Beaconsfield, Quebec it is!

Happy Happy Sunday to all!  It is overcast today but otherwise it is not a bad day weather wise.  The snow is all gone but the trees are not budding yet.  I think we need rain and more warm weather.  I did notice though that our daylillies are growing nicely.  We also heard last night, for the first time this season, the chirping of the Spring peepers.  What a lovely sound.  Soon, the hummingbirds will make their way to Huntsville.  Russell has been following their path online and they should arrive North any day now.  Tomorrow, we will put the feeders up and watch for them.

So, this past week marked our trip to La Belle Province in the pursuit of the perfect home.  And we found it, in Beaconsfield.  We arrived in Montreal on Tuesday and we had 8 houses lined up starting Wednesday morning.  We fell in love with the first house that we saw.  Although we did see a few others, our mind was made up and we made an offer at noon.  It was accepted just a few hours later, with no issues whatsoever.  What a concept, having the ability to make an offer knowing that there are no competing offers in the works.

The home we found is a complete turnkey.  It was redone from top to bottom in 2015. Nothing to do except two things:  we need to put up a fence to keep the Coop safe and we will add shutters to the windows. Other than that, the house is ready to move in.  We will take possession on May 16, a little sooner than we had planned but no big deal.  We will most likely move to Quebec the third week of June.

We came back home yesterday, feeling extremely relieved and happy.  Lots to do between now and the move.  I started making a list this morning and realized that I needed a bigger piece of paper.....but we'll get there.

Today, we are relaxing.  Tomorrow, we start tackling our "to-do list".  Russell has a nice fire going right now, Coop is playing with his chew and I'm day dreaming about where everything will go in our new home.

I leave you with just a few photos, a couple taken by Darlah while Coop was playing his heart out at Talemaker Camp, and a photo of our new home.  I wish you all a great week!

Our new home in La Belle Province...at long last
the search is over!!
