What I did on my Christmas Vacation?
I had 3 turkey dinners. I even cooked one of the turkeys (well Jeff actually did most of it). Spent Christmas with Noelle, which I have not done in a long time because she is always travelling. Celebrated Molly's 1st Christmas with my In laws and Noelle's In Laws. We also Skyped with Dad & Bev while at Noelle's. Very yummy and fun. We always had "crackers" at our Christmas dinners growing up so I continue the tradition with Jeff's family and we did at Noelle's with Dixie's new twist of making a chain with everyone and then pulling. (Had to be there!)
The kids got new skates so we finally hit the outdoor rink. We also went sledding at Bruce Pit and other hills near us.
Saw "Chipwrecked" on New Years Eve. A few good laughs:)
Jeff's fav part was when he took a 5 minute nap:0)
**WARNING HOCKEY MOM RANT**
I spent the first week after Christmas driving around to Breton's 3 games during the Bell Capital Cup. 5:30 wake up, driving in questionable weather, shivering cold and loving every minute of it. I loved cheering on Breton and his Team. They won the first game and lost the other 2 but it was F-U-N! B also participated in the skills competition. Jeff coached during the tournie and for the AllStar game. In regular season the team is 12 - 0 and B has scored 12X!
I know one thing I did not do is take enough photos: here are a few:

Happy New Year!
Do you make New Years' resolutions? I do not. All I wanna do is try new things and have great adventures.
But I have a resolution for YOU - become one of my followers! I am thinking of not emailing out updates so therefore you need to become a follower (if you prefer the email updates let me know here bretondaphne@gmail.com)

So Random, Robyn??!!
Here are a few tips I have acquired from friends and/or my sisters:
1-scoop your salsa with a fork - then you avoid the extra liquid
2-add lentils to your meat sauce when having spaghetti. You do not even notice that they are there and they give you lots of extra good stuff (aka fiber)
3-add vanilla yogurt to your pancakes if you are using a mix. Makes them super yummy.
HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS !! Love Breton Daphne Robyn & Jeff
