Hi ,this is Mariska writing the blog today again as Emily is tired again tonight. This morning dad got up nice and early to make bacon and eggs for us all while we had a lie in. After breakfast at about 8:30 we rang everybody to say Merry Christmas. Granny and Granpa sounded very MERRY on skype and liked looking at our very white teeth?! After speaking to everybody we opened the presents that we had brought over from Scotland (thank you for my presents granny and Granpa). At 10:15am we went to the Hyatt hotel the dog sledding company picked us up
there and took us to there centre where we got our boots on and warmed up before going out into the cold.When we went outside we played with the dogs for awhile and we also took pictures of the dogs my favorite husky was 'Avalanche', he was white and was at the back of the pack. I got to control the huskies by myself.I really enjoyed going down steep hills with huskies. While someone else was mushing the huskies I sat in the trailer which was pulled by the skidoo. At the end inside the building there was a baby husky it was so cute and fluffy. I really enjoyed dog sled

At 4pm we headed off for a drink in the oldest saloon in town (kids were allowed in!) and then off to the Hearthstone restaurant for our Christmas meal - not turkey, but large steaks and rack of lamb and shrimps for the kids were order of the day. Thomas was very happy to finish off
his meal with a very large chocolate pudding rather than the usual Christmas one!
his meal with a very large chocolate pudding rather than the usual Christmas one! Tomorrow we all leave after breakfast for a half day and night in Denver. We will have to hire a wheelchair for Stuart as it will be rather embarrassing having him crawl along the sidewalks!!"
Thankyou for all the funny pictures. Chloe says she liked the one the one where Uncle Stuart was in the skiing bag! Flora says I really liked the Huskies!!
