Following our trip to Montreal, the next leg of our trip consisted of heading back to Ottawa to pick up Taylor and DJ, and then off to the family reunion at Fairlane Lake.First we made an overnight stop, to make a much needed visit with friends; Jen and Paul and their kids; Morgan and Connor. These are great
friends that we have not had a chance to see in a long time, so we took the chance to stop in for a night and introduce them to little Addy. We had a quick, but great visit, and did some much needed catching up. Morgan was a natural babysitter and took her hand at watching Addy. Jen's parents; Myrna and Peter even made a trip out to see us, which was wonderful it had been way too long. Next time lets not make it three years in between visits!!

Thursday the 30th we picked up Taylor and DJ and again were on our way. For all the travelling we were doing, Addy was doing just wonderful. She fussed very little and entertained us as we made our pitstops along the way. She tried to convince her dad that she was old enough to drive, but he didnt fall for it so she only got to have the wheel for a short time. We hit the cottages on Fairlane Lake just short of the sun going down and got our camp set up for the next 5 days. We were tenting it and Addy was going to have 
her first experience of "camping". We settled in and had a great trip. The weather cooperated and we got some great sunny days in for skiing, kneeboarding, seadooing and just plain having fun. Addy did well camping, even through the cool nights. She thought it was pretty cool to wake up in the morning and have nature right at her doorstep. Camping will definitley be in our future with this little one. Unfortunately our camera decided to break down on us in the middle of the trip, so 
we missed out on some pics. Addy had some great firsts besides tenting, she had her first taste of cereal, starting pulling herself up as she was sitting, and swimming in the lake!!! Oh she is growing up so fast!Our last leg of our vacation took us back east to Greg's dads in Madoc to drop off the kids and have a visit with Granny and 
Grandpa. We had some more great sunny weather, which made for some great walks through the grapes and a couple good games of Hillbilly Golf. It was great to see Grandpa have time to give Addy some much needed Grandpa cuddles. It was a great vacation that unfortunately had to come to an end, and after a 5 hour drive we arrived back home to two very lonely dogs that needed some big hugs. What a great three weeks it was, and we got to see so many family and friends. Addison did so well and really showed us what a great little traveller she was and so adaptable to so many differnent environments. Thanks to everyone for hosting us and making it a great first vacation away for Addy!!!
