Tuesday....Around the World

Mt Tremblant Fall 11 003
I was so ready to get away for a few days. I've been burning the candle at both ends since August and all I could think about was doing......absolutely nothing.

But it's almost impossible to do "nothing" at home. Especially when there is always work to do - just staring you in the face.

So, on Friday, around noon, we hit the road for up north.
To do.....absolutely nothing.

And that was made so much easier because the whole area (Mt Tremblant) was practically deserted. It's only like this for a few weeks in November and a few in May and that's when we love to get there.

On Friday - we didn't even go out. Spent about 2 hours in the hot tub and had pizza and watched movies. Oh...and we were all asleep by 9 PM.
Bliss!!

But this is what we woke up to on Saturday morning. First snowfall is so pretty.

The snow didn't stay but it was cold enough for warm coats and a little stroll through the village.

On Sunday it was time to leave. The little sign announces the name of the river. "Devil's River". And it was kind of creepy looking into the mist.

Had to stop for our favorite Crepes on the way home. And a cuddle with my girlies.

Beautiful photos of a lovely city - and two girls too cute for words! First snow huh? Feels like we´re never going to get snow, it´s really late this year and my boys are impatient..!

That's absolutely divine --i.e., to go somewhere as lovely as Mt. Tremblant and just be, with no agenda. :)

Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!) We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home. This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!
God. My (growing) family. Hangin' out with my girlies. My wonderful friends (you know who you are!). To laugh (out loud and a lot!). Music. Painting. Hugs. Long chats with my buds. My garden. To read (ha...when I can!). Sunshine. Spring, Spring and more Spring. Building things. Cooking. Decorating. Parties (ahem). The internet. Life. Movies. A.I. Dancing with the stars. So you think you can dance. Travel. Umm..did I say laughing my head off. Oh Gee...everything actually!!
