Southshore

So nervous for no reason at all. The weeks leading up to our trip, I was frought with anxiety. This is not a natural feeling for me, but with so many unknowns and a different language as well, I didn't know what to expect when I got to Montreal and the home of my soon to be in-laws (it sounds so much nicer in french: belle-mere and belle-pere, I am their belle-fille)

We had a great time with Michelle and Charlie (Jayce's parents) and I got to meet many more aunts and uncles and cousins too. Although Christmas there was not at all what I was used to everybody made me feel welcome trying to speak as much english as possible to keep me feeling included. I'm really going to have to work on my french, I didn't understand nearly as much as I thought I would.

We had a great time shopping in around Montreal. So many shops to see and so little time :D Ohhh, the shoes! It's a good thing we don't live in a city or we'd definitely be broke and we'd need a bigger house to keep all our shoes and Jayce's jeans.
