Banff Gate Cabin Christmas 2014

Banff Gate Cabins was the place we celebrated Christmas this year with our family, near Canmore, Alberta.

 

 

We enjoyed several days together having some fun, memorable times.

 

 

 

The kids had fun doing activities with Olaf watching them and wishing he could join them!

 

 

 

 

Uncle Jon was a good sport in trying to play games with all the cousins.

 

 

 

 

 

We made a gingerbread house, and it seems more candy went inside the helpers than on the house...

 


 

Mckinley and Joshie had fun playing in the snow and on the slides.

 

 

 

 

Ava loved the swings and being outdoors and playing with her cousins!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

Mckinley was hanging onto her horse so tight...she thought it might buck her off!

 


 

 

Brookie just wanted Grandma to push her higher and higher on the swings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ava and Brookie had so much fun sledding down the hill together!!

They would scream in delight, and sometimes in fear!

 

 

Mckinley and Deana were trying out the new face game, Colby was afraid it would be his turn next!



Colby is getting so big, it's hard to believe he'll be a year in March!

 

 

Ava had fun listening to her dad on Grandpa's 'tin can telephone'....it really worked!

 

 

And a new little reindeer joined us for a visit, how fun!!

 

 

 

 

 

Grandpa showing off his new hat to Elena...she loves her Grandpa!

 

 

 


 

Mark's gift to Ivy...he's hoping she wears it everywhere!

 

 

 

Yum, Ava, Brooke and Josh decorating Christmas cookies.

 

 

 

 

 

Ivy is loving the fun swimming time with mom and dad!

 

 

 

 

Uncle Mark have a great time in the pool with his 'girls'!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Grandpa is having fun with his new pet puppy. The kids loved watching him do tricks!

 

 

 

 

 

Our three little new additions to the family this year, Colby, Ivy and Elena. We love them, they add such joy to our family!!



Skiing...it's in the family! Brooke and Ava were on the hill trying to learn how to follow their dad's down the slopes...but first must come the lessons!


What fun, brave girls!!



 

Jon, Cam and Doug had some fun hitting the slopes together for the first time since Cam has been back from Phoenix.

Oh, just being in the mountains together is fun!


I love this picture of dad! He looks so relaxed, enjoying his book.

We had so much fun with our family this Christmas. Just relaxing, playing and hanging out together!

What a blessing our family is to us. The memories we made this Christmas will stay with us for a long time!
