Boo to You!!

Well since I don't have any current pics of my kids' costumes yet (they have to bring their costumes to school for later instead of wearing them all day) I thought I'd share some fun from the past.

A Tour de House part 2

     Last week I showed you the main floor of our new place and today I'm going to show you the upstairs and the basement (I know you all have been secretly waiting to see my spectacular basement lol ;)
    So, we last left off here,

A Tour de House Part 1

Now you can easily find part one and part two of the tour in the tab called "Kabin Tour" above! It also has some fun tours of our previous "Kabins"

So here we go finally :) A tour of our new place, you can find out more information from this previous post. Last time, I left you with this teaser photo of the exterior,

Plum Crazy

Remember a few weeks ago in this post I was telling you about all the plums we had to pick? Well one of the things we ended up making was some homemade HP sauce that my mom had a recipe for. It turned out really yummy so I wanted to share with you the recipe for it. So here goes...

First you need some freshly picked plums (the purple kind)

Happy Thanksgiving my fellow Canadians!

Hope your day is blessed with family, friends and good food.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy 5th Birthday Gabe!

I can't believe our "baby" is 5! Time has flown by so fast and every year it seems to go faster and faster doesn't it? I had such a great time this morning going through a bunch of old photos for this post. I think that is my favorite part of doing birthday posts because it forces me to go back to older pictures and enjoy and remember. 

Dear Gabe,

 You are such a sweet little boy and always have been. We knew we were lucky to have such an easy baby for our third, especially with all the craziness that went on in your first year. You were born  less than one week after we moved to our new place (the old Kozy Kabin) on thanksgiving weekend. Then when you were about 6 months old, mommy decided to open an at-home daycare and you were so good with having new kids around all the time. 

It feels like fall

I canNOT believe it is October already! It's amazing how fast September always flies by isn't it? Or is it just me?

Nyla and Cadence had planted pumpkin seeds in the spring and were so excited to reap the rewards of watering and weeding (well the weeding part kind of got forgotten, thankfully pumpkins are pretty tough even with weeds in their way :) Oh, and Gabe had planted cucumber seeds and got to pick his couple of cucumbers in the summer :)

They were pretty proud as you can see :)
