Christmas Weekend

A quiet evening at home. A wonderful way for a busy workin' man to spend the first evening of his 4 day break. He is reading Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's Farm which Tyler is greatly enjoying and Boyd is pretending to be interested in.

Christmas Eve day was relaxing as well. The boys enjoyed some indoor activities as it was too cold to be outside. Keith and I worked around the house.

Christmas day was spent with our Jackson friends. Keith requested Thai food for his Birthday dinner and we had a great time preparing all of it. Janell is frying the won tons in the above photo. They turned out very yummy this time.

Here Keith is scraping out meat from giant crab legs. Crab isn't very Thia, but it was a great addition to the meal.

Dinner's finally ready - Pad Thai, beef curry with rice, and crab with lots of butter - yum!

Janell made a scrumptious cranberry pudding cake which we managed to fit 31 candles into! Quite entertaining getting them all lit!

Happy Birthday to a wonderful husband and father!

Today, we went ice skating at the Snow King hockey rink. It was Tyler's first experience on skates and he had a wonderful time.

Thanks for all your help Janell!

So, we're having a wonderful weekend, but we're really, REALLY missing our family! Wish there weren't so many miles between us. Hope you're all having a nice vacation.
