smiley's in quebec

a couple weeks ago the girls and i travelled to quebec with my family.

we stayed in a rustic old house with so much charm, 

on a property with tons of land and things to explore.

there was also a gorgeous old barn that you can see here.

our time together was fun and relaxing.

with 5 cousins ranging from 1 to 10, there was always lots to do!

rediscovered my love for puzzles during this week

a photo of me - these are hard to come by (thanks christine)

great memories were made during this week and i'm so thankful for my family.

fun to hang out with and very helpful with the girls 

(jude wasn't able to attend as he started his new job that week).

i wonder what we'll plan for next summer...
