Happy Thanksgiving, Eh!


Happy Thanksgiving fellow Canadians! We celebrated a day early, today, and had a great thanksgiving meal.


Things have been a little crazy around here, hence the many weeks between updates. I am in school full time and that is keeping me running in circles. I feel like all I do is sit at the computer and do homework. Yuck! Chandler is still in Lacrosse and improving each week. Kodie will be starting gymnastics soon. The kids are enjoying school. Chandler is finding Jr. High more challenging than elementary, but seems to be liking it quite well.


We had a great surprise yesterday. I was folding laundry down stairs when Jason's sister, Kelcie,

showed up with Ron's girls. We knew they were coming to visit so that wasn't the surprise. I was chatting with Kelcie and folding laundry when all of a sudden I was being mauled! I was wearing a hat and it was squashed down over my eyes so I couldn't see who it was. When he let go and I was able to see I was shocked to see my cousin Brandon standing in the living room! He came up for the weekend and Kelcie brought him over to see us! She keeps secrets well.

They all came with us to Chandlers lacrosse game, then Kelcie and the girls headed home. Brandon came back to our place and visited for a couple hours before taking off. It was so good to see him. What a great surprise!

Thanks for the reminder about Thanksgiving. I always forget about it until it's passed. We'll have to do something fun.

Hey you. Miss you guys. We might be coming up for Christmas. I am assuming you guys might go to Canada or Washington for it, but hopefully we can get together. Talk to you later.
