Week #12 December 23rd to 29th, 2018

Here we are at week #12 already, over have way through our vacation for this winter!

December 23 - 29, 2018

One of the displays at the Chedrauis Super Market. This is baked ham with
 pineapple topping. Looked so yummy!



Even Santa came to share time with us on Christmas Eve.


We celebrated Christmas Eve with  our Mexican friend and neighbour Claudia, her mom and sister. We also had a couple of Canadians for dinner with us too - Laura from BC and Maurice from Winnipeg. It was a pot luck dinner, new dishes for all of us to try. One of the hits was a fruit cake my aunt Maimie made and sent down with us. It was delicious, thanks Maimie!



Theresa, Dwayne and Nancy.

Laura, Claudia's mom and sister. 

 The real Claudia!

 Howard and Maurice.


Christmas Day called for another feast, this time Howard and Theresa and Gaston and Louise Begin joined us. It was another wonderful get together with great food.











The kids didn't feel it was like Christmas without  a huge tree, lots of presents and snow on the ground. They returned home on the 28th( with -21 degree temperatures) to have Christmas with Nancy's family on the 29th, then on to the Island to have their own. I have not heard any more on the subject but I expect they enjoyed their own Christmas at home even though it was a few days later.

We enjoyed the kid's visit - it was wonderful having  them here with us.
