Christmas 2020 was interrupted by COVID and Christmas 2021 was interrupted by province wide flooding so we were looking forward to a 'normal' Christmas which typically means Barb and Reg come down to visit. They managed to get into town just in time. The next day we got almost 13 inches of snow which is a lot for the lower mainland. It came down mostly overnight which meant it was a lot of shovelings the next day. The weather turned on a dime however with freezing rain turning to rain just a few days after Christmas. Lots of snow for Christmas and I think it officially counted as a white Christmas because YVR got a few flakes of snow before it turned to rain on Christmas Day.
Kerry and I went light on the presents this year because we have some big trips planned for 2023 but the kids felt they had no such restriction. Callie set the budget by requesting an e-reader and Carter came close behind with a detailed list that matched that budget. The only thing that wasn't ideal was that due to issues I will write about in the next post we only had a single shower in the house. We had started a bathroom renovation in the fall with the hopes that it would be complete but things didn't go as planned. It wasn't too bad though since everyone had very different shower schedules. Overall it was a great Christmas!
