Ottawa Trip

Natalie decided to take Tatum and I to visit her sister Nadia and family over March Break. It was so much fun! We left on Wednesday morning and came back home on Saturday afternoon. When we got there on Wednesday after a long 6 hour drive, Uncle Ted made us some delicious hamburgers and we just relaxed. Tatum and her cousin Gabrielle got to enjoy some playtime too!

Thursday was a busy day. We visited Parliament Hill, where we went to see the Memorial Chamber.

After visiting Parliament, we went to Gatineau for some shopping before going for lunch at McDonald's...yum! After lunch, we headed to the Museum of Civilization where we spent most of the afternoon.

This was my favourite part of the museum!


Such a cool effect! Looks like we are outside!
