Greetings from the North Country
It is kind of hard to beat Tom's blog entry. Sounds like quite a Thanksgiving at the Goulding ranch. Wow, paintball and all!
We had a great time here in the north country, but it was a little more sedate. Amy, Jason and Cameron came from a visit.. we always enjoy spending time with them. Cameron changes everytime you see him. He can communicate with one word sentences.. but YOU know what he wants. He actually put two words together, when Jason went out to walk the dog.. "bye bye Dadda". Makes you chuckle when you hear it, but it also makes you smile thinking of what this little one can do in such a short time. Every little change is a milestone.. you will see - its truly a blessing to have grandchildren (right Mom and Dad).
I had a little mishap prior to the holiday. I took my eyes off Ariel (our female dog) for no less than 5 seconds - at the same time a fox scooted in front of her.. she decided to take off while I was still holding the leash. Needless to say, by the time I realized she was off and running I was on my way down.. broke two ribs and screw up my hip and hamstring. Lesson learned..
Note to myself - "dogs and fox don't mix - never take an eye off them". I'm on the mend.. but it will be a few weeks.. I plan to be better by snowshoeing season.. :)
Enjoy these pictures of Cameron.. unfortunately, we never all sat long enough to get family pictures.. which we had planned to do.. (silly us).
It is wonderful that we can share stories through the internet on our family time together. I am thankful for such a wonderful family. I am also thankful for continued good health for Mom and that her visit to the hospital turned out as successful as it did... I'm sad that we were not able to share Thanksgiving with Mom and Dad - but we'll try again in 2010.
We are all waiting for the arrival of Matt and Kensey's baby girl soon and the soon to follow birth of Bethany and Robb's little one.. Imagine 2010 with all the new little babies.. something to look forward to indeed.
Happy Thursday to you all! Have a wonderful day and enjoy the small things that make you smile.. they are the greatest gift of all!
Love Kathy

Let the Games begin
It was great to have the family here for Thanksgiving. Some of us played paintball before the meal. This was far more fun than arguing politics or religion over dinner. I ate so much, I kind of feel like I might be pregnant also, but my stomach isn't kicking and poking me like Bethany's. A couple more months and we're grandparents. God willing we'll be following Mike and MaryAnn and Kathy and Mel in that ritual event. There is a lot to look forward to.
I hope y'all are well and survive the holidays with your sanity intact.
