Hump Day

Well, it is Wednesday. It seems like I am neglecting my own blog, but really I am not. I am of course concentrating my efforts on all of my other blog. It gets updated a lot more than this one. I wish there was more of me, but there isn't. So...

I hope my Canadian friends and family had a nice long weekend. I was busy with several shoots, and I had the opportunity to be a third shooter at a lovely wedding in Vancouver. So that was a neat-o-12 hour day working. Very eye opening, and really something I am interested in trying again. Weddings are beautiful. 

Anyways. A couple of images from about 1000 I shot at the wedding. To see more, go check out more, be sure to check out my other blog. It links to the main photographer, Jamie Delaine's blog, and also to the second shooter Laura of Dolcepics. AMAZING work there.

With this ring...

I feel blessed today, because I haven't been able to wear my wedding rings because they slide right off. So, today my Mom-In-Law said come take a look in my jewel box. And low and behold, her original  gold wedding ring fits me like it was made for me. So thank you Mom. You have made my day (and Cliff's day too...saves him money LOL)

So, I am happy to look 'married' and it pretty much matches Cliff's ring. I think that is wonderful, don't you!

Well, it is Thursday morning. After a tooth incident with Claire, and a stomach troubles this week with Cameron. It has been a week let me say.

I am anticipating the wedding of my little sister Amy to her Tyler on Saturday. I was chosen by my sis to be her Matron of Honour. What an honour! I have never been a Matron or Maid of honour before. I have been a Bridesmaid a couple of times. So, I am extremely happy! I cannot wait for their big day on Saturday.

Tonight we have the rehearsal, all of the kids are playing a part in their big day. All of my girls are wearing beautiful white dresses and walking down the isle with their cousin Abby! (will they keep them clean??!) Cameron is helping escort Kayla (daughter of Tyler) down the isle as she carries the rings. We pick the tuxes up etc. tomorrow. We need to pack, we need to get organized. I have a speech to write (I am procrastinating here on Blogger LOL) The girls get their hair all done on Saturday, I will already be at the destination with my sisters.  We have a night in a penthouse suite the night before the wedding, and we are going for manicures and pedicures together and having a big old sleep over together. It will be a great night together I am sure! Then Saturday is the big day! Sunday, we have a brunch with the newlyweds, family and friends. I am more excited than how I felt for my very own wedding. And, well I am not pregnant, and hardly breastfeeding and I am looking forward to cutting it loose and having a great night!! 

My sister and Tyler are the dream couple (can you say the fairytale romance!!), and I am just so happy for them both! TRUE LOVE. They are each others lobster (remember that episode of Friends?!)

Anyways. I have a million and one things to do today, and over the weekend. All good of course! There is just so much good stuff to celebrate this 2009. Last year was such a bad downer for our family, and this year has so much promise! All of the Obama goodness in the states. Everything just seems rosy! LOVE that!

Happy Day to you all! I have a speech to write!

I don't think I will get much posting done, as I am going to shut the computer off for the whole weekend (Eeek!) so I will update next week for sure!

Saturday Summary

Last night was my sister Amy's Stagette! April is on the left (she is the middle sis) Amy of course, in the middle (she is the baby of the family) and then I am on the right (the big sis)

Where have I been?

I had some photos taken of myself last weekend.

Well, I went ice skating with my son Cameron and my Dad aka Papa (school fieldtrip) and we had a good afternoon at the arena together.

And, a birthday shout out to my cousin Andrea who had a birthday a couple of days ago ;D! Happy Birthday!!!

And then last night (see photo above)  I was out celebrating with my sister Amy who gets married in one WEEK today! We went to the Giggle Dam for some drinks and some laughs! A whole lot of laughs actually! It was nice to meet Amy's work friends Natasha and Jolene. And my Mom was there, and of course the three sisters ;D

I know my cheeks are still hurting from last night! I laughed so hard! As did the rest of us! A great place to have some fun together! I highly recommend it ;D

And of course, madly doing last minute things to prepare for my role of Matron of Honour at the wedding! I have a speech to write!! Woo!

It has been busy, but so worth every second!
