a few days in montreal..

we were off to quebec last weekend...to attend a very important birthday party. when family is spread out across two big provinces, the time spent together is rare and all the more precious.

lots of fun by the pool, good food and good drink...there was music and dancing...laughing and a few sentimental tears.

our last afternoon we made a short trip into old montreal. i probably could have spent a week there. i bought a little piece of art...a perfect keepsake. yummy beavertails were devoured....good time had by all.

very, very good times.

firefly festival...

it was a beautiful evening for a street festival...and lots of folks had the same thought..

you must be patient if browsing through the shops was on your list of to-do's...every store was busy busy...

i love this town. it's late and i'm too tired to talk.

goodnight xo

3 lovely nights, 4 fun teenage girls and 2 happy mamas

swimming, tubing, boat rides....turtle....

nails, bracelets, movies, books, games...music...

yummy meals, cold drinks, chips, pretzels, chocolate....watermelon...

now we all need a nap. thanks for the new memories girls...i heart you...

sunshine, water, friends and family kind of weekend

Our Canada Day long weekend was a success!! So nice when the weather cooperates...

How lucky are we to live in a place where everywhere you look there's water?

Summer means lots of trips to the little dock down the road...girlies swim and lay in the sun while Mommy sets up a reading spot under the umbrellie. We've got it all planned. Summer here we come!
