Traditions

When we lived in Ontario, we had lots of time to develop Christmas traditions: shopping at the Cataraqui Mall; putting up the Christmas tree in the doorway between the living and dining rooms; crunching through the snow to St Mary Magdalene Church for the Christmas Eve service; drinks and stockings by the fire; Mimi, Kevin, Molly and Hazel for Christmas dinner ...

When we moved to Victoria, it took some time to develop new traditions in our new home and, though they are very different from the old ones, they still make Christmas time magical:

🎄The tiniest little Christmas tree, already lit and decorated

🎄Fairy lights in the hedge

🎄A ferry ride to Vancouver

🎄A stay at the Westin Grand Hotel

🎄Dinner outside on Dec 23rd (!!) with Penny and Bill at the Sandbar Restaurant on Granville Island

🎄The Vancouver Christmas Market and Gluehwein!

🎄Christmas Eve service at Christ Church Cathedral Vancouver

🎄Christmas dinner at Penny's with family and friends

 Whatever your traditions may be, here's wishing you ...

Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy 2019!
