With all of the renovations needing to be done here and the in-transition-mode of our life right now, we decided that the girls and I needed to take a little holiday for a week so that Dan could work on some things without interruption. And so last Sunday, we loaded up into the truck and headed to New Brunswick to meet my dear high school friend who welcomed us to spend a week with her and her husband. The following pictures cover our week quite well!
It was a beautiful week of relaxing, playing with the girls, and filling up on good conversation. I told Dan that I had finally gotten my word quota in so I might not need to talk much for a while. It was a week filled with encouragement, rest and so many great moments both with my friend and with my girls.
And then the picture that captured the very best moment of all…
one very very very happy little girl upon seeing her daddy after our week away, she stayed like this for a long time.
Those chubby little hands could not have held her daddy much tighter.
so cute! i love the last photo especially. and i have fond memories of picking wild blueberries in NB, at my grandparents’ cottage. wild blueberries are so delicious.
I think letting your children run barefoot in puddles is fantastic. 🙂 Love the last picture, so sweet. Glad you got a bit of a holiday!
aw…aw! thanks for the east coast glimpses and stories of your life. feels as though i’ve gotten to catch up with you a little!
