Home for Christmas


Zoe and Quinn arrived home for Christmas very early Wednesday morning. (2:30a.m.) after a short drive from Victoria. Morgan has been here for two weeks...nice to have early exams. Thanks for the goodies Zoe. Had to take a picture of this gingerbread man before he was devoured. Delicious!!!! Thanks

Here's to a very Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Tree Harvest


Morgan and I returned home with four trees, one for us and three friends. We went out to the cabin overnight and went tree hunting the next day. While we were gone Fernie had its first real snow dump in town. At last it looks like Christmas. Just have to wait for Quinn and Zoe to arrive home from Victoria and we are ready.

The Paint Has Cured



Well after almost five years the paint in our bathroom has cured, so I can finally do some trim etc. First task at hand was to sand down enough of the old fir floorboards (104 years old) and finish off the windows with some trim.

Also inserted the bathtub skirting which had to be trimmed so it would fit properly. Very tedious job but looks a lot better than a gaping hole. Sorry Plumbob. (this hole was her hiding spot from Kyna when she didn't want to play.) Next on the agenda is a new wood counter top complete with new sink and taps. Will be in for Christmas!!!!
