Well, the prediction for snow was accurate, now I hope their prediction for +17 weather for the weekend is correct as well. I beleive the leaves are frozen to the trees, becasue they haven't all fallen off yet. We have about an inch of snow on the ground and it is cold! Minus temperatures everyday and Thanksgiving was one of the coldest on record.
I pray everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. We travelled to Calagary for the weekend and we were supposed to have dinner at Lindsay and Nolan's, however they are no longer together so plans then moved to Jacki and Gary's. Jonmarie went up with Uncle Matt and Grandma on Saturday and Shaunie, John and myself went up Sunday afternoon. John first had to stop at Mountain Equipment Co-op for kids' skipants. They make the best skipants ever. Jonmarie gets them first, then Shaunie, Bobby, Amy and I am sure Anthony. That is how durable they are. Easy to look after and very warm.
Jacki made an amazing meal, with the big highlight of homemade lemon meringue pie and 3 layered jellied salad. John and I are planning to go to South Africa in December with the kids (yikes!!) and he insists I take the recipe for Christmas meal! It is his favorite.
Matt has been a bit down and not feeling 100%. The pain in his back is gone but the pain from his acne keeps him awake at nights and during the day he can't sit in his chair properly. We still haven't heard from the dermatologist but hopefully soon. Matt was planning to take a few classes starting in January at the Red Deer College, however until his back clears up that will be put on hold.
Matt's appt for the rehab specialist in Glenrose has been moved up to October 22nd, which we hope the weather improves.

Hi Matthew & Family.
It is so beautiful here today. I just went out and pulled out all my flowers and cleaned up the yard. Had to take my jacket off as it was so warm.
The guys just left the yard about half an hour ago to try combine the oats. It is still standing so Orest will swath in front of the combines. Sure hope all goes well. We still have six quarters to do. Canola and flax besides the one quarter of oats. It is supposed to rain tonight so that doesn't help any. Hopefully everyone else can get back into the fields.
Are you still going to Weekes in November? I plan to come for a couple days if you guys are there. I miss that sister of mine (and you too Matt).
Shelley, John's mom must be thrilled to have you guys come to South Africa for Christmas. It has been awhile since you have been there. Good luck with everything and safe travels.
Take care and prayers for you always Matthew and the rest too.
Love Auntie Sandy & Uncle Orest
