Back to school

The twins have entered school, we had a bumpy start with bussing issues and some miscommunication between the teacher & us but....it's all sorted out now. Cold season is upon us and both the kids missed school this week. It's been a busy september with school and bbq's etc. We said goodbye to Andrew's Aunt & Uncle they are leaving for Bermuda to work for 3yrs, exciting! Maybe within the next 3 yrs me & Andrew will go visit them :)

A night apart

Hunting season is fast aproaching so Andrew has taken Matthew and the camper and headed off to hunting camp to help set up, I have Erik for the night. Today we went to see a friend who is watching her brothers animals. The kids had fun jumping on the trampoline, feeding the chickens, looking at the horses and then we went for a walk, we got off the beaten path and found a few old abandoned cars, really cool.

Railroad Daze

This is only the 2nd time our town has celebrated this and it was our 1st time going, lot's of fun and we hope to do it every year. Lot's of trainsets to see and the real engine and caboose were open. We hope to go on an actual train ride someday when the boys are older.

Peach Blueberry Crumble Pie

I've been busy baking, I did a peach/berry pie, and last night a blueberry pie(no pic) We are having my family here for a bbq today so hopefully I will be back later to post some pics.

Fall is coming :)

I've been gone for a little bit, life has been busy. I have most of the twins school stuff bought, indoor shoes, outdoor shoes, fall/rain jackets, clothing, backpacks, lunch bags etc.....Recieved their bussing schedule will need to adjust the location of their pickup once winter hits but for now it's doable.

I'm really looking forward to fall, today it's really windy and cool feels like September already :)

The hubby picked a HUGE cuke out of garden yesterday it was gigantic I've never seen a cuke that big, I should have taken a pic but I didn't :(

Tried some new recipes last night although I didn't take any pics I should have because it turned out good and the twins even ate it!

It's midnight...

I can't sleep, hubby is snoring and I'm wide awake, but I'm going to post this and then try again to fall asleep. Today was a good day me and my sister in law (hubby had to work) took the boys to the beach it was a beautiful day perfect for being at the beach, me and hubby took them to the lake the day before.

We have spent a tonne of time at/in the lake this year so awesome! We are going to camp again this w/e which will be great for us as a family, as long as the weather is nice, nothing worse than being stuck in a cabin with cranky kids during icky weather.

Well I'm off to bed now.
Goodnight to anyone who dropped by my blog.
