Just a few photos from Halloween ........ very, very, very, very, very late :)

Happy Halloween .... 6 weeks late!!

Lantern Festival and Halloween .. in December??

How did we end up getting so far behind?? Here we sit mid December and as I come on to post our latest pix ... I realize that I have somehow forgotten to post anything from the Lantern Festival . and have completely omitted Halloween!??!?

Well, if i am going to be honest, I know exactly how this happened ..... I went back to work in September :( And although it has not been as bad as some had predicted ... all the little things .. like blog posting!! .. has had to fall to the wayside. Oh well, we all have to have priorities and our priority has become to live the events rather than write about them!!

So, you will have to be patient with us as we post things several months late in an attempt to keep this blog rolling along. On the positive end, today we are experiencing a huge snow storm here with over 15 cms already on the ground and predictions of up to 15 more tonight and more again tomorrow .. but the following photos are of October, where you could see the grass, sit outside in a shirt and no one was thinking of shovels, mittens or snow days! :)

Pumpkin picking 2007

We enjoyed a great day at the pumpkin patch. The weather was great, kiddies and adults had a fantastic time. Thanks to C-A, B and S for joining the us!

August/September Video

Here's our long awaited August and September video! We're running at our consistent 2 month delay again...it's been a busy fall. Highlights of this video include the Richmond Fair, camping with friends at Voyageur, apple picking and an end-of-summer family BBQ...

Apple Picking

What a fabulous weekend! The weather this last week has been unbelievably warm for the month of September ... so having several outdoor activities planned for Saturday and Sunday seemed just meant to be.

We went apple picking with friends on Saturday. The orchard was busy as everyone was out enjoying the sun .. and the apples! A family bar-b-q was set for Sunday, which was also really nice.

Let's hope that October is 1/2 as nice as September has been!

July video

While the summer is quickly disappearing, what better time to look back on the action-packed, sweltering-hot month of July? The highlights of the month were; Canada Day in Ottawa, L's Birthday and a camping trip to StoryLand with friends. Enjoy....
