This week-end we celebrated Thanksgiving in Canada. And what better way to get in the mood than driving down a country road and visiting a nearby farm.
A pumpkin farm.....
.....with my own li'l punkins.
The leaves are really starting to change color and the weather is all over the place but this long week-end was perfect....almost too warm for October, but we'll take it.
'Cause we know what's coming!
But for now, we're thankful for all the bounty, the rich colours and never-ending variety of fruits and vegetables and flowers.
The challenge of the day was picking just the right pumpkins for our family. Had to have one big daddy one, one plump lovely mama one, one big sis and one little sis.
No....the worty one did make the cut.
Much to be thankful for!
Thanks for popping by for a peek in my little corner of the world!

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!)
We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home.
This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
