Christmas is coming !!!

The beginning of December in Canmore and everyone is excited to get ready for christmas cheer. Houses and trees are already being lit up, some have been lit up since the middle of November. At first you think, crazy Canadians...it's another 6 weeks until christmas. However, we quickly learned, that those Canadians are not so crazy after all, when we were having to put christmas lights up last year in -20 temperatures !!! Who was laughing at who then!!!! So, yes, our lights are up and on !!!!

Canmore has been lit up too, and the celebration started in the afternoon with sleigh rides gingerbread decorating, carol singing and of course, not forgetting, the big man dressed in red!!!

Mmmmmm!!! that was worth the effort.

Heather enjoyed decorating her gingerbread man and enjoyed it even more trying to eat it. She was excited to see Santa, however when it came to sitting on his knee, she wasn't so brave and was very dubious about the strange man dressed in a funny red suit, that was until he gave her a golden bell!!!!. It is very funny to see their mood change once they realise what this man does for them.
