What a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend we had. We decided we were not traveling this year, we have been so busy with the wedding we thought we would have a nice quiet weekend at home! Best decision ever! I spent Saturday night making pies, Sunday I got up and stuffed the turkey before Church. Gramma and Grampa Carrier met us at Church and it was an awesome service as always with amazing music! Then we came home to a late afternoon feast. I get so much satisfaction out of cooking for my family and listening to the silence as they devour their food. After supper Jordie did the dishes (something to be thankful for as I think I used every pot and dish in the house) the kids played with Grandparents and then we had pie. James has been asking to eat pie since the moment he got up! He loves pumpkin pie. Monday we decided to venture out to Rosthern for the day to visit the corn maze. What a great outing for all ages. They have two different corn mazes ...which are quite difficult for the amateur corn maze goer! lol We cheated on the big one and took the "emergency exit" but one of the best parts of the visit. We got to feed the most amazing beautiful horses! Even little Mason couldn't get enough of them. They ate the corn from our hands...their velvety noses tickling our palms. I just loved it. Then there was a bouncey castle as well as a rock wall. James did the rock wall for the first time ever. He struggled the first go around he wanted to hold on to the rope ...but the second time he scooted right to the top! Then there was the petting zoo. This Mummy loved the petting zoo. I wanted to adopt a few animals. I will save that story for another post! All in all a fabulous fun filled weekend with our family! We are blessed!
