Christmas in Alberta ...

December 27, 2014

We left on the 26th of December ... stopping in at friend's (Vern & Ellen) for dinner ...

We arrived at the Knight household the next morning ...

to open our gifts ...

The kids were always after my back scratcher ...  so Santa decided that the children would love to have their own ... !!!

Santa also left remote control monster trucks at our house for the kids ...

Oma loving her pictures of the great-grandchildren and her bottle of Yukon Jack ... !!!

Oma getting smothered with hugs and kisses ... !!!

Excited to hang up our framed pictures of the family ...

Grandpa helping the children with their Monster Trucks ...

they had fun for a few minutes out in the frigid weather ...

driving their trucks ... batteries do not last long in the cold weather ...

Thanks to Nathan & Katie for arranging ...

for us to see our nephews, niece(Nathaniel's wife) and grandniece in their home ...

We had not seen them since 2008 ...

The four boys now reside in Calgary and are all taking Electrical apprenticeships ...

We contacted Ian & Kendall on Skype ...

It was great that they were able to have a visit with all of us ...

During the evening the party was moved to the rec room ...

and the battle was on ... 

with boxing matches on the Wii ...

Everyone participated and had a good workout ... !!!
