We were up at Granny's cottage yesterday for our annual 'Higgy/Lee' dinner, which was as usual, entirely chaotic and hilarious. And it was beautiful up there. You drive 40 minutes north of here and the autumn leaves are in an entirely different class. So beautiful. Of course, I didn't take any pictures, but my mama is emailing me some, so I'll add them when I get them (just for you, Joan. I would TOTALLY be missing the fall and the leaves too, if I were you. Guess you'd better hurry up and move back to Ontario!).
After all the fun and food yesterday, we had another T-G'vin' day today, with Rob's parents and our friends, Joe & Trina. Lots more food (and if possible, a pumpkin cake ice-cream roll dessert that rivals pie).
Here are a few pics from our pre-meal walk:
Millbrook is lookin' good, isn't it? This last picture (above) is pretty much the view from our bedroom window. Dreamy! (Now, of course, in all of this 'love love love the fall talk', I'm purposely ignoring the whole '-2 degrees' thing for overnight tonight. Am NOT ready for that autumnal-reality yet!)
I hope EVERYONE is having a fabulous weekend and is taking the opportunity to be thankful for whatever it is you're thankful for. Me? It's family, food, and fun... and of course miss Evy, who I love more each day.
She's changed so much since last Thanksgiving, when we were still in the midst of colic-hell. Of course, I loved her more each day then too, but it was mostly 'cause each day that passed was one day closer to the end of the screaming insanity (her screaming, my insanity)! She has been so good lately - it's a joy to spend every day with her, and I'm pretty darn thankful for that.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
