Another Saturday

Yesterday, we picked up Kaylee at Fort Vermilion. She had to wait for us for a couple of hours, at the school. We took the kids and went to BP in High Level.
After a little shopping, we came home..
After sitting up late with me, Patsy is sleeping in.
Brennan and I are watching Ice Age.
Roxanne went home a little while ago.
Kay's sleeping downstairs (of course).
Brianna camped at Tallie's.
So far, today's been all about chores.

Carson Called

He's taking Sanjel training at Calgary. It was a nice, long phone visit

Went To Visit Ava

The "two grandmas" visited Ava at North Tallcree, when Kaylee returned from the weekend. Ava met her Great Grandpa Johns as well (though, she didn't actually wake up).

Thanksgiving with the Folks

Turkey and Ham feast. The house was enjoyably full :)

Ava Comes to Visit

Sheena and Ava came to visit. They picked up Kaylee, so she can return to school tomorrow. Grandma succeeded in burping Ava twice.

Cultural Camp at Sulphur Lake

We camped in a walled, canvass tent, with a wood stove in it. It was a wonderful family time! Brennan wished there were more boys. I kept the fire reasonably well. Preparing the night before, I could get the morning fire going within five minutes, and the wood was fairly damp.
Dried meat with marrow. What a surprising treat! Richer than lard and tastier than butter.
