We had a fabulous day today! The weather was perfect; 22 degrees, no wind, cloudless sky. Amazing. We spent the morning in Regina shopping, which was fun. We were able to find some clothes for the girls, and part of Chloe's Halloween costume. And we also picked up some new carpet for Chloe's bedroom, as well as hardware for our Kitchen cabinets, which we're currently in the process of re-doing.
We spent this afternoon at Pumpkin Hollow, just outside of Regina. It was such an amazing, relaxing time! First we had a picnic lunch outside, and then the girls explored amongst the pumpkins. Afterwards, we hitched a tractor ride to the corn maze. We had such a fun time in the maze, and we actually made it out of the exit of this one!
The girls also got to ride on the cow train several times, play in a corn box, ride cow swings, pet sheep, and jump off hay bales. Who could ask for more? Then we had slush puppies, ice cream and popcorn balls. It was a wonderful afternoon!
Tonight we're baking. Glynn is making cinnamon buns to take for breakfast at church tomorrow, and I am making a four-layer pumpkin cake for house church in the afternoon. Tomorrow we're going to be having Thanksgiving dinner at our house church. Then on Monday, we're having friends over for Thanksgiving dinner. The menu is Cajun turkey and pumpkin cheesecake, which has become kind of a tradition at our house for Thanksgiving. And we're supposed to have beautiful weather all weekend!!
