Happy Thanksgiving

As tradition holds we spent Thanksgiving in Brooks with Todd's parents.  And as always we had a great time.  Ham dinner one night and then stuffed with turkey last night.  Todd's sister and her two lovely daughters also made the trip so Emily and Liam were in extra heaven.

Growing up Todd spent a lot of time at a friend's farm just outside of Brooks.  We took the kids out there, Liam to target practice and Emily to find barnyard kittens.  They were both enamoured with three horses that came to them willingly.

Gramma J's pumpkin patch - the yard was filled with 27 pumpkins

Picking out his pumpkin; of course the biggest one


Fall colors

Love it

Here we go

Emily took a turn

Running back to the horses


I had to laugh - Emily was braiding its mane

Horse whisperer


Once again following them back

Waiting for dark and grandpa's traditional fireworks (sshhh)

Happy Thanksgiving

Senior Timbit

It has begun.  Evaluations are over and Liam is now officially a Senior Timbits - Red team.



Fall Fun

We have been spoiled by a warm fall.  Emily and Liam are taking full advantage of being able to enjoy the outdoors - biking, rollerblading and just being kids.  I just hope the weather holds until Halloween.
