We just got back from a fabulous trip to the eastern part of beautiful Canada, where we spent a week with Amy's family on Kaminiskeg Lake. It was the first time Maurice had the chance to meet our new niece Samantha, so it was extra special, since this was a place Amy's family has been going for more than 20 years. The pictures with the green deck show the view of the lake from the front yard ... spectacular and breathtaking and oh so peaceful. It was rather chilly the week we were there, so we snuggled by the fire playing board games and Wii and even made s'mores with coat hangers ... fun! One day we took a drive through the Algonquin National Park. Though we didn't see a moose, we found some amazing vistas and took a fun trek through a bog. Canada is a beautiful country, full of rocks, trees and water. The seasons are well on their way to changing up there, with a few signs like the leaves turning vibrant colors and falling to the earth. We hope you enjoy the postcards!

We are so excited to have one of our Balboa Park weddings featured on the website and wedding blog of SanDiegoWeddingsofDistinction.com. As you may know, we were recently featured in a member profile on the site.

Angie and Paul's outdoor wedding was held at a favorite San Diego wedding location, The Prado at Balboa Park. Their ceremony was held in the Prado's picturesque outdoor garden terrace, the perfect venue for their summer wedding. The reception was held in the Loggia Room, one of the Prado's more intimate banquet rooms, which features an outdoor patio where guests enjoyed the cocktail hour. Though the couple lives in San Diego, it was a destination wedding for many of their friends and family who traveled to San Diego from as far away as Hawaii.
