It was going to be a different Christmas no matter what.
But also an opportunity to see what traditions needed to be maintained,
plus the addition of a new thing or two.
The weekend before Christmas we had the annual viewing of the Grinch, complete with a wacky seasonal treat - this year, dill pickle flavoured candy canes!!
The lights needed to be strung
Not bad!
Wild Christmas lights needed to be seen to be believed...
They were near Nadine & Colin's and fortunately not the view from our window!
Probably not a new tradition but oh so lovely.
The porch was once again very very busy
The house needed to be decorated
We continued on with the tradition of "a cuisine new to us". From Tea & Bannock we picked up a "Navajo taco", a bison burger, a salmon burger on fry bread, bannock with cranberries and a cedar tea. Delicious (and thank you, roomie Kate!). We missed your appreciative explorations, George & Lorraine!
Carolling with the neighbours continued
No childhood Christmas would be complete without Nana's Christmas socks for that loooong week before the big day.
