Andrew, Heather, Miles, Mom and Richard and Derek and I had our Christmas gift exchange over the web cam at Andrew's house yesterday. it was fun. Baby Salmon got his/her first few gifts: a nice white knit sweater and a large white knit blanket (Grandma & Grandpa Gagne), three receiving blankets and three face cloths (aunt Heather serged some large receiving blankets).
Mom and Richard gave Derek and I a webcam so we'll have to set that up when we get back from vacation (2 work days to go!). I am still so excited about the set of luggage from Derek and Andrew and Heather. It will make travelling so much easier on both of us. They're very sturdy in a nice red.
Derek got Dosage Vol. 2 (a climbing video) which he watched some of when we got home and really enjoyed it.
Derek is going into the recording studio tonight and was preparing late last night. I didn't want to go to sleep and then wake up grumpy (if i got woken up) so I decided to stay up (until 1 am) and wrap the rest of the gifts we're bringing to Peterborough. I packed all the gifts and it filled the middle sized suitcase! I really hope the security people at the airport don't unwrap the gifts...it should be fine, they have those scanners.
We also went to a church party last night and got to say goodbye to our friends. It was kind of weird for me, i'm not used to everyone remembering when we are going away, they usually say "oh, you're going somewhere?" but this time, there were a few "aww, i'm gonna miss you!" so that was nice :)
so we are going to be pretty busy the next two days before leaving, Derek's recording tonight, we gotta pack, we have a party at the rockclimbing gym tomorrow night and then we gotta drop off the pets to be taken care of and do a final cleanup at home. wow. we're so excited about going to Ontario. It should be fun! It will be so nice to spend time with Derek's family and I am really hoping it works out to see Michelle et al and Jodi and Renee :)
5 days til Christmas
2 months & 4 days til Baby Salmon is due!
peace to all
