Thanksgiving Weekend

We are Thankful for everything, especially our family and good health! We had a great Thanksgiving at Uncle Adam's and Uncle Dave's house. The boys fell asleep on the way over there so we let them sleep in the car and when they woke up- watch out- they were a bit cranky- in fact Jackson lied down in the middle of the kitchen floor to "rest his eyes", but after a bit of playing with the dogs and going to the park they were in in full swing again. Both Shane and Jackson had a great time on the stairs at the Uncle's home, in fact they loved going down stairs and playing with Uncle Dave as he cleaned up. Dave gave them Breakable glasses with some bubbly water and animal crackers and the boys sat at the end of the island ready to play with the water for about 30 minutes!

On Saturday we played with Aiden at Beaver Brooke then went to Auntie Kim's house for a fall celebration with Kim and Cheryl's families. All afternoon Jackson continued to ask "we go to auntie Kim's house now? " and when i pulled into Nana's driveway he threw a fit but calmed down when I told him we were going to Kim's. Auntie Kim had birthday cupcakes for the boys. They loved signing Happy Birthday!

We also visited the Decordova Sculpture park- it was an interesting place, the boys weren't too into the art but liked trying to climb on the sculptures. Sunday was a daddy day- they went to the park with Daddy and then Jackson stayed home with mommy while Daddy and Shane went grocery shopping. I have to say that it was weird only having one of them at home, it was rather quite and we were a bit at a loss at first without Shane there but finally Jackson decided to color and we played lots of music and read lots of books. Daddy rocked that Sunday. We finished off the Sunday by raking leaves with daddy! (a favorite past time for the boys).
