Our Christmas & New Year's Eve

The day before Christmas, although the kids do not believe in Santa anymore, they were so excited that it was difficult to fall asleep. They woke up very early on the 25th to open their presents. Ginger got her presents too!

In the afternoon, Pauline and family came home and we had turkey for dinner. They also slept over on the 25 and 26. The kids were most of the time playing video games, either nintendo ds or game cube.

On the 27th, we brought the kids on the mountain for some tobogganing. It had to be within the freezing temperature because cars had icicles! And my feet were frozen ... but the kids had lots of fun going down the slope with their sled.

New Year's eve - we went to a mauritian party until 1.30am. There was lots of sega dancing, disco, Fun, fun, fun... Kids were playing nintendo ds, adults were on the dance floor. The year was ended joyfully! Welcome 2008...

Snow is here!

Dec 01/02 - This is our first snowfall since the beginning of this fall and it's also the first snow experience for Ginger. Kids are enjoying themselves by playing snowfights in the backyard, making snowforts or even sliding in front of the garage door with the sled! We planned to go out today for the christmas party at the dance school and at the taekwondo school but due to the snow, we rather stay home and be safe! Instead, the kids had fun putting up the christmas tree.
