It's a Tradition

Every year (for quite some time now),

we make an effort to 

go to Burnaby Village Museum one evening

prior to Christmas Day.

It's a tradition.

And, a wonderful one at that!  :)

We ran into friends on our way in.

In fact, these are the friends who

originally told us about this fabulous museum.

How fun is that?

We enjoyed going through much of it together.

And, when we parted company,

we reconnected throughout the evening.

We couldn't have planned it better if we had tried!  

Since Calvin is our family photographer,

Howie and I get into more photos together.

It's a new thing.

We're Canadian...can you tell?

Our sweet friends rode with us on

the restored carousel.

And, Calvin took photos.  
In the photo below ~
Fraser and I are standing on the left of the carousel,
Austin, Emma and Howie are seated on their mounts!  :)

Even Austin was able to join in!

What a blessing!!

Here's our favourite house on this site.

It's in its original location ~

built about 100 years ago.

Yes, in Canada, that is old enough to be in a museum!  

Want to come in for some hot chocolate

or hot apple cider?

Emma and I would enjoy hosting you here!  

Ah...there's Calvin!!

He did a self-timed photo and jumped into

it so we could all be together.  :)

We like to end the evening with a stop

at Krispy Kreme on the way home.

Dear me!  It's a dangerous thing to do!!

What are some of the special traditions you have

with your family in the days around Christmas?

It would be lovely if you would share!  :)

Many Blessings,
Camille
