for sure!!!!! I miss it :) or maybe we should walk the indoor track instead of having brekky! lol!

snowfall..




This has pretty much been the view from my window all day.......yesterday it was -15 with a -30 windchill...today hasn't been much warmer! I postponed all my errands because I couldn't face taking Sam and Abby out of their car seats and putting them back in constantly in town....

snoring......


We found Abigail asleep on my big chair last night - about an hour after she was supposed to go to bed!!! She looked so lovely fast asleep there :)

Rhubarb Crumble.....


dessert last night was rhubarb crumble made from rhubarb from our garden......this is NOT the same as a crisp at ALL....

But I should have used more rhubarb......It ws two thirds deep with rhubarb when I put it in the oven, but the rhubarb looks like hardly anything at the bottom of the crumble...still, everyone cleared their plates :)

Susies letter to Santa......
