Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone had as nice a Thanksgiving as we did today. Other than my turkey being done about an hour and a half too soon (how does that happen anyway???) and being maybe a tad dry, we had a great day - a nice and relaxing day. In another half hour once my kids are sound asleep in their beds it will be an even nicer and more relaxing evening. *smile*

The holiday season has definitely begun! We have been super busy the past few weeks - hence the lack of blogging. Hopefully I'll manage to be a bit better about keeping up with the posts and pictures throughout the season but as I glance mentally at my calendar I know it will be tough. Lots going on!

I won't try to recap in detail all that we have been up to the past couple of weeks because for starters, most would probably find it rather boring! But here are some photos of some of the more interesting happenings in our household.

Samantha has been her usual silly (and often messy) self. I think there is a good possibility she will be a comedienne when she grows up - or at least a class clown in school...

We carved probably our best pumpkins ever...

Halloween and Trunk-or-Treat fun...

And most recently, enjoying some family time at our church Fall Festival in the birdhouse competition. We won the award for "A Country Retreat for Those with Extravagant Tastes".

Now as I finish this blog post, the girls are all snuggled in their beds and I'm enjoying the quiet - aside from the background sounds of Ed playing his "Call of Duty" game. *smile*

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
