julie, doug and I along with frank and chorizo left prince george on saturday, December 23 to drive to calgary to spend christmas with gabe and rosemary
...
christmas turned out to be everything I had expected ...
a christmas tree, lots of food and wine, christmas presents, family and friends and a special treat, a baby jesus birthday cake
...
when we left calgary we headed for the rockies and spent time visiting friends and found  a lovely hotel in jasper to spend the night

as you can see I'm almost up on all fours ... it won't be long before I'm crawling ... the clock is very old and I think maybe it belonged to julie many many years ago ... chorizo is dressed for christmas, too
from one elf to another .... christmas is fun
christmas morning surprises
crawling was a cinch using this table
I can sit all by myself  ... the three poses of elias ... 
food, drink and merriment
what a real pleasure it was to spend my first christmas with my grandparents, gabe and rosemary; with my parents, doug and julie; with my aunts, jane and cathy; with my cousin, justine and with my best friends frank and chorizo
