We had a wonderful time with Geraldine's family renewing relationships and get updated on the news. Family traditions are often maintained at Christmas time and here one of Uncle Henry's traditions is being upheld by his son, Aaron and Sir Gideon!
Much more subdued and focused on the yummy food were Sir Peter and Eric.
One of my dear sisters, Bernice and Lilla provide a more traditional pose.
Another family tradition maintained here by Uncle Alan, not Opa -well at the moment!
Some quieter times were also enjoyed at Aunt Bernice and Uncle Gord's home. Sir Peter challenging Thomas in a game of chess and learning new strategies to utilized against the lord of the castle.
Lilla and Eric were wonderful playmates for our knights throughout the holidays.While Sir Peter was watching a Junior A Hockey game with Uncle Henry & Aunt Joanne, and his cousins, Sir Gideon was being educated and entertained by Uncle Gord. Then we watched the game with Aunt Bernice and Uncle Gord on TV in warmth and with popcorn!On Christmas Eve, Sir Gideon received a motorcycle (the kind allowed at the castle, for now:)Sir Peter was delighted to receive ski goggles --- skiing ahead :)
Cousin James and Christina and the girls who had much fun with the knights.
Christmas Day visit at Opa and Oma's. Sir Gideon was a little pale as he had a gift he didn't desire on Christmas Eve - the annual flu! That chocolate looked good to him if it had been at a different time. Thanks to Uncle Henry, the lord of the castle was picked up after his travels that day.
Sir Peter reading the Christmas card from Opa and Oma. Here is what we all looked like after all the festivities, eating and visiting. Thank you all for giving us a place to sleep, food to eat, and love that will help us through the months ahead. Love to all of you.
