Well we have made it home for one day and we are going to venture out again tomorrow! We have a had so much fun it has impacted my blogging! ha ha, well we didn't have Internet and then well ok I was much to busy, sleeping, doing fun things, and watching endless CSI! ha ha.
First it was the wedding in Banff! Oh it was so wonderful! The church was great, everyone looked great and the service was great! Very emotional it being the wedding of the first grandson without grandma was really hard on grandpa, but when he saw grandma's ring (the ring that had now become Jenn's wedding band) he had to let some tears fall... well as you can imagine, made us all cry! It had also been only a couple years after Oliver had lost his best friend in a climbing accident so as his little brother stood up as a groomsmen for Ollie, that was so beautiful! Although there was these pieces in the picture it made the wedding that much more intimate and just beautiful.
One thing I learn from this side of my family to always love with everything you have. My aunt does such a good job of this. Her personality it wonderful, her love and compassion never runs out and her generosity is always a blessing to others. What I have learned though her and even my own mom and live is to keep "family" a fluent concept! For it always amazes me when I go up to Calgary I feel like I'm heading to spend time with a bunch a family when really only 5 people are related! It has impacted me in how I look at my church family and my friends. It doesn't matter if they are part of the family, it's if you let them be inside your heart for your family. I am so blessed by all my family! all my grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters that are in my family tree or just part of my heart!
From the wedding we spent a few days in Calgary enjoying the rain....... we went to the mall (of course) , the zoo, we had great food.. and not so great food.. we watched oh I'm pretty sure it was like 5 DVDs of CSI! (it was raining we are resting.. it was great!) We had a great time and now we are home, getting some laundry done, celebrating fathers day with Dave and the fam a couple days early and taking off to Victoria for the weekend to celebrate more friends, father's and then our very first anniversary! It will be so fun, and we will be back Monday, back to work on Tuesday, so I'm sure my blogging will soon return to normal!
