Loving Fall....

24 Hours in Montreal!
Welcome to Canada!
Dave & I have been planning a 4 day mini-vacation to Montreal since the end of September.  We were supposed to go this past weekend and instead of staying for 4 days we spent 1 night. The weather changed from the time we checked Wednesday night to when we got there on Thursday. Instead of rain for Thursday and part of Friday it was going to rain all the way through Saturday! I also woke up on Friday not feeling great so we decided to come home instead of spending a lot of money to sit in a hotel.  Montreal is probably a really great city but we weren't able to enjoy it in 40 degree rainy weather. We will try again another time--good thing we were able to drive and decide when we wanted to leave.  The hotel we stayed in was very cool and super nice--they let us cancel our other 2 nights there with no problems. So if you are ever looking for a hotel look for a W Hotel to stay at! Super nice, super friendly and fancy!
Welcome home!

Dylan the Pirate!
We spent Halloween in Hoboken with the MacDonald's.  Hoboken sure knows how to make families happy and welcomed! They closed down half of Washington Street so that the kids could parade in their costumes! The stores along Washington Street also had candy for the kids who were Trick 'O' Treating! It makes me excited to be moving to a new town that has a "downtown main street" so we can enjoy similar events like Halloween in the future.
