We celebrated Thanksgiving a few weeks ago with a nice, big dinner at our place. Liz joined us for a full spread of turkey, potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, crescent rolls, cranberry sauce and apple crisp for dessert - it was delicious! We also took a drive through the countryside and explored the small town of Otterville, a historic town connected with the Underground Railroad and home to an incredible park, an old mill and more. We brought a picnic lunch and the kids had fun throwing rocks into the waterfall and collecting creature friends (that we did not bring home). Since then Hendrik participated in a cross-country meet that I just missed, the leaves have all really turned (it’s beautiful!), and pool season is over. With Halloween just around the corner, we have fun things to think about - Alana is going to be Mary Poppins, Jordan wants to be a ghostbuster or Lloyd from Lego Ninjago and Hendrik is going as Waldo (as in Where’s Waldo?). I’m sure there’s more to write about but I’ll get this posted while I have the ball rolling. Happy fall everyone!
