Decorate the Tree & Dynamo!

so we arrived safely in Ontario last night. I was sooo tired I thought I could go to bed by 10pm EST...but we stayed up until 1pm visiting. I had wanted to try to get adjusted to the time better and get up early, but we slept until 11.30am this morning and got up in time for lunch.

Here is mom salmon and derek putting final touches on the tree. They just got it yesterday but waited for us to help decorate. Marsha was disappointed because she hates decorating so she just sat and watched and took pictures.


Derek, Amanda, Dynamo, Mom, Dad, Marsha. Dad has been helping out the neighbours train their stallions. One day, Patty asked Dad to come and get a horse, Dynamo, a race horse who'd hurt his leg and was going to be sent away for meat. Patty said if Dad wanted him, he could have him. He is such a soft horse. His leg is still healing and when it has, then he will be good to ride.

it was a great first day to spend time with the family. It was SOOO cold with the wind. There was freezing rain so the dinner party Marsha planned had to be cancelled for tonight, but we hope to see most of those friends tomorrow night before the Christmas eve service.
