For our final day with Peco we visited Vieux (Old) Québec, a beautiful historic part of the city that we have visited many times during our time here. Normally you can find all kinds of canons and can climb onto the old wall but we realized when we got there that the city doesn’t […]

A week of fun with Peco just wouldn’t be complete with out something like jumping off the roof or out of a tree into our huge piles of snow. We had a lot of fun sledding and jumping, and then after warming up inside we went to a Remparts hockey game at the Colisée Pepsi. […]
Reading week is flying by but yesterday we had the fun of visiting an Ice Hotel near Quebec City with our friends Peco and Markus. It was a beautiful structure (at least on the outside) with beautiful and intricate carvings inside. There were different rooms with different themes and it looked like there […]
Our good friends Stephen and Lizzy welcomed their little boy Jesse into the world this past Wednesday! Stephen said today that the labour and delivery went well and that mother and baby are healthy. Stephen and Lizzy have been such a huge encouragement to us as we have gotten to know them. […]

We had a great time together playing Risk, watching movies, building igloos, playing childhood computer games (THANKS KANE!) and much more. We also had a chance to visit the world famous Québec Winter Carnival. We had fun searching for bonhomme, […]
When something grows slowly before your eyes, it’s easy to miss the change that has been taking place. That’s how we have been with our increasingly huge levels of snow in Québec City. Yesterday my brothers Ken and Colin along with friend Brenden showed up and were astounded at the view out our back porch. […]
It’s getting close to Canaan’s second birthday (wow!) and we decided it was time to get him his very own potty. He’s quite familiar with ours, every time he sees it he says ‘yuck!’ all though that doesn’t seem to stop him from occasionally trying to put something down it. He often wants to flush […]
