Good morning everyone,
This is the last post in our Summer 2012 blog as our holidays are over. This past week Louise, Jacynthe, Jasmine and I drove down to Tottenham to Susan and Duane's place for a 3 night stay. We brought our tent trailer so that we could have our own place to sleep.
On Thursday we spent the day at Canada's Wonderland with Joel (Louise's brother) and Fabien (Louise's cousin). The park was packed with people and we decided early on to buy the Express Pass. It was well worth it because most people waited well over an hour to get on a ride while with our express pass we waited an average of 10 to 15 minutes.
Jasmine and I spent most of the day riding and got to ride the Leviathan 7 times. We got to sit at the very front for one our rides and it it was plain awesome. In all Jasmine and I rode 26 different times. On Friday we went to Cora's for breakfast with Joel and Fabien and got back to Susan and Duane's later in the afternoon.
On Friday night Louise went and watched Susan's baseball game. I stayed back with the girls and spent some quality time with my brother. All in all this was an awesome summer for us as we got to travel a lot. We are looking to a similar summer next year. We are thinking about bringing the two little ones to the zoo and Jacynthe and Jasmine to do some whitewater rafting. Tomorrow is back to reality for me as I start to work.

Halfway Lake & Mousseau Family Reunion
Good morning everyone,
We are finally back from a one week camping adventure and we had a blast. We left on Monday August 6th to head to Halfway Lake provincial park and joined my brother Rhéal and his family for 4 days of camping. Although we had some thunderstorms and rain on Tuesday we enjoyed our time at the park. Alex, Adrien, Julianne and our dog Lucky joined Louise and I for this trip. Lucky was quite nervous for the ride in the truck on our way to Halfway Lake but was much calmer coming back from Timmins.
Because of the rain we had a lot of time reading. We made a campfire every night and every morning. Adrien spent a lot of time with his two cousins, Ève-Marie and Arianne. They ran from our campsite to theirs many times over our stay. On Thursday we went for a hike in bush and took some nice pictures of the park.
On Friday we packed up and headed for Timmins where we spent 3 night at Shiloh and Yves' place on Kamiskotia lake. We played horseshoes and bean bags on the first night. Then on Saturday we went to the lake and spent some time tubbing and wake boarding. Jacynthe and Alex tried the wake board and really enjoyed the experience. On Sunday night the girls did their annual concert. This year Adrien joined in with his rendition of 'Sexy and I know it'. Julianne also danced along with both her sisters. It was an awesome time for all of us.
We finally got back home last night and we are getting ready for our next adventure starting tomorrow. Wonderland with Jacynthe and Jasmine. Should be fun.

Girls Camping and Wedding
Good morning everyone,
A couple of weeks ago Louise and the girls went camping to Samuel de Champlain provincial park in Mattawa with her cousin. The girls spent 3 nights camping and were able to make a campfire on the last night as the fire restricted zone was lifted. The boys and I along with mom and dad and Louise's mom joined Louise and the girls for supper on Thursday night. We had spaghetti and meatballs.
On Saturday morning Louise and I left for Haliburton to go and celebrate my good friend Lynda's wedding. It was an awesome drive. Adrien spent the night at my parent's place and the girls went to Louise's mom's house. Alex stayed at home and spent most of his time watching Netflix.
We stayed at the Pine Stone Resort and had an awesome time dancing the night away. It was great to see old friends and colleagues. We especially enjoyed the live band, especially the saxophone pieces. This week we are off camping at Halfway lake in Sudbury.
The girls took a bunch of pictures. I will add them later. Have a great week everyone.
