Visits with the Kids


Before leaving for Mexico Marie and I dropped of Phil, Fernanda and Amy at the airport as they had an earlier flight than us then headed out to Ontario to spend a day with Christina and Patrick. They put on a wonderful pot roast for us and we spent a snowy day exchanging gifts. We gave each of them a pair of snowshoes to enjoy in their back yard and along the many trails around their place.

 The next day we drove over to Nun's Island in Montreal to wish Lara, Jesse and Joshua a happy Christmas. The flu bug unfortunately was making its rounds and had paid an unwelcome visit to Lara. Hopefully it wouldn't stay long and she would be back on her feet when we returned. They were very glad though to be out of their old and cold damp place on Prud'homme and in their new warm condo with spa, hot tub and swimming pool. Joshua is growing fast and will be a year old in February. We wish we could see him more often but are content to know he is well and loved. gws
