busy

I was going to update with pics this time, but I didn't didn't have the time to devote to playing on the desktop this week.

We've had a busy week with Daddy gone to Winnipeg for a retreat, but we got through it. Little boys overtired and sugared from a visit with Amma (what good are grandparents if they can't spoil their grandkids?) and a little girl whose favorite spot is on Daddy's chest made for a bit of an interesting week.

There are bits of sticks on my counter. These are dinosaur bones, not really sticks at all. We've made telescopes, drawn pictures, and read lots of books.

Took out 1/4 of a turkey yesterday for Thanksgiving. Members of the congregation gave us a turkey cut into quarters so it would fit in a freezer. This is a HUGE bird! I'm also going to try my hand at pumpkin pie this year. Should be fun!

Grandpa and Grandma from Manitoba are going to be visiting this weekend. The kids are so excited! Every morning this week, the Boy has said he hears Grandpa's feet. Alternating which Grandpa's feet he hears, but "I hear Grandpa's feet" is so cute!
