Lovable Lily


Here is  Lily the chocolate lab who is obsessed with her Kong toy, and the family pool. When we pitched the kong in the water she jumped in and actually swam down to the bottom to retrieve it. Then she swam around with it in her mouth and brought it back to us to do it again and again. She was so happy it was hysterical. She is too cute! I love them labs!

Back in the Saddle

We are back from Prince Edward Island after an extended stay. Our brakes died on our last day and so we got 3 extra days on the island. Excellent! Brackley Beach on a beautiful sunny day is a great place to wait for a tow truck. Can't complain about that. 

I found myself exercising our dear friend's racehorse in the mornings which was an absolute dream for me! I also played the fiddle on the Montague 8-enders Curling Club float in a parade in Murray River. You can imagine my surprise when I heard my name screamed from the sidelines by our friends Dougal and Annie from Ontario. Hilarious! So of course we had them out to the farm for an afternoon of fun. 

This year we had a total of 31 Oggs which was lots of fun, but made all logistics quite hellish. I have SO MANY photos I cannot possibly post them on my blog. So I am back, and things are crazy busy!


Famille extraordinaire



On their way home from PEI to France, our niece and her lovely family stayed with us and got to visit Montreal. Of course, I couldn't let such a beautiful family leave without photographing them! Merci Jess !
