Christmas Day the North Central Alberta way

All family that live here came for dinner which was at 2 pm.  Lots of food was prepared (stuffing got burned) and leftovers were divided.  (Pictures of the diners & the loaded table are on Missy's camera.)  After dinner almost all went to play in the snowy weather.  The kids, young & older, had lots of fun.  The youngest and oldest stayed in the warmth of the house as well as two dish washers.   Enjoy some pictures-
                                                                      Fun, fun, fun.

                                    Some ways of sliding down the hill worked better than others-



                                   Jeff & his helper had to feed but he did get milking off.
      Some people weren't happy with the hill so the tractor was brought in to build it up-
 

                                                 Why can't I go outside and play? :(

Do you think Damon likes his pillowcase?

After the gkids were in bed then it was the adults turn for Chinese gift exchange. 
( Missing- oldest adults and the newest adult.)

Success

Successful trip to the city- wedding dress ordered, bridesmaid dresses ordered (yesterday from Sears) and Teri's grad dress bought.  I'd say that is success. :)
Traffic a pain and lineups in the stores but what do you expect in December?
