Hey just a quick blog to say MERRY CHRISTMAS !! Its snowing so much outside right now ! we had around 30cm at the weekend and today we are expected to get another 15cm !! thats a lot of snow. And apparently it never snows here so we are pretty lucky. However, Debi is currently on a plane from Amsterdam to Seattle and then she needs to get a plane from Seattle to Vancouver so she can be here in time for Christmas. I really hope she makes it !! im so excited to see her :) It is possible to get a bus from Seattle to Van which takes just under 4 hours...so if the flight is canceled there is a chance of that. Anyway, fingers crossed its all on schedule.
Today we are heading to Safeway to get our chicken and a few last minute things for our amazing meal. I am going to make us all french toast for breakfast and then im making some soup and debi is making scones. Then we will have a mains (usual christmas feast) and Greg is making an apple pie, yuuuuuuuuuum. So basically we are just going to eat all day, good times. I'll be sure to take loads of pictures :)
In other news i have now worked for 3 whole days ! those of you who know me well will know this has brought me out in a cold sweat ;) I'm enjoying work and starting to get into the swing of things. I seem to be on the evening shift all the time so that means i get the day to play. The pay is rubbish for right now but as of friday il of been working there for a week so i get tips, good times and then after a month i get an extra $2 and hour, even better !! They gave me a christmas present which i thought was pretty lovely of them since iv only worked there about 5 seconds, it is a little bag full of nice chocolates, and one of the girls was telling me the christmas do is coming up and we are getting a lodge on grosse mountain and going ice skating and sledging and stuff. well good. All of the people who work there seem really nice, it was pretty quiet for the first time last night so i got a chance to chat to them, im still being the shy new girl but im sure friendships will be made in time...
Need to get wrapped up and ready for getting out into the snow, its so hard to walk in as its sooooo deep ! need to jump everywhere. my hiking boots are probably the best thing i could of brought, and to think stephen almost managed to steal them !! I called stephen and wendy when debi was there last night (was that last night ? my tme difference head has got all confused...perhaps the night before...monday night) ao was good to speak to them and 'visit' a different house....that makes it sound like im dead....i mean see another house !! and i got a peak at my present. Debi is bringing ALLLLL the presents, im very excited, shes like santa ! i hope she comes wearing a beard !
Its Gregs birthday tomorrow too (as well as Jesus and Santa) so i suppose he should get some special attention...we'll see !
ok im off to brew some tea...what am i like. Have a good christmas and il prob try and call home either tonight (if im up late enough) or tomorrow at some point in between all the cooking. Need to hear all about your holiday !
