This is out of order as I’m going through our pictures and slowly updating my neglected blog.
Shortly before Christmas we sold our van. It was good to us but feels nice not to own this beast anymore.
Painting! Joel would much rather paint with a brush than finger paint.
Leah, however, is not afraid to get her hands dirty. She’s making a hand print wreath, our yearly tradition going strong.
Another yearly tradition – Operation Christmas Child.
Our living space is rather small and although I would love a real tree, it just isn’t practical (and I don’t think it is allowed in our building either). So I spread out our big newspaper roll down our hallway, added some paint and cut it out and voila, a Christmas tree.
We helped bless some local seniors. These are the gift cards all prettied up so they can go into a stocking.
We also went to Canada Place and saw the old Woodward’s window’s Christmas displays of old. There were crafts, lights and general festivities. Then we walked over to a hotel which had massive gingerbread house displays. They were amazing.
