I made a short trip home last week. I don't want this to be a travel-log because those can be boring. So, instead, here's some pictures: (which I admit can also be boring, but I added my own witty comments for your entertainment!)
Oh how I miss the beautiful fields!
We attended my brother's football game (He's #50). Is there anything better than a football game on a warm autumn night?
One of the local greenhouses had a pumpkin festival. This was the largest pumpkin I have ever seen! How in the world does someone grow something this big?
With my 8 month old nephew on the big pumpkin. We took a million pictures and he wasn't looking up in any of them. He has a mind of his own, that's for sure!
Pretty, pretty pumpkins
Goose on the lake with autumn leaves behind him (or her).
A maple dipped doughnut from Tim Horton's. These are definitely the reason I gained 700 pounds in 5 days. I guess 3 or 4 doughnuts a day will do that to a girl!
My nephew, Kaleb. How cute is he? (By the way, in case you were wondering, he really enjoys cookies!)
My other nephew, enjoying his hot dog.
We like to start them young on the whole hockey thing up in the Great White North.
This kids cracks me up! I kept trying to figure out how to bring him back with me. Unfortunately his parents actually love him and wouldn't let me take him. Maybe next time...
One of the emergency vehicles waiting for our plane on the runway after our emergency landing 15 minutes after take off! There was a problem with the landing gear not retracting. Apparently that's not a good thing. I guess it is standard procedure for emergency vehicles to meet planes during emergency landings. I did not know that. They say you learn something new everyday. I would have liked it if this new piece of information came to me in a different way!

I like your Canada goose picture. Very Canadian. Also, you forgot to mention how much nicer an autumn football game is when you paste your opponent, which is apparently what we did. It was great to see you! Thanks for coming by and spending some of your time with me! Tell Ryan that Travis is thinking of what "wonderful husband" trick to perform next!
