Storeyland Updates

Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to drop a line to say, HI and that I haven't forgotten about those of you who follow my blog on a regular basis. I tried to post a few that I had written and had problems with the web :(

In the last post I was sharing pics of the beautiful fall colors and now it's snowing. Today was the first official snowfall for our little neck of the woods. It's so beautiful but it wont last. Already the flakes are disintegrating as they hit the pavement. The kids were so excited that they've been playing outside all afternoon. I do believe Hot Chocolate and Cookies will be on the menu for snacks when they barrel in from making snow angels with cheeks all aglow.

In October, the children had a wonderful time picking out costumes for Halloween. They were very creative with their choices. We also had a scare in October when the house next door caught on fire and we had to evacuate our home.

In November, Reuben and Rachael were a part of the Remembrance Day ceremonies. They had joined the Navy League Cadets and were a part of the parade. What an honor for them.

Here we are...almost half way through November, the children got their report cards yesterday and we are so proud of their efforts. It's nice to see all those A's and B's. The twins are loving Preschool and have adjusted well to the change in their routine. We are in the process of finishing up some minor renovations before Christmas. It's hard to believe it is just around the corner. This year is almost over....where did the time go? Hope you all have a fantastic time getting ready for the holiday's...the snowfall today has put me in the mood for Christmas :) Mmmm....I wonder where I put my Christmas CD's...it will probably be valentines day before I find them all LOL

Here are a few pics of some adventures in Storeyland:

Gorgeous Colors all Around!

Fall Colors ~Taken today by Jo

What a gorgeous fall day! I am thankful for every day the weather is crisp yet warm enough to be comfortable without a jacket. As I drove down our road this morning, the leaves were so pretty that I had to really concentrate to keep my eyes on the traffic. The beauty of the early morning sun reflecting on the colorful leaves overwhelmed me that I had to pull over and take a few pictures. I love my province this time of year. It is very picturesque. Everywhere you look you see the gorgeous masterpieces God creates with his eternal paintbrush. All I can say is WOW! To top it all off, He also painted a gorgeous sunset for us to enjoy. What inspiration for an empty canvass to a budding artist :)

Here are a few pics of what I see every morning on the way to preschool with the Twins:
