Sunday at Aunt Mare & Uncle Doug's


WOW Aunt Mare, you treated us all to a delicious turkey/ham dinner once again...mmm, mmm good! It was fun to get together and wonderful not having to cook! Check out her new kitchen decor...pretty snazzy eh? Too bad you weren't down this weekend Kate...maybe next?

All in a Saturday...


Kevin, Carole, sweet Ashleigh and Baby Jaden were down for the weekend. It was nice to see them again, boy did Jaden ever grow since Thanksgiving! As you can see for yourself (above) he is SO cute! A replica of his beautiful sister Ash. Nicole and Dad joined us all for pizza for supper - thanks Dad...and Kev and Carole!

The kids hanging with Aunt Nicole. Nicole was whipped after working all day and then graciously helped me clean my office...as did my helpful bro Kev. Thanks so much guys!!

Getting the house all ready for Christmas

Mags, Trent and I made up 5 urns with winter greens and the "fresh" spruce wreath on the hosue...we were impressed with how they turned out!

More pics to follow tomorrow...Aunt Mare has invited us all over for turkey dinner...can't wait Mare!

How true...

Waiting is the decision to trust God even though the circumstances are not turning out the way we want, and may never turn out the way we would choose.

Leaves, leaves and more leaves!!!

Maggie performing amazing stunts...as I was raking leaves up for the kids to jump in I realized how much fun kids (we) have with the simplest things in life (in nature I should say)...a pile of leaves, a climbing tree, a sandbox, a foot of snow, water!! The kids (cousins Jordan, Kenzie and Keegan too) played for at least 3 hours in that monstrous pile of leaves and are eagerly awaiting the chance to spend countless hours in the"soon to come" snow...all too soon lol! and on the ice rink. Well, I'll gladly let the Playstation and toys collect dust if they are outside, actively enjoying eachother's company, imaginations and best of all the fresh air!! (no offense Kate - she's in the toy industry ;))
