THE LAST TWO WEEKS IN A NUTSHELL..

...I haven't posted much in the last two weeks...Not too sure what I been doing but I think I have been really busy??!!?!?


As mentioned previously, my mama came to visit for the Easter weekend...We had a very lovely weekend!!! We managed to do a bit of wedding stuff while mama Light was in town as well which was great.

On Saturday, Brad and I and the mama's took a drive out to Westport to look at the Stepping Stone Inn again (now that there is not snow on the ground). This is the place that we are getting married on July 15th of this year...And quite frankly, I think it is going to be wonderfully gorgeous (hehe)!!! Right now, I need everyone to start praying for a beautiful day (weather wise) on that day!!! Also we took a little stroll through the actual town of Westport... Very charming...I think our guests will enjoy it, especially those traveling from out of town. It is located on the Rideau Lakes and is very cottage-country like...

After our tour around Westport we made a quick stop in Perth at the Cloud 9 Bakery...Where Jane is going to make Brad and I's wedding cake...We looked at several books of pictures of cakes she has done in the past and they looked wonderful!!! uummmm Cake!!!

This same day we also managed a meeting with Yvonne (a very good friend of Brad's family) at her flower shop in Carleton Place. She will be doing our flowers for us for the wedding, which I am very thrilled about!!! I think she had some fabulous ideas and whatever we finally decide on flower-wise I just know is going to be outstanding!!!

After this slightly exhausting whirl-wind day...mama Christine hosted yet another one of her tasty dinner parties!!! This included Brad and I, mama Light, George and Yvonne and of course mama and papa McCready!!!

Sunday was also great...As this is the day we had our Easter get together with Brad's family...This was hosted at Brad's Aunt Patti Ann and Uncle Bills house...and of course was just lovely!!! Sooooo much food!!! As usual...It was very busy...With everyone together and especially with the young ones around!!! I posted videos previously of Brad playing with Madison and Colby - - - SO CUTE!!!

Monday, before I took the mama to the airport we did a bit of wedding shopping and window shopping...Funnn funnn....

Last weekend was a bit of a write-off as the weather was awful so it was pretty lazy around our place. Well that being said..We did manage one of our Sunday drives. I learned two things...1) Pontiac is a very pretty area...Might consider moving there oneday...And 2) There is nothing worth seeing in luskville...

The last two weeks...Brad has been up near Toronto (Mondays - Thursdays) for work which sucks cause I totally miss him when he is not here :( But I guess on the brightside...I get him home again on Thursday and he gets to have Friday off which then means we get a bit of an extended weekend together!!! I have been extremely busy with my job the last two weeks as well. I have been teaching one of my colleagues as well as learning new material with in our department. On top of that I have taken on an additional role (billing) within the maintenance fee department as one of our girls is transferring with GLH out to Vancouver!!! So it's been 'good' just really busy

Well I guess without every single little detail that brings us up to spead...

I'm looking forward to this weekend and perhap will have better stories, pictures and/or video for sharing next week!!!
