Hello and welcome!

I live in Montreal, Quebec, and my first language is French.

May I insist on the fact that I love getting comments?

Back, married and flu-free!

Hey! Finally home! We've had a lovely trip to Mexico, which was everything we expected it to be, albeit just a little short. But we missed our son terribly and so for the first time I didn't feel so bad about leaving, because home and real life had never seemed sweeter.

So I had promised MY HUSBAND (I love saying that) that I wouldn't check on the blog or my email for the entire week, and I've missed you all a lot! Can't wait to see what's been going on.

But first.

The wedding was incredible. It really didn't go as I expected, since the weather was so bad (just a couple of degrees above the freezing point and SO windy), but all the better. We didn't spend one minute in the tent, but rather moved inside in the orchard's tasting room. After going back and forth with the idea we finally held the ceremony outside besides the blooming apple trees just like I had always dreamed. Yeah, so it was freezing, but I didn't care. Everyone was dressed warmly and we kept it short. The whole day was a bit of a blur, and over very quickly, but it was so fun! In all its quirkiness and imperfectness, everything was perfect and 100% us.

I just saw the first few pictures and they look amazing! Completely in tune with what I remember from it: very vibrant colors, sheer joy and infinite love. I just wanted to share a couple with you now, but I promise, they'll be more.





(You can have a glimpse at my bouquet here, -which I've made myself-, including small branches from my own lilac tree!)

I will of course post about all of it again, but right now I'm so wiped, the house is in a crazy state of chaos, and LP really wants his mommy. I will try to return to my daily posting routine as soon as I can, but please be patient this week, as I don't have any scheduled post prepared (yeah that's usually pretty much my secret) and it might take me a couple of days to get back to normal.

In the meantime:


We're FRIGGIN' MARRIED guys! How cool is that?! Hurray!!!!!!!!
