Late December and January have been times of renovations in the house. Kayla and I are re-doing the bedrooms, starting with her office and then onto the upstairs guest bedroom.

December was a busy month, with us travelling to Alberta for my company’s AGM and annual party. We fit in some time visiting family and friends on either end as well. While it was cold in Alberta, it was colder in the Yukon, so we were looking for pretty places Continue Reading
