The Dutch Wooden Shoe Cafe

Booo, I missed Charlotte's yoga class this morning because of a delay on the Skytrain!  What I didn't know was that she was taking the same route too, so she was late to teach her own class.  I totally could have made it.  Double Booo!!!

A pair of grumpy pants: Sarah and Hollis.

The Pink Pantser Strikes Again!

The Emerys called for brunch at the Dutch Wooden Shoe Cafe.  This place has been here for 4 decades and it was my first time eating here!  If you look close enough, down at the far end is Kit.  LOL!

Brunch with Hollis, Brian, Shawn, and Sarah.

For days, I'd been craving Waffles and I finally got them!  They were so good and cheap at this place.  I'm coming back for more and that's a promise!  :-)

Big thanks to Shawn and Sarah for taking us here!!!

After-Christmas/Pre-New Year's Party with the Chanderlands

Awww...  Shayna sent me a photo of these horses from Fort Nelson.  :-)

Back home, I caught Elmer and Smayre admiring the MOMMIETRON's...

Bean Boots!

Anyways, it was time to get ready for tonight's party.  Pauline stated it was a 'dress to impress' affair, so I decided to finally wear one of the $5 shirts I bought from last year's set sales.  ;-)

Here they are: Anna, Joe, Anthony, Rich, and Etienne!

The Mrs. Cs...

Sheri and Joe...

I guess they don't ID here.

Food!

Cute!

Black seemed to be the theme amongst the women.

Angela, Marcie, and the Babe Pup...

Off the red carpet this time...

"Where's the pizza Colleen?"

Eeewww, the smoke pit.

My parents always told me to stay away from these type of girls.  ;-)

Dave and Dan...

See?  Black, black, black,

black, black, and black!

The baldies...

Add another.

Father and daughter...

Sisters in-law...

Bring on the group shots!

Gratitude to the Chamberlands and the Chands for hosting the soiree!!!  :-)

Last Game of 2012

I'm seeing double!

We're not really sure who won this game, but at least I got one past the Brick Wall aka Rodney tonight.  :-)

2012: Christmas with the Kleiders (Day 2)

We got a little visit from Lulu and her mom, Sara this afternoon!

For tonight's dinner, Dr. Kleider prepared some organic lamb!

Oh, there are a couple of barn cats here!?!

The feast is ready!

Quite honestly, the best lamb we've ever tasted!

Suzy looking for handouts...

Greek salad...

Suzy and Jess...

Here comes Diesel!

LOL, Team car2go!  We had to rent a couple of them for our trek to Fort Langley.  Thank goodness for this service!

Big thanks again to the Kleiders for having us over!!!  

Happy Holidays!!!  :-)

2012: Christmas with the Kleiders (Day 1)

We travelled to the land of the Horse Lords today.

Fatty helped Nicholas bring the other two horses inside.

Ohhh, it's Suzy!

She was tired from her walk.

Dr. Kleider was up to his cooking magic again!

Maybe we'll get to play this later?

Big Diesel and I shared the warmth by the fireplace.

Scout's turn.

Poor Kimmie.  She wasn't feeling well today.  :-(

Time to grab some ass because I see tights!

Lila got in there too!  LOL!

Dinner is served!

I sat with the kiddies!

Suzy and Diesel had some dinner too!

Grandmother and granddaughter...

Lila by the fire...

Clan Zacharias...

Time for some group shots by the Christmas tree.

Mad...

Happy again...

The Kleider Men...

All of these shots...

and recreate...

Illuminated by...

Christmas lights.

Do we still have time for...

one of these games?

Spanish Coffee!

Gratitude to Klan Kleider for the wonderful feast!!!  :-)
