Wow, six months has gone by in the blink of an eye, Happy New Year!! Since my last post, our son has been married, our grandson has turned 6 months old and they were here for Christmas, and our youngest is more than half way through her second year at university and caking up a storm....whew!! Our son's wedding was celebrated in the Gatineau region of Quebec, intimate and beautiful, just like the two of them. Christmas was wonderful, everyone was home and Matt and Emily finally met their nephew. I have to say that it became very clear to my husband and I how blessed we really are, watching them all together over the holidays. Our grandson is a delightful, engaging little soul, easy to smile, vocalizing up a storm and charming everyone he comes in contact with. Our daughter and son-in-law are wonderful parents as evidenced by the calm demeanor of this little marvel. Emily has been caking every special occasion she can get her hands on, including her brother's shower and wedding cakes and a delightful "hungry caterpillar" cake for baby Aodhan's half birthday!! one of her favorite books. The cake was competely vegan (Aodhan is 100% vegan baby), and was delicious. We enjoyed 2 weeks together and then sadly had to say goodbye. Everyone keep your fingers crossed, they are planning to move back to Canada in 6 months time. We are hunkered down for the winter, planning a family winter vacation in Quebec during the month of February and possibly a trip along the west coast of Canada/USA via the pacific coast highway....if anyone has any advice with regard to a trip along the PCH please feel free to share.
Ciao for now
Bean
