Apple Cake Baking

Both of my children are extremely interested in cooking, so I've been keeping an eye out for kid friendly recipes. When I saw this recipe for one bowl apple cake, I knew we had to try it out!






This was the perfect fall baking activity for my excited little cooks. Super easy, and absolutely delicious!

Ornithophobia

This girl is seriously afraid of birds. Even fake ones.

Hiking

A couple of weeks ago we took a trip a couple of hours outside of the city to do some hiking with Jon's family. I love Autumn, and it was really nice to spend the day outside enjoying the beautiful weather and changing leaves.

Elijah's favourite part of the whole experience was getting to see a dam and a lock system at work. He was so inspired that he actually composed an original song about dams, beavers, locks, boats and water. It is aptly named "The Dam Song".


I realized after we got home that most of the pictures I took that day are of Elijah. That's mostly because Isabel suckered these two into swinging her around and giving her rides pretty much all day long:

Christmas Wishes

I think Santa might have a bit of trouble with the twins' Christmas wish list this year. Elijah wants "a bigger house so I have more space to play my trains" and Isabel wants "to go bungee jumping". My kids are so strange!
