Happy Thanksgiving

I absolutely love the way holidays bring families together. How many times during the year will you have 6 people from one family, brought together from 3 different cities, cooking in one kitchen to make a dinner that they will eventually all sit down and eat together? These are the things Thanksgiving is good for.

Yes, holidays are wonderful for bringing people together. But you know what else is? BABIES.

Babies can draw their families in around them faster than the smell of turkey can draw people to the kitchen table. And when distance creates a boundary, there's always Skype to blur geographical lines.

Jacey, meet Aunt Jenna. Jenna, meet niece Jacey.

As you can see, we had a wonderful weekend in Lethbridge.

Here's a riddle. What do you get when you put 3 chiropractors and an RMT in one house for 3 days? Since a picture is worth 1000 words, here are 6000 words worth of pictures.

There were many fun adventures this past weekend, including a trip to Coulee Labradoodles. If there was anything cute enough to give babies a run for their money, it would be puppies. And I must say, these puppies are among the cutest I've seen.

Our Kali even got to reunite with one of her puppies, Lily. Lily was a tad larger then she was when she and Kali last were together!

Kali obliged in playful games for a good long while, but eventually pulled herself out of the game and watched from the bench like the old 2 year old she is.

I know her name is Lily, but I am absolutely convinced that Kali's puppy is Livewire at heart. What a handful!

Mmm...puppies.

Lastly, if any of you have never done a corn maze - I highly recommend it. Especially in the dark. I'm really hoping it becomes part of a Thanksgiving tradition!

We hope everyone's Thanksgiving was as wonderful as ours. Enjoy the leftovers!

- Mama, out.
