Christmas 2022

Merry Christmas!

Now that I can read, the world is my oyster (cookie). For example, I can read recipes.

I made these double chocolate mint cookies from start to finish by myself.

On Wednesday, ski camp was cancelled due to high winds, so I got to ski with The Bigs. It was a bit frosty. Look at old Bill Healy.

On Thursday we started the long drive to Silverstar Ski Resort in British Columbia. It looks like a well-timed trip. Back home it is raining, even at the mountain, but here it’s just snowing.

The village and all the lodging is mid-mountain. You can ski to everything.

They converted the original lodge into guest rooms and suites. That is where we are staying.

I had my first ever t-bar ride at the end of our first day of skiing.

On Christmas Eve, I threw a party. We had dried apricots, dried figs, Christmas cookies, and hot bouillon to drink.

Santa was still able to find me despite the change in location.

My stocking had an awful lot of writing utensils in it. Mom said Santa wanted to make sure I was well-equipped to write thank you notes for all my Christmas gifts.

I made The Bigs a Christmas diorama.

Here I am headed out for a Christmas morning ski.

We started with a run on Christmas Bowl, of course.

Frozen Snickers. The perfect snack.

There are nordic trails right out our door too. Here, Mom and I are making the last climb of the day back up to our place.

See you in the new year!
