We Love Quebec!

This week we drove up north to see the Frenchies.  Here's a picture of everyone at a look-out point on Mont Royal (Montreal, get it?).

We celebrated my 10th birthday at our fancy hotel in Montreal,
and then hit the road to the mountains.
 














We stayed at a ski condo on Mont Tremblant. The next day we went on a nature walk. Camille had been begging for a souviner so Gwyneth picked up a slug on a rock and gave it to Camille as a souviner. Camille named her slug Larry.






































After our hike we went paddle boating.
























The next day we went to the ski village nearby our condo. For lunch we had delicous crepes.  After lunch we went to free face painting.
























































After we signed out of our condo the next morning we went back to the ski village. Me and Gwyneth went bungee jumping and Camille went rock climbing ( Celeste just watched).









We drove to Quebec City and saw a night time outdoor performance of Cirque de Soleil.



Fighting Pirates in Old Quebec

One of the only times
when Celeste was smiling!!  We had to take a picture of this because she wasn't screaming.

On top of the Citadel before we went on a forced march, Jeff-style tour (it actually wasn't bad at all, but the kids weren't energetic at first.


In front of the "Crazy Pig" restaurant, where Celeste was relatively well-behaved because they had a pot of dill pickles on the table.

Happy Birthday, Elise. Your gift is sitting in my bedroom waiting for me to take it to the post office. I'm so sorry. I will try my hardest to send it out there soon. I'm glad you got such a special vacation with your sweet family for your birthday.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE you with bangs. It is a great way to frame that beautiful face of yours. We love and miss you!
