Thanksgiving is over and halloween approaching




thanksgiving was very busy, we had 3 dinners to attend, Andrew went hunting friday & saturday came home sunday. Saturday was our nephews b-day then my mother in laws turkey dinner, sunday turkey dinner at granny's, monday turkey dinner at our house. Now it will soon be halloween, time is going by very fast. The kids are enjoying school and I've only had a few phone calls home, I think they are starting to settle in. Had a bumpy start with Erik being mean to the other kids. Went to my first school council meeting, I like that our school is small. The older cousins have offered to take the twins trick or treating which I'm thrilled about since I really like handing out candy. Lot's of exciting things happening in our life, more to come.

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.

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 :(
