We didn't just survive, we had a super fabulous time! Even the long drives went well (with a little help from Raffi). Algonquin Park is always beautiful.
I really love Thanksgiving. We had a little cabin with a fireplace that was really cozy. I was really excited about waking up in the morning and having a fire before it was time to go for breakfast at the main lodge. It was a rainy weekend, so all the wood was wet. Jesse tried his manly best, but all we got to enjoy was a 10 minute cardboard box and kindling fire. I loved every minute of it though!
We snuggled and slept late in the mornings, then headed over to Nana and Cha-cha's cabin to wake them up.
Jem was introduced to a few of his family members and friends for the first time. One of them is due with her first in November, so we loaned Jem out as 'demo baby' for burping and diaper changes. We tried to lend Violet out as 'demo toddler', so people could try and get her sit for meals, poop in the toilet and get her down for a nap...but no takers.
Jem was such a super baby that strangers came up to me and told me so. Violet was also showered with attention and presents. A book full of Winnie the Pooh stickers kept her busy for hours. The boots were a gift for Jem in Violet's current size. How smart is that!?
I didn't take a lot of pictures; either it was raining or I was carrying Jem.Here are a few:
Violet teaching Jem how to text "I love boobs" on my phone. 
Jem is currently in his molting-pizza-face phase. But still so handsome!

Hope you all had a great weekend too. I don't think I've ever had more to be thankful about.
