This weekend we had a little farewell barbeque at our house--hosting the many friends and coworkers we have gotten to know so well and have become very close with over the years that we've been here. It makes me infinitely sad to leave such beautiful souls behind.... And I am already working out plans in my head for return visits in the future. So none of you are allowed to move ok!?!!?? Unless it's to Ontario!
It was pretty great having so many close friends all in one place and having our barefooted kids run around, plopping themselves down in several available laps to sneak slices of watermelon and other delicious tidbits. And we were lucky that the rain and clouds cleared up enough that we could enjoy being outside in the yard where the little ones could push trucks and fly down the slide.
Our "chefs" for the evening!! xo
Thank
you to my chefs extraordinare (Amy, Harrison and Stephen) who slaved over the BBQ, to the many
people who brought dishes of food and to Marion, who cooked, served,
cleaned, watched Gabriel and took most of these fabulous photos--capturing our evening.
How blessed we feel to have had such supportive family and friends in our lives. Leaving here is bittersweet--parting with our friends for life together in Toronto. Oh, how we will miss this place! But we look forward to your visits to our home in Toronto and to the many pictures exchanged, emails, texts, phone calls and skype dates we plan on having. Our littles are going to grow up so fast and I don't want to miss that!
