A trip to the Pumpkin Patch!

We headed off to the Pumpkin patch last week on a sunny Wednesday!
We wanted to be sure we went before the rains came!!
The kids had fun as always and got some great pumpkins!

It lasted awhile......

I am a good updater, aren't I? LOL
Life is busy with 2 monkeys, a hard working husband, 2 dogs and other animals (including the newest Hamster). And now with me working a little...... phew. Not much time for blogging.
But I am determined to get back to this, mainly to keep family members far away updated on our happenings and pics of the munchkins!

Logan is loving grade 2. He has the same teacher as last year which he is thrilled about it! And he is doing so well! The tutoring we had done this summer has really given him the confidence he needed with his reading! So far all spelling tests have come home with a big 10/10 and his reading has progressed 5 levels! WOO HOO! Way to go Logan!! Soccer is going really well this year too! He has some great friends on his team and loves to play!

Makenna is doing really well with her second year of preschool! She sure loves the teachers.... and they love her! She has made some new little friends this year, sadly she will not go to school with any of them next year as the preschool is on the other side of town! But thats okay... she has a tonne of friends through Logan's friends and such. So kindergarten should be an easy transition for us. Makenna has also started soccer this year.... not quite as keen as her brother, but she is getting there.

Noel and I are well! Our trip to Vegas was a much needed rest from our regular daily activities and some time to just concentrate on us. What a great time we had with our good friends Lorne and Catrina. We can't wait to do it again!
Work is going good... you can tell winter is coming and with the market the way it is... things have slowed a tad. But I am sure it will pick up in no time. I have taken on some part time work doing some merchandising for some major companies such as Loreal, Johnson and Johnson, Hallmark etc. I love it! Its during hours that Noel is home to watch Makenna and its contract work... so they just call when they need me. Works great!

I will leave you with a taste of the pictures we had done by my friend Carol! What a fantastic photographer she is.... if you want to see her work and maybe book a sitting for yourself check out her website here............... http://carolkerfootphotography.blogspot.com/


I promise to keep updating!! Oh and the puppy's name is.......... Cosmo
