Hi all:
It sounds from
Aunt Monica's comments that Aunt Patty has been ill...sorry to hear
that...hope
you are feeling much better and that all those Kingstons and those
associated
with them out there are mending. We will be thinking about
you.
We had a lovely snowfall overnight and early this morning...about 8 cm
or so...went for a walk to the shore early this a.m. and it was truly
lovely.
Love to all,
Brenda
Hi All:
I have happy,
if shocking news, the Al Kingston family is expecting their second set
of twins! Mark and Jennifer just found out yesterday that they will be
doubling the their number of children. This time, the twins are
expected
to be identical. After Benjamin and Monika were born, Jennifer
got
lots of practise looking after baby twins while also managing 2 year
old
Tyler so I think she do fanastically. Congratulations Jennifer
and
Mark!!! I hope Mark has been able to get himself up off the floor by
now!
JoAnn
Congratulations
Mark & Jennifer. This is fantastic news! I am so glad to be
an
aunt again and again. :) Love, Mary Ellen.
Hi
All: Pat gets home this morning to begin his Christmas holidays.
He and I leave for Calgary this afternoon for his company's Christmas
party. It should be fun. We are having a murder mystery
night. We have to be back for Monika and Benjamin's hockey game
on Staurday, so we can't have too much fun. We are going to the
Nutcracker on Sunday with some friends and their children. It has
become an annual tradition for our little family since going with Mary
Ellen and her Rebecca two years ago. I think that Benjamin is
finally over his nervousness about the Mouse King. It should be a
more relaxing weekend. (The children and I had three parties, two
hockey games, tae kwon do and church to get to last weekend.) It
will be good to have a second parent around again too! I hope everyone
is enjoying the Advent season! JoAnn

Merry Christmas everyone,
I hope everyone has a fun and relaxing holiday. I have only another day
at the College and then I will be heading out for a long vacation. I
can't wait. I am much more tired this year than any others.
Katie-Rose has a cast on her right arm this Christmas. She fell and
broke her baby finger last week. In mid-September she broke her 2 front
teeth off at a playground. OUCH! She is really accident prone. I think
it is because she is a 4 year old in a 7 year old's body. Her cast is
like a weapon of mass destruction. Rebecca has been accidentily hit a
few times while they have been dancing and her bangs with it against
her bedroom wall in the middle of the night make me jump out of bed.
Ahhhh, perhaps that is the reason I am so tired. :) Well I best be off.
Have a great break....ME

Hello All,
Hard to believe a week on the Miramichi has gone by so quickly and
heading out to the Moncton airport in the morning. A great feast (feast
#6 in 7 days) here this evening with Father Broderick, Carmel and Mary,
George and Stephanie and all the Vickers clan. About 20 in attendance.
Like eating with a congregation. Food was good although I am biased as
the chief cook on duty for most of the day...:-)
John
It has been the mildest xmas holiday in 117 years for the Maritimes.
Never thought it would be milder in NB for Christmas than the west
coast.

Hi:
Monika and I are home tonight alone. Pat and Benjamin are off to the
Oilers' game tonight thanks to John Kingston. John could not use his
tickets since he and family left for Las Vegas today to visit Beth and
her family. Benjamin was sooo excited to get the tickets! I am sure he
will not forget this night.
Dad is recovering from gall bladder surgury that he had earler today.
He has had quite the year with operations on his heart, knee (less than
5 weeks ago) and now this one. The Lord willing he'll be up and about
soon and not have to go under the knife again for a long time! JoAnn
