Happy Turkey Day


I'm a bit early - but we'll be going to Regina for Thanksgiving so I'll post now!!

We are looking forward to going home! Thursday we'll drive to Regina and go straight to Jenn & Matt's to meet Alyssa.

Friday early morning we're driving to Saskatoon - Allan will go to a meeting (that as you probably know we're very excited about!) and the girls and I will go straight to my Mom & Frank's acreage. Since last time we've visited they've aquired 2 horses and a handful of kittens. Should be a fun visit :D

Late Friday night we'll drive back to Regina where we'll stay at Allan's parents until Monday.

Saturday I'm doing lunch with the girls at The Last Straw and then we're going shopping. American Eagle here I come!! Amber and I are also going to a Travel Agent to inquire about the Vegas trip we're planning for this spring.

Saturday night I am going to a Pub Crawl with Amber, Julie, Michelle and some others. Should be a blast!!

Sunday Laura and I are going to go for a Sushi lunch (Sushi in Regina - might be interesting ;)) and then do some shopping. Sunday night is Thankgiving dinner. I am hoping my Epicure will be in so I can make stuffing with my new Sage & Cranberry stuffing mix I bought!!

Monday we come home and it will be sad as we won't be back until Christmas. :(

On a side note - I think I am going to take some University courses. I don't know exactly what to take. Some sort of business management, maybe Human Resource Management - I'm still in the early stages of planning. Just when we thought we were finished with University in our family ....

First Day of Grade 1


Madison started Grade 1 today!! Here is a picture of my grown up girl!

Mom's New House












My Mom and Frank moved in August. They bought an acreage 20 minutes south of Saskatoon.


They currently have 4 dogs, 2 cats and plan to have a few horses by the end of the fall.




Here are some pics of the new house, pets and land!




Tinkertown








In mid August Allan's sister Jennifer and her boyfriend Matt came to visit, along with their kids Haylee and Tristin. We went to Tinkertown and the cousins all had a blast! (Ok, so did the Moms and Dads!!)




A Trip to Morning Sound Farm






In July we went to Morning Sound Farm, which is a farm just outside of Winnipeg. You get to ride horses, pet animals, see a goat being milked, learn about chickens and eggs, and many more activities!! It was a lot of fun, here are the pictures. (You'll see Madison loves to pose and be in photos while Annika is at a stage where she wants nothing to do with the camera!)
