Christmas
Hi there, hope that everyone had a great Christmas. I certainly had a good time.
We didn’t have a white Christmas here, or even a white boxing day (but we did have a white day-after-boxing-day).
I a few days at Christmas with Shanon and family at their house in the countryside just out of Calgary. It’s really quite isolated and is right next to the farm where her Dad works. We had fun, food, music, singing and even acting. They enjoy their Christmas traditions!
Fun in the snow: Shanon’s sister, Lorel - Shanon and their friend JoLynne.
Shanon’s Mum and Dad, Ivy and ‘Lightning’ Rod enjoying the gift exchange.
New Year
New year was fun, with a few friends from FOCUS over at Shanon’s house. Yep, I’m still very much a part of the international student group.
Whilst I haven’t made any new year’s resolutions in the regular sense, Shanon and I have both agreed to read through the Bible over the course of the next year using the same reading plan. Only four days in, both reading the same passage each day has resulted in some very in-depth conversations.
Happy new year to you all - God bless!

It was good to hear that you had a great time over Christmas & New Year. We also had no snow over the holiday period but that is very much the norm.
It is good to hear that you and Shanon are reading the Bible together and I am sure you will have some more in-depth discussions as the year progresses and I pray that God will bless you both as you read His word.
Happy new year to you both. God bless
Andissimo!
Yeah! I hope you aren’t too traumatized by your Christmas experiences…
