Kenny's arrive in Kenya



Many of you probably know that my brother Aaron and his family left for the mission field on Christmas morning. They flew out of Charlottetown airport at 6:00, travelled to Montreal, Toronto, London then then finally arrived in Nairobi this morning at 8:00am....Praise the Lord!

They are a little tired...but safe and sound in their new home! And God truly did protect them...of their 14 pieces of checked luggage, only ONE bag was missing!

Please continue to pray for them, and for all of their family members here in Canada, as we miss them SO much! (LOVE YOU GUYS!)

For continued progress on their journey, you can visit their blog at http://fourkennys.blogspot.com/

Christmas - with the Tremere's

Christmas day is usually a mini Marathon for Corey and I, and this year was no different.

We woke at 4:15...Corey had to go to the radio station to update the weather... we went to the Airport to see Aaron, Erica, Tristan and Emma ....they climbed aboard a plan, and were on their way to Africa.

Then we went and had a little nap, and spent the rest of the morning in Brackley opening presents and watching Ezabella and Penelope play with their Santa toys.

Around noon time, we went home, cleaned up, unpack the car full of gifts...repacked the car with presents for the evening, and opened our presents from each other.

I have to say...my husband is amazing! and he certainly did spoil me this year!

Around 3:45, we hit the road again and went to visit with the Tremere's...we had a wonderful turkey dinner and opened more presents.....here are a few pics from the Tremere Christmas



Jordan surprised Jayne with a beautiful new camera



Taylor got her pic violin and lots of webkins

Both Jayne and Steph were surprised with dishes

And we had a fun night, taking pictures and enjoying each others company...











Christmas - with the Kenny's

It has been an exciting Christmas...full of fun and games!

Christmas began back in Nov for us (you might remember my previous posting "The Earliest Christmas Ever". On Nov 11 Mom put up her first tree.

Aaron and Erica arrived for a visit on Dec 12th and they stayed right through till Christmas day.

The following pictures are from the second Kenny Tree Decorating Party.

Living Christmas Tree

So Last weekend I went to see the Living Christmas Tree in Moncton, and I ran into my old buddy Sarah Haines...I haven't seen here in ages! It was very exciting to look across the room and see her coming towards me!
For anyone who has never seen the Living Christmas Tree at Moncton, you really should go! I cried, I laughed....I was amazing!

These kids had white gloves, white hats and white socks on...and as they danced, the lights went out and black lights came on....so all you could see was their glowing hats, gloves, socks and ties! It was really cool!


The Angels were definitly my favorite part!

This is Sarah with one of the Angels she is friends with...by the way, these pictures are complements of Sarah....Thanks girl!

One thing I really liked about the Living Christmas Tree is that it didn't just end with the Christmas storey, it touched on Jesus's life, and then to the Cross and His resurection... This pictures is after Jesus has risen from the dead, and Him Assending back into Heaven with the angels!

Winter Hot tub

One of my favorite things about my parents hot tub is using it in the winter! We had a Hot Tub Happy Birthday Party for Justin this week, and here are a few pictures.

Our Family

Okay, so you all have met Mr. Eko....our budgie. Isn't he cute~ he looks like one of the toys! hehhehe... Tristan actually took this picture, and he did a great job!
So, Corey and I decided that Mr. Eko needed some siblings, so we decided to get two adorable bunnies....Two-bite and Browny (Corey named them....I think he was hungry at the time!)
Here are some pictures of Ezabella and Penelope meeting Two-bite and Browny.


Parade Day

So, I know the Santa Claus Parade was Nov 25...but I've been a little too busy to post..I'm so sorry.
Another bit of bad news, it was too dark for me to get a picture of Corey's float, so you don't get to see him in his beautiful Santa hat...oh well, maybe he'll ware it on Christmas ...and I'll post a picture then.
Love you all, take care!
The girls in their Santa hats!
