Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas dear reader(s)! I hope you all had the loveliest of lovely Christmas Eve's, with lots of family and friends and, of course, yummy food. And music. Music is good too. Personally, my Christmas eve, as per tradition, involved some rowdy versions of 'Hotel California' (correct lyrics not mandatory), 'Ring of Fire' (hand clapping mandatory), 'Case of You' (for those who insist on hearing at least one decent sung song), and, last but not ever forgotten, 'Santa Baby,' sung by two very reluctant twenty-somethings. Ah yes, my family is in fact very nerdy when it comes to singing songs in large groups.

Anyways, just wanted to say Merry Christmas. Have a good one!

(we listened to this on the way home tonight, and it's a fabulous song. That I may have mentioned before. Oops.)

Sigh No More by Mumford & Sons

Back in Vancouver!... Temporarily.

So, I just got back from a week away at my favorite place in the world, where I was busy reuniting with family I haven't seen for most of my life, spending time on the beach, and absorbing lots of music. Oh, and taking pictures. So many pictures. It was probably (no, definitely) the best Hornby experience ever, and I've had a lot. I'm off to Vernon tomorrow for a while for my cousins wedding, but I'll leave with a play list, "Hornby 2010".
Jasper- Aidan Knight with Dan Mangan (Most catchy chorus ever)
Sigh No More- Mumford & Sons (give it some time to get better and more intense)
Fake Plastic Trees- Radiohead (Always a classic)
Look At Miss Ohio- Gillian Welch (I couldn't find a non-live version)
Tik-Tok- Ke$ha (I'm not saying it's good..)
Sexy Chick- David Guetta (Fist Pumpin')
False Creek Change- Said The Whale (Again, only a live version)



So many pictures, but I think this is one of my favorites. (with my new lens! That I have used quite a bit, and am totally happy with)
