December Reflections

It has been a very busy time for Heather and myself since our wedding day in October. It has also been a time of many more milestones.

On November 23rd, I started a new job in Cambridge after leaving my old position some seven weeks ago. At least I managed to get at least one more ride in on Friday, which was my last weekday of unemployment. It was also around that time when one of our fellow VROCers generously gave us a set of highway pegs. Now, thanks to Kim and Mike's wedding gift getting the second set will be that much easier.

December was a month of birthdays. The most special ones were of course the 1st birthdays of our niece and nephew.

Jolene's party was first and it was full two weeks before her actual birthday. The family gathered on December 6th at a Cambridge community centre for this very special occasion.

The following Sunday, it was Adrian's turn and again it was a family-only function at his parents' home.

Christmas Eve was spent, as always, with my family. It was held at my parents' home this year as we ate well and exchanged gifts.
