January<\/strong> – We were visiting Australia for the first half of the month. The photo here is Finn with his great-grandfather (who didn’t make it through to 2012, but at least they got to meet).
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

February<\/strong> – Skiing, friends visiting, baby swimming lessons… the photo was taken at the Canmore Nordic Centre, where I spent a lot of time towing the Chariot around
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

March<\/strong> – I bought a 29er mountain bike after admiring it in the bike shop for weeks. But then there was nothing but snow to ride on, so I waited impatiently and skied some more. And we did our first overnight ski trip to a hut with Finn (to Elizabeth Parker Hut – photo taken just after leaving the trail-head).
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

April<\/strong> – Still heaps of snow around. We tried to bike, but there ended up being snow, and we tried to hike, but there ended up being snow, so it was more skiing. And a Winter Triathlon at the Nordic Centre that involved biking on snow anyway. I discovered the world of Waldorf dolls, and made my first one.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

May<\/strong> – Brendan took off on his mountain-biking in the USA trip, and the hiking and biking season began in earnest.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

June<\/strong> – Climbing, biking and hiking. Repeat.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

July<\/strong> – Started off with a trip to the Okanagan, camping and visiting wineries. Riding lots of single trail, training for the 24 Hours of Adrenaline (mountain bike race in Canmore – photo taken at the transition zone). There were a lot of mountains hiked as well.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

August<\/strong> – Iceland! And Finn turned one! And started to walk! (Photo from the highlands in the middle of Iceland)
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

September<\/strong> – A lot more hiking, and a lot of nice warm 25oC days. And I made my first pie.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

October<\/strong> – A visit from one of Alex’s brothers, and some last ditch attempts to fit in some hiking and biking before the weather turned to the worse for good. And a lot of doll-making. Finn started using walking as his regular mode of transportation.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

November<\/strong> – First ski of the season, then a last minute plan to spend a few weeks in Australia – starting with the disastrous 65 hours in transit flight epic, followed up with the gastro-bug of doom. The photo was taken at my parent’s farm.
\n\"\"
\n <\/p>\n

December<\/strong> – Back to Canada, where the winter has been suspiciously warm. Snow has been skied on, we had our first Christmas tree, and Finn met Santa for the first time and merely stared at him with suspicion, rather than crying like most of the small kids.
