Thanksgiving!

What a glorious Thanksgiving weekend it has been! We had sunshine in abundance and along with the beautiful weather, was wonderful memories in the making!

Saturday we hosted at our home Thanksgiving for Kevin's side of our family. The kids were able to take in the sunshine and all played so well. Skipping rope and on the playstructure and up and down the hill! Not to mention the jumping ball balloons courtesy of Aunt Karen! All seemed to enjoy the visit and day!

Sunday we went to my folks to celebrate with my side of our family. It was definitely a little hard thinking that last year my precious Gran was having her final meal, her Thanksgiving meal. She was close in our minds and hearts. The kids again were graced with such gorgeous weather and had a wonderful time going to the park and climbing Grannya and Poppy's tree! Whenever we arrive at their home, Mara-Grace is out and up the tree!!!

Monday was a time to rest a little. Again, we couldn't ignore the precious gift of another exceptional day of sunshine! We went to the cottage and Kev helped Dad out a little with framing where they park. We also were able to walk way out to the sandbar. This is unheard of! NEVER is the water this low... We had such a lovely walk. Hannah loved splashing along so much that she lost her footing and sat down in the river. Hmmmm:) Thankfully we had a change of clothes packed! Hannah and Mara-Grace then built 'castles' in the earth! Poor Victoria felt sick (sore throat, cold) and missed out on Monday's sunshine.

We are so thankful for the many gifts in our lives.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

xoxo
