I went to Canada from the 16 of July to the 3rd of August. Manu arrived on the 22nd. He came purposely the day before the concert so as not to see me all stressed out, practicing our brains out for the concert. Nisha and I put on a show called "Soirée Parisienne". It happened on the 23rd of July. A great turnout, 120 people! We were even interviewed on the French CBC.
My dad and grandma came all the way from Montreal to see the show...and my bump!
Video of the show to come...
It was a nice relaxing time...well, once the concert was over.
Went to Sarah Thompson's baby shower. She's expecting a girl around the 11th of August. It was the first ever baby shower I have been to, and it was FUN! Manu came too...he was the only male, besides our little Simon in my belly.
Mom, Manu and I spent a day at Monk Lake and saw family: Tom and Jeanne, Neil and his fam, Michael and Mack, Marcia and her kids, Veda...and lots of dogs. Had a barbecue and a ride on the lake. The weather wasn't too inviting to swim in the lake...we passed. Next time.
The rest of the time, we slept in the cabin on Mom and Tony's lake, went for swims and ate delicious food. Buttertarts, pie, ice cream, BBQ, salads...
On our way home, we stopped in Toronto and spent the day with Sarah and Rob. We took a walk along the Ontario Lake shoreline and had yummy gelato.
The following morning, at 4 am!!!! We took the cab to the airport. Manu and I flew on different flights. I was on Air Canada...and bumped into Deanna Hendriks, a friend from the Music Faculty!! It was surreal. She was the flight attendant in First Class. We had a chance to chat and catch up. She's married and has a 3 year old daughter!
We are happy to be home, but sad to leave Canada...
lots of changes will be happening in our lives soon..come Sept. 10th. And for the new year, we are leaving Mexico!!! We won't be bored from now till then, that's for sure!
