See the Sunlight Through the Pines...



One of my most favorite Christmas Songs is John Denver's Aspen Glow. This photo, taken on the first morning of our recent trip to Kananaskis, Alberta is a perfect tribute, I think.

A Northern girl at heart, Christmas just isn't the same to me without snow. My sons, David and Marc, have experienced snowy Christmases only just recently, since they both moved from the temperate climes of BC's West Coast to Alberta's somewhat harsher environment.

As children seem to do, David and Marc have now grown into young men and are stretching their wings and making their ways in the world. As David prepares to follow his heart and dreams, alongside his wife Lauren, what better time could there be to for us to spend Christmas the way it was meant to be - together, and in the snow!

For months now, Mark and I, and the boys and thier sweethearts Lauren and Samantha have been looking forward to sharing Christmas in Kananaskis at a Delta resort located about 90 minutes west of Calgary in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Here are a few pictures and memories from our trip. Enjoy!
