Days 354-361, Winding Down

Day 354, December 20/09
Lily on top of the cat house. She looks excited to have her picture taken, don't you think?

Day 355, December 21/09
The girls & Shane made some crafts this morning. This is Emma's Christmas tree. It says "Merry Christmas" across the ribbons.

Day 356, December 22/09
More crafts! These "canvas" painting sets came from Michaels, and I think they were about $5.00 each. Emma's started out as a butterfly & some flowers, and its finished product looks like a colourful butterfly & flowers. Sophie's started out as a unicorn & some flowers, but it's a bit more abstract now :)

Day 358, December 24/09

Christmas Eve with the Burts, the Potters and one Leverton. A fun time was had by all :)

Day 359, December 25/09

Merry Christmas! I couldn't pick one photo for today, so I chose my two favourites!

Here is Emma opening her Wizards of Waverly Place the Movie DVD, she was pretty excited, as she hadn't asked for it.

After present opening, we drove up to Kitchener to be with Brad, Trish, Cole, Mom & Dad. Sophie & Cole got matching Handy Manny pj's, and here they are relaxing and watching (aptly enough) Handy Manny.

Day 360, December 26/09

Dad and Emma are playing Mario Bros for the Wii. They are about the same skill level, haha. They did have a fun time trying, though!

Day 361, December 27/09

We had Kim, Robbie and Sydney over for lunch today, and it was so much fun! We hadn't met Robbie before, so that was exciting. I think the only one NOT having fun was Molly the dog, she for some reason found the need to bark incessantly, and ended up on lockdown outside for about an hour. Robbie was saying that she thought she'd be happy living around here, so maybe they'll be back soon! :)
