Thanksgiving weekend the Greeks came to visit us - and they brought their Segways! All of us except Janelle took a turn or two toodling around the neighbourhood. Calvin loved it the most - he and Shawn went all over town, through the cemetary(!), to the corner store for slurpies. Here's Calvin getting ready to take off. I'm not sure why I have that look on my face with my hands on my hips! Probably giving one of those motherly "be careful" lectures!
This is our mountain ash tree in the backyard. Andy thought it was so beautiful he took a picture of it. This was only a couple of weeks ago, and now it's completely bare. Fall is gorgeous here but way too short!
A couple of weeks ago Janelle went with the youth group on a "photo rally" at West Edmonton Mall (WEM for all us locals). They had to follow a series of clues to find certain stores and then take a picture of the storefront to prove they found the right one. This is Janelle with her friend and partner for the game, Marissa. They obviously were taking photos of more than just the stores they were supposed to! She had a really fun time with Marissa, who was one of the first girls she met the first Sunday we were at church. They're the same age, in the same grade, and live about a block from each other on the same street!

The Segways look fun! I bet you got a tonne of looks riding that around Beaumont!

Yes, the tree is beautiful and colorful and the segways do look like fun.It's probably a matter of perfect balancing to stay on one.I don't think I myself would want to try it,but it would be fun watching the younger ones on it.
The snow? Well I do believe we got more then in Red Deer. In fact the local paper had a picture of someone leaving in the morning for work and the tracks they left behind. Yes, that's what you have to get used to in Alberta!
