Avery's Spooky Birthday Bash
First of all Cameron had a Halloween Birthday Party to go to. He got all decked out as Rob Zombie.
I'd be scared....he looks creepy.
Avery decided to celebrate her birthday a week early this year and have a Spooky Birthday Bash.
It was A LOT of work and a TON of fun!!!!!!!
The Cake.
Preparing the pumpkin.
The result. (Avery's idea. No shocker there.)
The table.
Avery the Avatar. She made an absolutely beautiful Neytiri.
Waiting for our Spooky guest to arrive.
An Avatar+ the Bride of Dracula+ a Witch and a couple of blood sucking vampires= a Monster Mashing good time!!!!
The feast.
The presents.
Avery had a fantastic time. She was so happy (and hyper) we couldn't get her into bed till almost 11pm!
Mission Spooky Birthday Bash.........A COMPLETE SUCCESS!

First hockey game of the season for Cam.
We were pretty pumped heading to the arena tonight. 
First game of the season.

First year body contact.
Check out the little video clip I took of him. I've watched it a dozen times already and can't help but laugh. He is so determine to get a goal....then bam he's sprawled out on the ice. Check it out. Cam is #4 this year.

A Beautiful Thanksgiving Weekend.
Hope everyone had a good one.
Mine was full of sunshine, cottage life and happy kids!
Sunday night we had our Thanksgiving dinner and as tradition goes we each have to tell what we are thankful for before the feast.
Cameron: Thankful for his Dad who works so hard so we can have the cottage and all the great things we have.
Avery: Thankful for Dracula (her hamster) and her iPod.
Isaac: Fa fies and pissa!

What a weekend!
It started with the kids in a skate-a-thon on Saturday. Avery only lasted an hour but Cameron skated for six and a half hours!!! Seriously. He was amazing! Even after his friends were dropping out one by one he kept going. Together they raised $120 for a new addition that will be built on to our local community centre. Way to go guys!
Sunday was spent doing yard work. Mike is hoping its the last time we will have to cut grass for the year but I'm hoping we will still be cutting it into December.
Anyway, this little guy was discovered digging a hole in the lawn to get comfy for the winter. Avery apparently had different plans for him.
But after mulling the frog for a while she decided to let it have some peace and placed him in the garden rocks where he will be much safer waiting out the winter.
Isaac went to bed for a nap but decided it wasn't comfortable enough so instead bunked out on the kitchen floor for an hour. At least he had company.
So we agreed to babysit a friends gecko for a week. Avery was so excited that she was up yesterday morning at 6:45 ready to go cricket shopping (that's what geckos eat. Fresh. Live. Crickets)

Poke (our new guests name) arrived last night at 6 and hasn't had a moments peace since.
I'm hoping the novelty wears off soon. The poor little thing has spent more time being man-handled by my overly excited children then in her tank.
But I have to admit she is pretty cute.
