Christmas Baking

Today Mio and I had a lot of fun making a gingerbread cake.

I was privileged to attend a variety concert at which Mercat Cross as well as several other groups presented music, song ,dance,and stories of Christmas. Ryan was the newest vocalist with Mercat Cross and he looked and sounded fantastic.

JR's 70th Birthday

Many family and friends gathered on Dec 01, 2012 to celebrate the event of JR's birth seventy years ago on this date. The surprise arrival of Lee Ann was a highlight. After dinner the five grandchildren present helped blow out the candles on Barbara's special carrot cake and JR enjoyed this and portions of at least four other dessert selections plus a healthy (?) portion of ice cream! Touching words were spoken by Lorisa, Lee Ann, Jim and read by Krystal for Lucinda. Entertainment was provided by Johnny and the grandchildren doing their interpretation of "Gengnam Style" dancing. A good time was had by all and as Lucinda says, we'll see each other again in 10 years for a celebration of his 80th birthday.

Kid's Week-end

We had all five Calgary grandchildren for a sleepover last week-end. Had fun sledding, snowboarding, making snow angels,and bathing in bubbles.

We had a wonderful trip to Prince Albert to visit Mom, Carol and Arvid, Maureen and Robert and all the Guedo cousins.
