It's hard to believe it's 2009 already! Seems like we just turned the new millennium yesterday! I had a few extra days off over the holidays and Cubby and I braved the cold to go the park in Delta Mills near Linda's. The slides are pretty high and open so we went down together. Lots of giggles and laughs. Cubby is wearing his monster hat. He's been feeling all of his terrible two's lately so the hat is quite appropriate.
My sister has been calling for a week to find out "is it Christmas yet?" With the snowy weather and first my mom sick and then my dad sick, we hadn't gotten together to have our Christmas. It finally all worked out this weekend and we got together to open presents including the ones that had been sent from California. My presents included tiger eye beads and wonderful silver african animal charms so I guess there is going to be another quilt in the works. Mom, Dad, Liz, Ian and I also went to see the Seuss exhibit at Saper Galleries. Ted Geisel created much more than just the books I grew up with. The show was wonderful and we had great fun talking about our memories reading the stories together.
Saturday night my mom had her first Mystic Shake experience. Dad was still a little under the weather so mom and I went to Cappuccino Cafe to hear the band. Irene joined us there and we all had time to catch up with holiday happenings.

Very cool for your family to share Dr. Seuss memories at Saper. :) I love it when a trip to a museum or art gallery triggers memories and makes the experience more fun to share.
I'll be interested to see what you do with your new beads and charms. Any chance we'll be doing African blocks for you for Block Exchange this year?
Delta Mills Park is excellent for sledding, too. We went there after Christmas with our new sleds.
