All good things must come to an end. Too bad that Christmas vacation is one of those things. We had a great Christmas and a great holiday week in Toronto, filled with friends, family and festivities. Unfortunately today, like many others, we all headed back to work and to daycare. Boy it sure was hard to get up and go into the daily grind, especially knowing that the next holiday on our schedule isn't until April! On the flip side, however, that next holiday is likely to be spent in sunny Florida. Hard to think of that though with sub-zero temperatures outside and the whole months of January, February and March standing in the way. So all we can do is look back at what fun we had. One of the best times we had was with Great-Grandpa's remote control fireplace. Grandpa had him convinced that he was putting it out with his red firetruck. It was a hoot to watch, especially since Oliver was so ferocious with his truck, aiming it at the fireplace and then at Grandpa with so much vigour. It was a short part of the trip but something everyone enjoyed and we can look back on and laugh. It's the simple things that make holidays fun and this was a perfect example. Christmas 2011 is now in the books and it was awesome!

Hosing down Grandpa!
Making sure he hits his mark!
The holidays are a time for libation...
...and to catch up on some sleep!
