Happy Birthday!

It’s now official. My youngest child is now 9. Next year is  the big 1-0. ;-)

This is what he got for his birthday:

But this is what I’d like to get him:

…and in walks the biggest Mexican I have ever seen.

Before Banderas got there…

He had to start somewhere.

We’re celebrating AudaciousSon’s Birthday a few days earlier. He turns nine on Monday.

Happy Birthday Adam! See you in a week!

*Edit: Did I mention I have the flu? Apparently a side effect of the flu is that I can’t read because Hilly Tweeted “Happy BossDay” and I read “Happy Birthday”. Of course, I knew Adam’s birthday was on January 26th. Stupid brain. Meh, let’s make this Adam’s honorary birthday okay? ;-)

Birthday

Yesterday was CutieDaughter Birthday. Of course you heard, and many thanks for the birthday wishes. ;-)

So of course today, I’m hungover.

I wish I could party like I was 11 again.

Québec Day 4: So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Let me start with a TUA à la Kapgar: Happy Birthday to my long-lost sister Poppy! I hope you have an awesome year! It’s the year of the Poppy! XXX. ;-) So head over there and wish her a happy birthday. Go, I’ll wait for you to come back.

There. On with the show:

On our last day in Quebec City we visited the Parc Aquarium du Québec. Because of the “du”, I had high expectations. It might not be obvious to my non French readind readers, but the difference between “de” and “du” is really important. You see, “Aquarium de Québec” would mean “Aquarium of the town of Quebec”, but “Aquarium du Québec” means “Aquarium of the whole province of Quebec”. I figured that if they bothered using the “du”, I was going to get quite a show.

PPP

I’d like to say that getting there was half the fun, but really it was more like 97% of the fun. Of course, I’m somewhat exaggerating, but I found that the state of disrepair of the different displays, combined with the cold weather and the crappy cafeteria food (I know, what did I expect, right?) made the whole experience meh.

I took this pictures at one of the fist displays, but it could’ve been any of them, really. Really.

OOO

I kept hitting the blue button, Matrix-style. No dice.

But, I smiled and played through the pain, and the kids had a pretty good time.

Thus concludes our escapade tu Québec City. If you’re so inclined, you can view all the Québec 2009 pictures on my Flickr.

And please, don’t forget to wish Happy Birthday to Poppy. ;-)
