Tuesday, December 22 and Thursday, December 24, 2020
The COVID virus/epidemic in Canada had a huge impact on our traditional Christmas activities. Because Christmas get-togethers were not advised our family was not able to gather at 9 Lambert as usual. Papa and Uncle Craig arranged a ZOOM conference/dessert together for Christmas Eve. Everyone agreed that we would have a family Zoom conference including dessert and gift opening of Craig and Pamela’s gifts for the boys.
Uncle Craig and Aunt Pamela had mailed their Christmas gifts
for the boys to 9 Lambert Dr.so Grandpa, Barbara and Grant delivered these on
December 22 along with their gifts for Kirk/Karine and family. Kirk collected some fresh eggs from their
chickens for Grandpa. Barbara said the
boys could each open one small gift she had brought – cast iron pans for baking
brownies. They decided to save the
brownies for the Christmas Eve dessert/Zoom call.
The Zoom call was a great success, featuring the brownies made by the boys, a sweet dessert with maple syrup made by Karine and a photo of their newly born puppy they would bring home in January. Kirk was able to set up virtual Christmas hats and other disguises for the boys to wear. Craig and their cat Cosette looked on. Then there were Christmas crackers. Grant and Barbara opened three Christmas elves from Karine, ready to put on their tree. Finally, the gifts for the boys. Lots of excitement! Merry Christmas to all…
