Team LG wins a Petanque match

Friday came fast this week!

Everyone has had a very productive week working on their projects. Derrick, Jim and Emilie enjoy the sunny weather while working in the garden; Marisela and Denise wrap up the week by taking care of the maketing and new projects; and Gayle prepares Elizabeth to take over her role as mum next week.

The evening arrives and Derrick decides to spend his last day cooking, he prepared delicious Bolognese pasta!

Afterwards we headed to Brossac to meet some friends and play Petanque. Once we got there, the group slit up to play a match and Marisela and Paul decided to play the local butchers, who are very –very, very- good at Petanque. The first match was a complete shame and we lost 13-0. In an act of bravery, Paul and Marisela asked for a second round, and surly enough made a most successful –and astonishing- comeback, wining the butchers 12-13!

Whoo-hoo La Giraudiere!
