Christmas Saga: Part 2

Welcome to today's edition of our holiday adventures, entitled



Every Christmas my parents do a "Santa present" for all of the Thibatots. Last year it was the puppy, one year it was a computer, etc. This year my parents gave us a Christmas break vacation to northern Minnesota to go snowmobiling, snowshoeing, stay at a cool cute cabin by a frozen over lake... and go on a sleigh ride!

That's right. Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh. Except in our case, the sleigh was pulled by two very large horses. Oh the excitement.


 We got all loaded up with blankets and everything, and our friendly drivers took us all over a snowy path through the quiet forest. It was gorgeous!
 After the ride our hosts invited us into their warm house for some homemade hot cocoa. Very atmospheric.

 And to make this story even more exciting, while we were driving up to the place, we came around a curve and there right in front of us was a moose! A huggggge moose! We watched it lumber to the other side of the road and disappear into the forest. Here moosy moosy moosey!

Here's the preview for the next episode... two words: Bar Mitzvah
