Hello from the land of c-o-l-d!! I hear the wind a-blowing round the corners of the house. It's -23* with a wind chill of -40*. Not a nice night to be out. We did make it to Church & now it is too cozy at home to be out & about.
What an exciting month January has been. We've been able to walk outdoors when the weather has been nice. I have been able to spend a week at the Redds in Calgary - had a nice break & also got my teeth looked after!! Nice to meet with old friends & acquaintances, but best of all to see grandchildren in their own setting.Elena & Peter showed the dance steps of the jive & swing - fun to watch. Hugo has designed jerseys for his floor hockey tournament & Grannie was able to use 'heat 'n bond' to glue on the names of the various teams. Yesterday he came over & we worked on the numbers of each player. Hugo traced using a stencil while Grannie cut & ironed the numbers to the shirts. Hu invited Grandpa to see the movie 'The Man from Plains' at the Citadel - a great film of President Jimmy Carter who, while in office was highly criticized but now appears to be quite a hero!
We celebrated our 55th wedding anniversary by dining at Red Lobster - I think I have had plenty of sea food for awhile.
We are preparing to leave for our vacation to Victoria & Sydney. Jim & Grandpa will drive. Karyn, Elena & I will fly . They will spend the weekend with us. The girls will go to 'tea' at the Empress
Hotel - their menu never changes.
We just got news President Hinckley passed away - what a great man he was - we will always remember him for the wonderful example he was to us all.
Love to all
Grannie
