A Jasper Christmas!

 Michael, Nadine and Daniel met Kendra in Jasper for a Christmas weekend fun in the snow.  They rented a cottage in December to celebrate Christmas and exchange gifts and so Kendra could see Daniel once again.  The weather for the drive from Edmonton and Prince George was iffy as there had been new snows for the few days before.  Both had their doubts about the drive, but everything worked out fine.  Both had white-knuckled drives to Jasper but the return trip was ok.    While there, they skyped the opening of their gifts and I took pictures of the screen...just like we were there.  Missed the hugs though!
Daniel was super-excited to see Aunt Kendra and to see what Santa had delivered.  This was one of his gifts along with a camera for kids that operates just like a digital.  Pictures can be downloaded too.  I think they wen tobogganing in the fresh snow and got lots of fresh air.  of course no one travels to Jasper without a feed of fresh cinnamon bums from the local bakery.  Yummy breakfast!  All too soon, the weekend came to and end...but Kendra is now halfway through her residency programme. 


 Michael opened his handcrafted wood clock and light switch for his office that we were able to find in LaConner, WA last April on our way home from the south.
Daniel watched as Aunt Kendra opened her shirt and earrings...I think a birthday gift from Nadine. Michael and Daniel
 Nice to chat with Nadine.  Kendra had knit her a beautiful scarf of alpaca wool...gorgeous!  A great weekend!
