Some Sense of Normal??

 Oh this is getting tiresome. We never know where COVID is taking us. Wear a mask, go to a house, go for coffee, don't go for coffee, kids are masked in school, sports are ok, but not the same, no spectators, parents doing car drop offs, car dressing, etc., etc.

This is the month of Halloween and that seems to be a discussion focus with COVID.

But before we get there we need to get through Thanksgiving. Cohorts and limited visitation is still the topic, and this year I am cooking a giant turkey, but the Camerons are doing meal pick up. Their kids, although COVID negative, have been feeling down with colds etc., and precautions are important.

We also have family pictures booked and there is no way we want to miss those!

And Thanksgiving weekend is also Tracy and Cal's anniversary - this year is their 16th.

And - it's Don's birthday month.

So forget all the COVID crap, and let's live the month out in photos.

The month started with such amazing weather - we picked Blake up for a day of fishing before we winterized the boat. It was a beautiful day, like hot!! There were no keeper fish but we sure had a good ride.

Thanksgiving day came and we had such a nice day for our family photos. And as I said the Camerons did a meal pick up on their way home. 

And so far the kids are on the ice! This is Reese...

And Blake in his game day suit:) We are so proud of him for making the U15AAA (Bantam) team his first year. He spent so much time preparing for the try outs, and he has several games upcoming.

Here's Mason - you better keep a watch on this dynamo!

And Em all ready for her first skate...

And Connor - who likes being a goalie and will always do it for his team, which is so appreciated. 

Then later in the month we celebrated Don's birthday with the whole family at Lindsay and Jeremy's!

And now you finally get Halloween photos.

And that my friends is October in a nutshell - or a nuthouse.
