As close as we can get

The kids jetted in from their amazing holiday in Florida and we whisked them off to our new fave spot - Bar Raval, a little bit of Barcelona/Madrid in west end Toronto.

Run, jump, fling

Sophie's athletics club hosted a meet this weekend and her dad volunteered at it.

or on the saddle in this case

Family friends

It's always a treat to see friends and when the visit comes together in just a few days, it's an extra bonus. Thus our delight to host Kelly & children this past weekend. This was their 3rd trip to le petit village  and the first when we were actually present!

Adoration

for something that thrives despite you...
