What a great way to spend our Thanksgiving, up at the lakehouse with Ron and Menna and their extended family. A picturesque setting and amongst friends and family, we couldn't have asked for more. Isabelle and Oliver had many playmates, young and old, and Mom and Dad had some great people to catch up with. Everyone here is on baby watch, as Auntie Rhiannon is just over a week away from her due date. We are all so excited!
Of course, the dinner was an absolutely fantastic mix of veggies, stuffing, potatoes, cauliflower puree and the star of the show, the turkey himself. (When told earlier that day that we were going to have a turkey, Isabelle exclaimed, "We're getting a pet turkey!?"). We capped off the meal with a nice walk up the country road, jazzed up by a scavenger hunt organized by Katarzyna. We quickly replaced those burned calories with dessert before we got the kids in their PJs for the ride home. Thanksgiving is such a great holiday, it's all about food and family, and we enjoyed both in spades. Can't wait until next year!
Bobbling for apples, usually done without a hockey stick!
Isabelle and Oliver were saying "It's so easy, Trystan!"
Success times two!
Craft time with Kitty-Kat

The Gatineaus in the fall never disappoint
The hunt is on!

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!
