Winter was here, but seems to have moved on!

We have had some unseasonably warm weather this winter. So warm that we took the opportunity to wash the car the old fashioned way...with the hose!
The kids are also walking to and from school with light jackets on.

Finally some snow!

Winter has finally arrived! We had some good snowfall, found a hill and went sledding! It was my first time!

Time to get this 2012 Blog Rolling!

Hello everyone... Yes I have been neglectful of this blog.
2011 ended the usual way... Me working as many days as I could leading up to Christmas and New Year.
As usual the kids got some fantastic gifts...
Hunter got one of the biggest Lego's I've ever seen. The Star Wars Millenium Falcon, 2500+ pieces. It took him 2 solid days of building to complete it, but managed to do it all by himself with no help! He also got a Nook (e reader).. A bit like an ipad.
Shaina got a nice new bedding set, a Notebook (laptop), some clothes, electronic Monopoly, Wii fit and Wii games etc.
I got a nice new black coat... I bought myself a pair a sheepskin boots (not Uggs!) These came direct all the way from Oz.
Dave got an iphone... So we are all technically savvy right now.

2012 started off very mild weather wise... Well above normal temperatures and no snow... Until today (20th Jan).. It just keeps coming and coming. I have taken the night off work, the roads are a mess and most people will cancel their dinner reservations and opt to stay in tonight. Dave is making homemade pizza! Yay!
I have attached some random photo's. Enjoy. I will try to keep all of you informed on a regular basis.
Happy New Year! And have a great 2012.
