Then the snow storm...

So it snowed in Vancouver. It was fun for a few days, and then we were glad to see it go!!!


Chris trying to look amused. We are such "West Coasters" that the cold is really not for us.

Hot Chocolate at Starbucks

What else are we going to do after a bit of Christmas shopping...go to Starbucks!! Max and Bruno are continually asking to go to Starbucks, which is hilarious because there are so many Starbucks snobs in Vancouver, so that when the boys mention it, people make comments like, "Oh my, the evil chain of coffee.." blah blah blah!!! What would we do without Starbucks?

Drinking Bottled Water...Why Mommy?

Max began wondering where our water came from!!! We've been on a water advisory for the past 10-11 days because our drinking water may be contaminated. So, we went up to the Capilano Water shed to get an idea of where our drinking water comes from. Wow!! An educational fieldtrip. I was cold, and just wanted to roll down the hill and go shopping at Park Royal!!!
