Pumpkin Picking





Today was the annual pumpkin picking day. We had so much fun. We got some huge pumpkins and the plans are in the works for the great designs they are planning to carve. Craig is pulling out the dremel this year, so I'm sure they'll be great. The weather was perfect and there were lots of people at Pingles. It adds to the atmosphere when there are lots of people. We took the tractor ride down into the fields and walked and walked until we found the pumpkins that we wanted. We then had our annual photo shoot sitting on an old piece of machinery. I think the shots turned out well. The first picture of Sterling is my new favorite. Love it!
We came home this afternoon and had a "movie afternoon". We watched Nancy Drew. We have seen it before but it is really good so none of minded watching it again. I had a card to make for a co-worker, Kaedo had a homework assignment and Craig had a football game to watch. Sterling spent the time on iTunes searching for free games for his iPod. We had supper and now I am doing this, Craig is watching football, Sterling is watching a show and Kaedo is hanging out in his room.
Back to work and school tomorrow. The weekends go so fast.

GREAT, GREAT, GREAT photos!! Have fun carving those pumpkins and hopefully we'll see the creations on the blog. Love the family photo - you all look wonderful.

We just got home from having our coffee break after playing walleyball. Us girls haven't played since June 7th when I broke my foot. I was taking it pretty easy today but we had lots of fun & laughter.

This week things should slow down abit and no more travelling till we head to Kelly & Petrica's on the 8th of November.

Have a great week!

BIG HUGS TO ALL!

The pumpkin carving kind of crashed this year didn't it Craig? I know, you'll have thousand of excuses as to why they look so rotten..no pun intended.

The photos of the family are awesome, glad you all had such a nice day.

We had a busy weekend getting the motor home winterized on the outside and summerized on the inside. We moved our "down south" clothes into it and cleaned it all up, now we're just waiting for the day we leave. Sunday evening we bowled with a group from my work and had pizza and deep fried everything. As usual, the Sunday morning chat was great, they're getting longer and longer. After that, we talked to our cousins in Spain. It was 30C there, they apologized for having to tell us that.

Love to all

Hey guys thanks for the bday gift - it is awesome. Sorry I did not call but it got late (time change). I will see if I can catch you at home tomorrow. Just so you know it was addressed to 526 Laurier and our address is 529. They actually started to pen it and then realized it was not thiers. Hopefully they did not discard the other things that went missing in the past if the address was the problem. Anyway we can talk tomorrow. thanks again. Not sure about the OLD MAN KLASSEN remark. Remember Craig you are only 3 years away!!!!!!!
