Hello, Hello, Hello!
Long-time no see! Sorry for the hiatus, but the past few
weeks I’ve been vacationing in some remote parts of the island where Internet
connection was sketchy at best. However, I am now home, safe and sound, and
with Internet connection! Although, I didn’t mind the few weeks of
technological disconnect. I think sometimes we need to do that. I’ll take sand
in my toes and a windy stroll on the beach over Internet connection any day. I
guess I should fill you in on the next leg of my visit home. After leaving my
hometown of New-Wes-Valley, I headed to Lewisporte to attend a cousins wedding.
Our family, all the aunts and uncles, had rented cabins for the weekend. It was
so nice to have everyone together in one area. Something we don’t do often
enough. I loved getting to see all the aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course my
Nan. I’ve missed them all so much these past four years. Even when you do get
to vacation back home you never seem to get enough time to spend with everyone.
The idea of everyone bunking next door to each other was awesome! We had plenty
of time to catch up. Michael and Meagan’s wedding was held on Saturday. I got
to wear my new, red, polka doted, dress (I love it). I found the dress at a
privately owned boutique in B.C, and got it for half price! I LOVE a deal! The
nuptials were lovely. Michael was handsome in his RNC uniform and Meagan was
beautiful. Michael surprised his bride, and everyone else, with a poem he had
written for her. There wasn’t a dry eye in the place. The reception that
followed was great, good food, and some exceptionally funny speeches. We ended
the night with a family fire at Jon and Karla’s cabin. The next day it was time
to pack up and head to the West Coast, to my parents retirement home. Man the
time flew by. The few days we got to spend together was amazing, I love it when
family can come together like that, and over such a happy occasion!
