August 2007 - The Friendly French Invasion

We were happy to be descended upon in August by our lovely family from France. Deirdre very much enjoyed playing with her cousins, Mark and Sarah, especially when they played her favorite game "chase the baby". The highlights of the visit were a cookout we had one Saturday, a family dinner out on the deck, and a trip to the Aquarium.


A game of "chase the baby" in progress. Here is Deirdre 18 months with cousin Sarah

Warm outdoor lunches with family on the deck, can't wait for summer again!



A little adult family catch up as the kids play in the yard. You have no idea how hard it was to get back up...glad THAT was not documented!!!

Family dinner party out on the deck. At one point we had 10 people staying under one roof! Pictured here are: Nathan, Jen, Deirdre, cousins Mark and Sarah, Auntie Cecile, Uncle Dan, Grammie Beverly, and Cecile's Parents Jean-Eve and Andre.




Cook out with friends and family on the deck. Pictured here is Nathan the grill master.




Where there are men, there are plans for a fire. Three smug boys enjoying their accomplishment.



Mama looks like she is going to POP here. Backyard conversations with the Appel Family, so glad you guys could join us!



We took the family and a friend (Ben Korenczuk) to the Aquarium, actually it's more like he took us there...Thanks Ben!




Some down time in the family room. It was really really hot in August.
