So today we celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving! I know that seems a little odd for all of you Americans that check in on us, but oh well. We had a fun day spending it with Grandparents and family eating lots of good food as well as helping my in-laws paint their house. The next door neighbors had a fire in their garage a little while back that ended up doing some damage to their house, and to top it off they couldn't match the siding they had because it was too old. So lucky them new siding and roof! I will have to put up a picture when it is all done! I have to say that I am all turkey'd out. I am glad that Christmas is still a couple of months away otherwise I don't think that I could handle it. We also celebrated Rawley's birthday again. We had one at my mom's house on Saturday when we celebrated Thanksgiving with her and my brothers and the rest of the gang. And of course the official one with just our little family on his exact birthday. All in all a great Thanksgiving for us. I always enjoy time spent with the people that we love. I love the fall, I think that it is my favorite time of year. When the leaves change color, the air is crisp and cool and running through the crunchy leaves. Here are some pictures of our adventures from the weekend!
The first of 2 cakes. A hairy spider!

Running through the leaves.

Emmy had the time of her life raking up leaves but the rake was a little big for her!

Wall-E for the Wii. Rawley was so excited! Thanks Grandma and Papa!

Shake and go Doc Hudson from Uncle Brock and Auntie Tasha.

The second cake. A ghost cupcake cake. It was my first attempt, but I think it turned out okay!

Eve from Wall-E from Grandma and Grandpa! Thanks!

I don't know what will happen in future years, but I know that multiple birthdays will probably not go over to well with the other kids. We will have to wait and see! All in all a great holiday and I am very glad that the chaos in our house is over till at least next week!

Your cakes are really cute. We Americans tend to forget other countries have their own holidays too.:) Native to Cardston with an American mother, I loved having two Thanksgivings growing up. Rawley is a cutey! I say you can never have too many birthday parties.
I just want you to know that I thought of you on Monday. I really did! Happy Thanksgiving guys!! Too bad we have to wait another month for our Turkey. :(
Sometimes I wish our Thanksgiving were further away from Christmas...You Canadians have it all figured out!
