The Joys of Christmas, Part Four: Men of The Snow

Yep, snowmen! I love snowmen, in any shape or size! There's just something so cute about them, they are definitely one of my favourite parts of the holidays!

The Joys of Christmas, Part Two: Winter Wonderland

At this time of year, I like to grab my camera and just go for a walk in the frosty winter wonderland. I especially love how the fluffy flakes stick to the prickly needles, and the crisp air makes every breath noticeable. It's such a gorgeous time of year!

The Joys of Christmas, Part One: Christmas Baking!

December is here and Christmas fast approaching. At this beautiful time of the year we get so busy and sometimes think, "well, we could skip the holiday baking", but it's important not to because it's one of my favourite parts of the holidays, and not just because of the tasty sweets! It's fun to spend time with friends and family making cookies, while listening to Boney M!

This year my mom came over and we spent the whole weekend baking! It was a long haul, with emergency "jump-in-the-car-get-coconut-and-butterscotch- visits to the local store and troubles with the 'Gramma Cookie' dough being too sticky. But, this just added to the excitement, and a few bottles of wine later my mom and I had much to show(minus the tarts Wes kept stealing)!
