Postcards from Montreal: the west of Montreal edition

Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving weekend! So nice to have an extra day off! Andreas and I decided to go to a place called Coteau-du-Lac, which is about a 30 minute drive from us. Oliver even decided to join us (we bribed him with fishing and poutine but don't tell anyone😉). The leaves have just started to turn colours and the weather, although grey, was still pretty warm. It made for a beautiful outing!

Hope you are all doing well! Here is a photo spam to make up for the fact that I am crap at keeping up on this blog... but I think of you all... and this little corner of the internet... often.

Wishing you all a great week ahead!

 

16 years with Oliver

Today is our baby's 16th birthday. I know I shouldn't be calling him a baby, but he will always be ours. Time flies when we are having fun! We love you, Oli!

Postcards from Montreal: the hopefully spring edition

Greetings from Blogland! 

This morning I decided to take a walk around Montreal's Little Italy. Yes, I needed a good coffee and, yes, I was feeling inspired to take some pictures.  Andreas is traveling for work so I was able to click away without annoying him 😉

So here are some pics from my day's walk ❤️

We made it!

It has been an incredibly long winter. First snow came unexpectedly at the very start of November and the last flurries hit Montreal last Tuesday. There was no break from the white stuff in between! Spring did not greet us with flowers and green grass but rather with grey slush and very cold mornings.

While it is still far from "coffee outside" weather, we seem to be on the right track and the smile is coming back to my face ;) We finally made it!

Hope you are all having a great weekend so far! xox

Hope on the horizon!
