X-mas 2008

My fav pic: Paige teaching her students how to operate her new camera...if only you could here her, it was hysterical!










Another wonderful Christmas for the Hils/McCrea/Alexander family! We received great gifts but Paul outdid us all with getting a new (to us) truck this year! Our lease was up on our van so we got a great deal on a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 P/U Truck. Horrible on gas, terrible for the environment, but a dream come true for Paul. Since I've been working 2 jobs, he and the boys have really picked up the slack so how could I say no? We're all very happy with it, especially Paul! The boys got a great "haul", video games, computer games, High Hats and symbols for Kev (alias John Bonham), an external hard drive for Brad so they are both very happy! I bought a new dress for our annual New Years Eve festivities and lots of other great additions to my wardrobe with many gift certificates. Brad is busy turning his bedroom into a swinging bachelor pad with a new wall mounted TV from his dad and an old leather couch that friends were throwing out. Not sure how much time he'll have for TV/Video games in September when he starts Post secondary! He has applied to Ryerson for Film, Radio and Television Arts (same course his idols Heather and Ted graduated from) and Queens for Film. Should find out in the spring where he's been excepted, we'll keep you posted. We are all very thankful at this time for our wonderful family and friends and look forward to an exciting New Year!

Good luck, Bradolina.

You've got the skills, we'll see if they have the talent to recognize it!
