Chirstmas is coming!

It is hard to believe that it is already december. I have most of my shopping done, but I still feel rushed! I decided this year i would make an advent wreath...I saw one in a magazine i have and thought it looked cute. This is how mine turned out...





This is what is inside! I love Lindor chocolates!




I also wanted to mention that I am pretty excited for my brother. Since I can remember Alec's life has been basketball. This year he started school at UNB Saint John and he made the basketball team. I am pretty proud, so any game he has that is near the city Chad and I go to. We were lucky with his first game, it was at Mount Saint Vincent.

This is Alec (number 4) taking some foul shots at that first game.



Last weekend we went to Truro to see him play. I used to go to every game he played in high school. It is good to see him out there again. He is a pretty amazing player, even though he might argue that with me...he's just modest!

Laura's Home!!


I am late with this post, but on the 18th my Sister got home from her mission. The 18 months went by so fast! It is good to have her around again though. Chad and I went to the airport to meet here. My Mom got us to make posters and everything. Chad and I got there a little early, her flight was supposed to get in at 10:50pm. We got there around 10:30, and as we were walking in the door Chad said "wouldn't it be funny if she was already here..." Then we looked ahead at the benches by the door and there was Laura sitting all alone. Her plane got in a hour early. So the posters and the video camera were all wasted! My parents showed up like 10 minutes later. It would have been fun to have us all gathered around waiting for her when she got off the plane, but I think this makes a better story!

Anyway...it is good to have you home La!
