Christmas 2005

Christmas with my
parents in Kelowna
Dad Christmas Morning
 I was able to get there a few days earlier this year and it was great. As usual, the turkey dinner was the best I've had since last time Mom cooked one.
Mom Christmas Morning
 Mom fell and broke her ankle at the Thunder Bay Airport so was hobbling around. Getting there early to do shopping with her was out of the question. Remember the coffee pot? Mom was supposed to go with me to pick it out - didn't happen. We did manage to drive around and see the Christmas lights though.
Computer Geeks
 It's terrible when you have parents that are computer savvy. I had to book my times on the computer!! The worst part is that I was the one who started them in Pogo - now they have to get 10,000 tokens before their day is over!!! Lucky for me they go to bed at 9:30 pm.

Christmas 2006

Christmas with my
parents in Kelowna
Dad Christmas Morning

I was able to spend Christmas with my parents again in Kelowna.  I wasn't able to get there early this year as I was working right up until December 23rd. We were still able to get things done for the dinner and had everything wrapped in time. 
The "tree" minus the pine needles
 Somehow mom and I managed to get some shopping in too. She was redecorating the basement bedroom so we spent some time looking for new bedding and curtains.
Kelowna Golf and Country Club

There was a lot of snow this year but the weather was still very mild and sunny.   The golf course looked so pretty with the evergreen trees surrounded by snow.

Mom died the following July so I am ever grateful that I have been able to spend so many Christmas holidays with them over the past few years.
