Here are some fun photos of Grace and Logan visiting Cochrane, and the boys just
generally loving life.

Grace convinced Henry to pull her around the Spray Lakes turf time. He was so excited to
see his cousin that he was zipping all over the place with her.
Full size
Logan also really enjoyed the turf time party too.

Walter LOVES playing with equipment in my lab and digital multi meters are no exception.
Here he is testing batteries with me.

Walter using my oscilloscope in the lab.

Adjusting the trigger timing on my scope.

I took Walter for his first skiing of the season at Nakiska as it opened in early November.
Full size
Walter yearns to ride on the big ski lifts, but he needs to decide to want to stop before that happens
or it's a LONG ski down.

Walter killing it on some playground equipment near our house.
Full size
Walter found my Xbox 360 controllers and he thinks they're pretty awesome to play with.
Full size
This little happy man was pretty excited to go sledding with Rhys and Grayson without Henry.
Full size
I think I counted Walter climbing back up the hill at least 35 times on this day and
carried his sled the whole time.
Full size
Natalia has far more patience with our boys than I do and she does crafts with the boys.
Here's Walter being diligent with his painting of a nutcracker.
Full size
I took the boys for a wander around the river valley which Henry loved.
Full size
I think it's hilarious that Walter was out in his Muddy Buddy (his yellow suit).
Full size
This ice chunk is actually bigger than Walter.
Full size
Henry likes throwing rocks and ice into the river.

This little Muddy Buddy on the ice working on his skating.

Full size
Look at this smile coming down the slide at a local playground.
Full size
These two little monsters were so tired after spinning that they 'needed a break'.
Full size
They were riding down the slide 'together.
Full size
We played hockey at our house and Walter got to try out his new hockey stick.
Full size
Natalia got a gnome for her godparents and the boys painted sections of it each.
Full size
Walter managed to get his first chin scar, a bit later than I was expecting. Amazingly it wasn't from
flying off playground equipment, but actually falling and splitting it on the toilet.
Full size
Natalia was totally on top of it though and brought snacks and everything to keep him amused.
Full size
Walter proud of his chin scar and his Steri-strips to keep his chin closed.
Full size
I gave in slightly early this year and allowed the tree to go up on November 29th. And the train
made another appearance this year too, which the boys LOVE.
Full size
Playing with friends Gracie and Jackson at Henry's school park.
Full size
They pulled books out of the mini library and read on the picnic table.
Full size
And then having snacks in the back of the car.

Having a car party with Gracie in the front seat, thinking they're ruling the world.

Natalia's friend Janice often gets the boys a gingerbread house, and this year was no different.
These two monkeys were thrilled to be eating candy and decorating a house.

One of Walter's favourite Christmas decorations is the nutcracker.
