Manitoba Christmas Part 1

It’s been an eventful week. Our flight went without a hitch and we landed safely in Manitoba last Thursday. Apparently our arrival chased away deep-freeze temperatures and replaced them with much more bearable ones. Although Christmas day hasn’t officially passed, we’ve already celebrated Christmas with the Friesens and Pletts and we’ve been able to reconnect with some friends and family that we hadn’t seen in about a year. For K, this was her first time meeting her extended family. Her female cousins, J and C, were glad to see her.



L also got to celebrate his birthday. The cake with dinosaurs on it was a real hit.


Early Christmas

We’re flying to Manitoba for the holidays tomorrow, so we celebrated an early Christmas here in Massachusetts yesterday. We went out for breakfast in the morning, and then we came home to see what Santa had brought. L got a stable complete with horses, bales, and sliding stall doors. K got a doll. She’s not really into dolls yet, but she was in a good mood and was really photogenic.
