Canadian Thanksgiving








Happy Thanksgiving from Canada! We had the perfect fall weather for our last couple of days at the cottage this year and along with the boys we had Anneli and Pip's mate Jordan to help us attack the traditional turkey. The colours around the lake were gorgeous and Pip even braved the lake for a dip. We toasted all of you around the world of course...

Quick update!

My boy on his crutches and a cast after fracturing a bone playing soccer!! although he isn't able to be as active as normal he has put all of his efforts into annoying his mother:-) another first today, he got a love letter from a girl that is smitten with him at school!!! (I need to fix that I think!) Maddie just had her teacher conference with us and had glowing reviews much to her delight and she is now running cross country and playing soccer much to the shagrin of her immobile brother!! She also just bridged to brownies from daisies with he group which I somehow am co-leader of!! So all good here, manic with the house stuff but that will hopefully be over before the holidays and then we can relax and get a somewhat normal life back again!



Here is the not quite up to date but the latest that I have at present pics at the renovation blog site http://www.scholtenhouse.blogspot.com/

Hope all is well whichever corner of the world you are, miss you all keep thinking we should use this blog more and then the time just slips by!! love to one and all, be well and happy :-) H x
