Not sure about this...
Not really sure what to think about this! Any thoughts? Anyone ever have one?

The annual tradition of the Christmas Train...
The annual CPR Christmas Train rolled through Portage La Prairie the other day and we were there once again to see it.
The first time I ever saw the train was a very frigid night in Moose Jaw, SK back in the early days of being married and my husband starting out his career in CAF. It was a sight to behold, even if I could no longer feel most of my body!
Many years later, we have once again found ourselves in a place that allows us to see this sight, as well as being older, we are much smater and stay in the car to see it!
Keegan thinks it is the coolest thing ever...and so do I!

Teacher's Gifts 2010
So last year I made and gave away cookies in a jar. I labeled them "ChasingKeegan Cookies."
This year, I saw an idea on a blog that I read on how to make Homemade Hot Chocolate. I got the recipe from Citrus's Blog. There is also a recipe for Homemade Marshmellows there as well, however I used this recipe.
The Hot Chocolate made and waiting to go into it's bags...
The test run for the marshmellows...
And since this is my test run for the marshmellows, I decided to try out some other flavours, rather then just the crushed candy canes onto top to see what worked better using sprinkles from Pamperd Chef.
So depending on how the taste test goes, finished gift pictures to follow.
On another note, completely unrelated, I came upstairs late to bed the other night, only to find this...
Isn't it great to have a King sized bed and there be absolutely no room for you to sleep between the hubby and 3 dogs. I guess the one good thing was that the gnomelit was fast asleep in his own bed and only after 10 mins I was finally able to get the lab to move to her pillow on the floor.
