Pictionary party

Isabelle and Francois came to play Pictionary with the kids.

Lucas teamed up with Francois. Lucas is lefty but with a regular stance (snowboard) where Benoit is righty with a goofy stance (lefty). Go wonder!

Nice garden with strawberries.

ten years anniversary

On Sunday, we had our party for our 10 years wedding anniversary.
