winter storm!!!

it's snowing! it's snowing! it's snowing! first of all, i'm glad i don't have to go anywhere today. there are far too many hills around here, and i'm pretty sure my little car - albeit a Manitoba native - would just not do too well. The extent of my venture outside has been to walk up to Pam's house, and then back to my house...that's only 10 houses up the street, but in this wind, it feels really far!!!

Doesn't this look like it should be Winnipeg??? but it's not....!! it's Abbotsford! This was taken this afternoon.

This was last night, as the snow had just begun to fall
always time for a snow angel....
...and a good old fashioned face wash...
And then, as you can see, this afternoon, i got bored..........so i decided to hang my head upside-down and hair spray my hair...pretty sweet, eh!!

Well i'm really enjoying this snow.....but only because i can stay at home and watch most of it through the window!! I guess i could always pull out the old cross-country skies and head down the hill if i need to!

'tis the season

Well since I spend part of December at home in Wpg, i like to start the season early out here in BC, so that i have a few good weeks of Christmas decoration enjoyment. I myself do not put up a tree out here, though i do put up a few decorations. However, Pammer and I decorated her tree a few nights ago. We tried to set it up by candlelight....in honour of our recent 36-hour power-outtage....

Our festive evening began with some coffee and ice cream, as you can see below

Here is the tree, all nicely decorated
And here is Pammer showing off the wreath for her front door
Good times! So now i have a good month to enjoy the tree, the lights, everything!

boring, but something...

ok i know i have been slacking on my posting....and i really have nothing interesting to report. I haven't taken many pictures lately, except of Carrie's cats......so i will post pictures of the cats because i have decided that posting pics of the cats is better than posting nothing at all. You may disagree, but really, it's not up to you.

This is Matilda sitting pretty (and then lounging pretty on the computer)


And here is the sophisticated Dr. Bombay doing a little evening reading...


I will try and come up with a better post next week...
