this weekend for thanksgiving i found myelf

out of ottawa and a ferry-ride into quebec

at chateau montebello.

it was my grandmother's 80th birthday

and so all 24 of us (on my mom's side) gathered

to celebrate!

even though i wasn't able to bring any leftovers

back to guelph... it was a great weekend!

(complete with family-wide basketball game.

competition runs high within the hooper clan)

photographic proof of the weekend!
