Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is upon us... the trees are gorgeous colours of reds, oranges, yellows and browns.

We have been building large leaf piles in the front yard and jumping into them... and enjoying all the laughter that goes along with it. We may be having our last big water fights of the summer season... the backyard was ringing with laughter as we played with the water table which promptly tu.rned into a full scale water fight yesterday... if you were around you would have laughed... I know our neighbour Mel did... she stood there watching us with a big smile on her face. I like to spread laughter around... there never seems to be enough of it in our house!! lol!!

We will be having Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow and I for one have many things to be thankful for. It has been a year since we arrived in our house, and I love the way things are starting to shape up. My sons are happier than they have ever been, they are settling well into the community and are starting to grow into the amazing men they will be one day. I am settled into being a single mum and love spending time with my children. As with all families, we have our ups and downs, but at least the dishes get done, the house is clean once in a while and the laughter is outmatching the disagreements and for that I am thankful.

I'd liek to thank Muskoka Furniture for providing our Thanksgiving turkey today. We lined up and had a free turkey - and it will probably be great tomorrow once it is defrosted. What a great way to give to the community... stand in line for a bit, collect a ticket, and get a turkey if you are one of the first 100 people! :) My children will be enjoying tomorrow for certain!! :)

Bless all of you this thanksgiving holiday. I hope it will be happy for you... and that you don't groan too much from all the food!!

Happy Holidays,
