Happy Family Day!

Monday the 15th of Feb was family day here in Ontario.  However, you only get this if you are provincially regulated so Andrew and my brother-in-law Dave are federally regulated so they had to work :(
Candace and I thought it would be a great idea to go tobogganing on the hill behind her house.  It is a small hill which is good because I don't have a helmet for Vi yet.  Here are some photos of the day. Sadie would not give up the front of the toboggan but luckily Vi isn't old enough to care!

A quick update

Just a quick note about Vi (so we remember this 20 years from now...)
Every time Vi sees a man with a white beard (translation: any long beard), she says 'ho ho ho'.  So funny, but also embarrassing . We went to the market a few weeks ago and sat beside a man who had said beard, Vi was ho ho ho-ing the whole time we sat beside him, every time she looked at him.  This past week I was in the kitchen making supper and Vi was in her chair waiting for me to bring it out to her.  I heard her reach for the paper and I also heard a lot of crumpling,etc.  A few minutes later I hear, 'ho ho ho'.  Vi had opened the paper to the obituary section and was 'ho ho ho'-ing at one of the photos of a gentleman with a white beard.  Too funny.
