One of my favorite things is this photo that I took of Rob on our first date at the farm. He is getting hugs from China.

Christmas was amazing ...

Christmas was so amazing this year. It was my most favorite that I have had in a very long time!!! We all had so much fun decorating the tree, spending time with Rob & my families. The kids had so much fun - I love Christmas even more as an adult now that I can watch the joy of Christmas in my children's eyes. Spending my first Christmas with Rob was amazing. Everyday that I spend with him I grow to love him more and more. In this new house we are in we are turning it more and more into the perfect home everyday. Everyday we seem more and more like a real family.

Getting Ready For Christmas

feel free to join us if you blog

Challenge for today is:
What is one thing you look forward to during these last few days before Christmas?

There are so many things I love about Christmas time and holiday preparations. One of my favorite things to do getting ready for Christmas is to have an evening where I put on Christmas music or a Christmas movie and then I sit on the floor with a drink and wrap all my Christmas presents. It is always so fun and so relaxing - I always end of feeling totally in the Christmas spirit when I am done and there are beautifully wrapped present under my tree.

The Snow Is Amazing!!!

It snowed all day yesterday and all last night. The amount of snowfall is incredible. Here in Smiths Falls we got 37 cm of snow!! It is insane. My car has not been working for a couple of weeks now (it has a dead battery.) When we moved here two weeks ago we parked the car on the side of the laneway and it has not moved since. Now, it looks like the car I found in this picture. You can hardly even tell it's there except for the faint car shaped outline in that particular snowbank. It is crazy!!! I just spent a half an hour shoveling about half of the laneway - man I am out of shape!! I did not realize how out of shape I am - I am going to have to do something about that for sure. I just have to think of some form of exercise that does not involve going out in the cold.
