Doors and Wires

 
It is time, but the doors are being finished today

 
that will make a big difference

 
 
above the ceiling Peter is doing electrical work

 
there is not a lot of choice where to put your feet

Doors are being installed



 
I assume there will be a bit more cement

 
lots of dust coming off the grinder

 
big holes where the doors should come

 
we are glad to see the door people





The weather is still nice
 
 
but it's colder then you think

GVT north of Winterbourne

 
On Tuesday we hiked the Grand Valley Trail

 
Starting between Elora and West Montrose

 
The lines for maple syrup where already there

 
It was an unexpected good hiking day

 
looked  like an abandoned maple shack

 
The old bridge pillars

 
we had lunch on this very slippery bridge
It was hard to get up

 
The "new" bridge

 
a more famous bridge


the only covered bridge in Ontario

 
another iron bridge
we also went on a buggy bridge but I didn't take a picture

 
back to the beginning

Merry Christmas

Last night we went to the candle light service, saw quite a few friends

This morning ministry of music "we have a saviour" by Mark and Marc

We sang Ere zij God
A favourite song based on what the Angels sang
We saw many extended families
It is so good to belong to a church
To be a church celebrating
 Emanuel = God with us

Poot Christmas

 
The youngest baby
 
 
And a girl who's not afraid of boys
she has 3 brothers

 
Easy smile for the camera

 
3 generations


 
Always nice when those that live a little farther come


 
I cut Jay out of the picture :)
 
So I took another one



 
 
 
 Cor is the Patriarch of this Family

 
This is a bit of a long post

 
Mainly for those who couldn't be there

 
We had a few that traveled from afar

Finally time for supper
it was very good!

 
got some big smiles

 
and flying hair

 
These kids love to be played with

 
more!!!

Candles that change colours

 
They looked plain white

 
But they changed colours

that was a lot of fun

we tried to figure it out but didn't see how it worked
although bringing them in from the cold it turned colour without the candle burning

Gingerbread Men

 
Let's make some gingerbread men


Icing didn't work that good

 
My turn

 
that was a fun idea

 
 
The end result
