Granny & Grandpa . . .

Grandpa & Charlotte-Amélie in her new room Grandpa painted- it was totally beige before - even the window & trim!

Granny & Grandpa Part II . . .

We had a great Thanksgiving Dinner... Montana Ted did a great job cooking! Mum & I had the turkey dinner & Dan & Dad had bison pot roast ;o)

Thanskgiving Parade

We took Granny & Grandpa to see the Naperville Thanksgiving Parade... culminating in Santa's visit and the turning-on-of-the-lights. Fun was had by all!

Thanksgiving

Grampa's Handywork

Grampa & Granny are here from Northern Ireland this week, and thankfully Grampa doesn't mind painting... so we set him to work on Charlotte-Amélie's room. She still needs some new furniture... but in the meantime, I am glad to see it starting to take shape!

The Kitchen

Hammie's Favourite Room.

Fun in the yard... more leaves.

Charlotte-Amélie & the mites enjoy playing in their new backyard. Dan meanwhile enjoys his new leaf-blower. The previous owner very kindly left him some manly things.... which he was very excited about, such as a garden hose, ladder, the blower and a rake & some other treasures. We got a new fence up this week, as I was tired climbing under bushes to find Hammie in the neighbour's garden. I think he has a thing for their German Shepherd. Yay for Classic Fence company! We have all the tribe enclosed now, which means no more bush hopping for me.

Ophelia Belia tries her hand at being a pumpkin for October 31st.
Charlotte-Amélie is quite amused!
