Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!!

Welcome to Balmy Victoria. The temp has even dropped down to -10 which is a first here in 50 years. We have had fun playing around in the snow, and skipping school and work. Lots of icicles and snowball fights, topped off with hot chocolate. We are having lots of fun and are eating lots of snacks.

Halloween night, a stinkin good time!

We had a great night travelling around and robbing our family's candy bowls. We visited friends and grandparents and had a huge fireworks display back at the family compound. IT was great and no fires! Abby was Tinkerbell and Hannah was a skunk, it was a beautiful thing!

Here is Abby and Hannah with their cousin Kayla...

Seibs at the Zoo - waah whoooo

Abby on the biggest turtle we have ever seen!




Yes thats right we headed to the Vancouver Zoo after I was done my last residency at University. I am now done all classes and am starting my final thesis project which will be done in Febuary. I can't wait!

We had a great time, saw lots of animals, and was amazed at the quality of the zoo. We spent the whole day there, and had a riot, all except the arguing with Abby that the Siberian tiger was not a cougar... She still stands by her word that those huge cats are cougars. Oh well, you can only go so far. We had a great time, stayed at the Super 8 in Langley and had the whole hotel to ourselves. We had fun swimming and hanging out together, it was a special highlight seeing Sylvia coming down the 75 ft waterslide. We haven't laughed that hard in years, as the waterslide was a little bit more slick than she thought. Thank goodness I was wearing my depends, as I laughed so hard I almost filled my drawers....

Enjoy the photos.
