Happy Homemaker 2024-10-14

Good morning!  Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends

What a busy week and weekend.  DH went with ds and ddil to look at a used car that they will be buying.  He also got our Rav-4 oiled before winter.  I took Friday afternoon off to finalize a few things before family arrived for lunch Saturday.

DD, boyfriend + 2 children, my parents, my sister and bil, my brother and girlfriend, and ds, ddil and 2 grandkids spent weekend here (but ds and ddil did not sleep here as they live 5 minutes away and the house was full).  Only one brother didn't make it.

We went to local white geese festival to walk around and see the small marketplace.  There were some inflatable games for the grandkids, old vintage cars, ... it was a nice weekend. the colors were beautiful.  SIL had brought supper for Saturday (lasagnas and chocolate cake) and sis had brought the onion soup for lunch Sunday.  I took care of the rest.  My family left Sunday after lunch but dd and family stayed and left after supper at the same time as ds' family.  

Today I am tired and as you can guess have lots of housechores to do... with 4 grandkids and sil's dog.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom .
