Thanksgiving visit part 2: walkies

Thanksgiving, and our kids arrived!

Our Vancouver family came for a visit here in Ontario! It's a long flight, 6 hours, plus boarding and deplaning!  We haven't seen them in a long time. They were here 3 years ago, which was fun. Jesse had a brief visit in Oct., 2017.

We had a sleep-in Friday. Then there was a lot of play time before and after breakfast. 

Cluny wanted to do a dragon puzzle.


Art work:

Outdoor play and walkies:


Jesse and Bryony!


I'll have to dry and clean the water fountain, to shut it down for winter! Cluny having a go!


Cluny did a tree climb. 




It was such a lovely day!

 

I created a meatloaf. Once it was in the oven, Jesse and Joe went into town for supplies, including drinks, yogurt and our turkey. I usually divide that batch in half, which cooks faster. I didn't do that. It took 90 minutes! I cooked up some carrots, cauliflower, broccoli for us, as well as having a veggie tray with dip, for those who preferred raw veggies.

  1. This is so fun and festive. I love all the activities for the kids with the puzzle table and the art. And also that you have the raw veg and dip on the table. Both are OK but raw I like better and that's a great idea!
