Ice Skating

Yesterday we went ice skating. It was fun and much easier than we thought it would be. Our friend Mike took us to Nathan Phillips Park. Once we got our skates on we managed to stand (a feat all of it's own) then it was onto the ice - gosh that step down onto the ice seemed very high!

Work Visa and Job Secured

Today we went to the border where Andy was granted a work visa. Turns out that in his professional he is eligible for an exemption to some of the bureaucratic stuff so it was quick and easy - ha ha (Jesse didn't think so). Jenna also got her work visa sorted so we can all stay. The only down side was that they refused to give me one (oh dear, how sad).

Merry Christmas

Well, it's Boxing Day in Canada and I'm exhausted. Not that we did a great deal for Christmas but there seemed to be such a rush leading up to it. I think everyone in the Greater Toronto Area left their Christmas shopping till the last minute - me included.

The Room Was Filled With Miniature Michael Jacksons

Today was Northstar Montessori's Winter Concert - a Tribute to the King of Pop. I tell you, it was simply an overdoes of cuteness. They started with the toddlers and went to Junior High.

Dressed for the Snow

This morning awoke to more snow (surprised?). It was different today though as it's not raining, just light fluffy snow. Much more dangerous on the roads this morning as there's a layer of ice under the snow. Not sure I'm happy to drive today. I guess I'll have to get used to it. Where's the summer when you need it.

More Snow Photos

I took these on the way to drop Jesse off at school. After the first few Andy wouldn't let me wind down the window anymore so some of them are taken through the wet window.
