crazy forty- & fifty- somethings.

Last night we went to downtown Vancouver (which I only get to do once or twice a YEAR and absolutely love it!) and went to the Bay and walked around. :) The Bay down there is huge! 7 floors. We were hoping to go to a few other stores in a big mall like Holt Renfrew, but the whole place was closed! Only the Bay was open. Not as fancy as Holt Renfrew but it'll do. I didn't buy anything; but I did manage to finish off 1 and a half gifts I had left on my list.

While we were waiting in the till line-up, my dad started trying on hats. My aunt and uncle (My dad's sister and brother-in-law) were with us, and then they started trying on hats. Mostly it was just making fun of the fact that my Dad couldn't find one hat that looked good on him. Thankfully, for the world wide web, I had my small camera with me. Enjoy. :)



It started off a little crazy with the adults; then I had to jump in. Haha! These make me laugh so hard.


My uncle Steve looks so evil and hilarious in this shot.


Yup, we match.


My ears are ALWAYS cold; so when I saw these earmuffs with a new "behind-the-head" design, I had to try them out.



Tonight we're headed to my Aunt and Uncle's house after church for our traditional Christmas Eve dinner (well, the dinner isn't traditional. Last year it was Chinese take-out!) Let's make that a traditional evening, not dinner. But before that, we're attending my absolute FAVOURITE church service of the whole year, the one that I can't wait for. It's the Candlelight Christmas Eve service, and at one point, everybody in the whole place is holding a lit candle; it's GORGEOUS!

Enjoy your family traditions tonight, whatever they may be. And I wish you all a week of RELAXATION! (And reading!)
