Our 9th Day of Christmas

On our ninth day of Christmas we drove Candy Cane Lane.

We tried to walk but that was insane.

We went Sunday when temperatures hovered around -20C but felt more like -30C with windchill.

If you're still planning to head down, don't forget your food bank donation {like we did}.

We owe you big time food bank.

There will be much canned tuna, peanut butter and pasta coming your way soon.

This is the last picture you'll be seeing of these Edward-Scissorhand-esque bangs on Ced.

We caved tonight and took his first lock of hair.

 Don't worry, the curls in the back are safe.

So yes, we have given him somewhat of a mullet.

And he's workin' it. 

This is my absolute favourite.

Cute {fairly symmetrical} house, check. 

White lights caressed in snow, check. 

Wreath on red door, check. 

Cat in window, check.

 Many of the old stand-bys were there but there were some new appearances {to us at least} that blew us away.

 On the drive home we were pulled in by the lights at Government house and just had to stop for a few more bone-chilling minutes.

These kids are such troopers in the cold but we're all glad that the temperatures spiked to a balmy -2C today and will stay up for the remaining days of Christmas.
