TOBOGGANING!!

One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to go tobogganing, and I enjoy taking the kids each year when we can. This year without a helper I was unsure where we were going to toboggan that I could do it all on my own. Thankfully my mom lent a helping hand and we all had a great time. I even got on a few times... guess you are never too old (or too heavy) to go tobogganing!

Here are some pictures of the fun

Tinkertoys

Earlier this week I rotated the toys in the play room. Its almost like Christmas when the kids see the new toys that are out for the next few weeks. This week I decided to try the Tinker toys with the kids, almost a couple of them are a bit under the age, I figured with supervision it would be OK. Well I had a Dr's appt so my mom came and watched the kids and they had a great time building with the tinker toys. Here are some pictures of the fun.

HIBERNATING

Today B and I went to the walmart Fun factory and choose a pretty bear to fill and call our own. We got him some nice silk pj's and filled him up nice and full. Then we coloured a box (den) and tucked him in for his long winters nap. It was a lot of fun. We named him Nate from "hiberNATE" LOL pretty cute I thought

First Fun in the Snow Day

Even though numbers are a bit low right now, you would think I would have more time to update the blog. but instead I am trying to get all my paperwork and organizing completed and so anyhow, a few weeks ago we had a big snow storm and so the kids of course wanted to get out there and have some fun. here are some pictures.

FALL FUN!

Well my favorite thing to do with the kids in the Autumn is to go and play in all the fallen leaves. Most years we don't get much chance because it rains so much. This morning however we had a great opportunity and I didn't forget my camera! I love the smiling faces and the colours of the leaves!

Pumpkin Patch

As we do every year, this year we went to the pumpkin patch to get some pumpkins for the daycare Halloween party. We only have R & B with us this year but it was still lots of fun. Of course it was absolutely freezing out that day!

CORN MAZE

I know I haven't posted in awhile, but we have been super busy here and time has just gotten away from me. Earlier in October we took the kids to a local corn maze. it was so much fun, there was so much extra things to do as well, hay slide, hay pyramid, pig races, wagon ride, and or course the walk through the maze. Here are some pictures from the day.

Sleepover and Goodbye

It was a sad week as we had some longtime friends leaving us. But we made the most and turned our sleepover into a nice good bye party for them, this included a camp fire and roasting marshmallows, goodbye cake, making candy apples, watching movies, and me actually getting about 5 hours of sleep. it was fun though and we will miss A and E greatly!
