Colin got a book from the library that references a “Hello, Goodbye window”. He thought this was a great idea, so as Gramdmother and Grampy were leaving he had to say goodbye from his window. 

Our satsuma oranges are ready to enjoy!  

Laura and Grandmother made a delicious pumpkin chocolate chip bundt cake for Thanksgiving supper. 

An  original work by Laura

A (blurry) moment of joy 

Charlie was excited to see a picture of herself and her new friend on my phone. 

I finally got to Central Newfoundland after a detour to St John’s and 14 extra travel hours. Not too bad for a delay and I got to work in a quick visit with friends over breakfast. 

My flight was on a small plane. Smaller than economy seats, and you had to turn sideways to get down the aisle while stepping over the wheel well in the middle of the floor.  The co-pilot was also the flight attendant.  

The

 views over the Avalon peninsula and the approach to Gander were wonderful.  
   
   

Sarah put together a fantastic party for Laura based on one of Laura’s favorite TV show.  

The treasure hunt came first where he kids had to work together to find the treasure of aprons made by Sarah and measuring spoons and cups. 

Then there was a challenge where the kids worked as teams making cookies with their own flavors and additions. 

   
    
 
Followed by a technical challenge of Lego building. 

  
Cake, and then a cupcake decorating competition. 

   
   
All cookies were edible. And all kids had a fantastic time. 

Laura has a bit of catch-up homework to finish over the Thanksgiving Break.  Colin was happy to do some Busytown activity books alongside her. 

Another family birthday, another fabulous cake by Sarah. 

This year she did a multi layered piñata cake filled with lovely candies.
