For a couple of reasons, Troy and the kids arrived at church and had to turn around and go home. When I came home from church, Ethan explained to me that they were at church, but then had to come home. I acknowledged the schedule change and said to him, "ms. Jen sent you a big hug and for you to know that Jesus loves you."
Ethan responded, "I don't love Jesus. I love hockey and basketball."
I never thought I would have a kid who played hockey, but when in Canada, be like the Canadians, eh? Ethan asked if he could learn how to play hockey. Lessons...they start young here.
Tomorrow is Canadian Thanksgiving and because we can't get together with our Canadian Aunties, I'm cooking a Thanksgiving meal. A crock pot turkey breast...yup, I'm making it in the crockpot. Pumpkin soup with pesto recipe from Sunset Magazine (a great food-travel-Pacific northwest, west coast magazine), dressing, Senator Russell Sweet Potatoes, Ransdell traditional "green stuff" (it comes with a recipe, thank goodness). Our neighbour is coming over with cranberries and pumpkin pie. Way too much food for three adults and three kids.
I don't think there will be enough football to balance out the food. That is downside of Canadian thanksgiving...not enough football.
Happy Thanksgiving Canada!
