Summertime without the children

In August, Peter, Nathan and Laura went off to camp for two weeks. And Stéphane and Mélanie signed up to work at Nathan and Laura's camp. So Philip and Wesley and I had to find something to do to keep us busy.Wesley stayed a few days with his cousins and did a variety of fun things.

Including fishing!

And Philip and I relaxed a bit near Epinal.

Then we went home to a garden that was producing way more than three people could eat!

We decided to take advantage of the empty house, and relative lack of laundry to remodel the laundry room. It is taking way more time than we hoped, but is starting to look like we want it to!

Philip's brother Jeannot redid all the electricity.

His dad helped with tearing out tiles and putting up plaster board.

And we finally got to painting after the children were home.

It is starting to look better but still needs plumbing before I can do laundry. (Luckily we have another hookup or I would be at the laudromat alot!)
