We made it!

Sorry for the delay in postings. Things got pretty crazy! Lets take a look at the last few days:

Thursday - Christmas Eve
Got up at 6:30 and started baking. Lots to make to bring and I had to prep for our own christmas eve dinner. We had butternut squash ravioli with a browned butter sage sauce, vanilla carrot puree, roasted veggies (brusselsprouts, potatos, onion, sweet potatos, celery and carrots), I made Phils polish salad and then some chocolate brownies with white chocolate chips and white chocolate coconut drizzeled on top. YUMMY! We spent the night visiting family and family friends and got home around 8pm to start our own dinner. It was a relaxing night and we both helped cook.

Friday - Christmas Day
We went over to my families for xmas, it was so nice. We have a huge buffet table set up and people just eat all day. So many goodies. We headed home at about 6 and watched my new movie, Julie and Julia (OMG my new favorite) and then snuggled until I fell asleep. Then Phil got in his xbox time hahaha

Saturday - Boxing Day
Money is tight right now as Phil is now laid off and has gone back to school and the wedding is not far away so we skipped the boxing day sales. Instead we cleaned and cleaned and made the whole house and packed for our trip to BC. We had lots of guests come by so that was nice!

Sunday
We woke up bright and early, loaded up the rav and took the puppies to the Kennel. Unfortunately the kennel was an hour east of the city, so then we had to drive back to the city and still had another 8 hour drive to Summerland. I was so happy to get out of that car!! You dont stop as much when the dogs arent there...man my legs are stiff today! We got to summerland in time for dinner. It was nice to see Phils family. We played lots of games and then went to bed at almost 2am.

Which brings us to today...I am the only one up right now, so hopefully people start to stir soon....we are supposed to be headed up to his parents cabin up in Apex today for some skiing, snowshoeing, cross country skiing and tobagganing. My training for the next few days is strictly cross training stuff....should be fun!

Im not sure if we will have internet up there but if I do I will post about our adventures :)
