hello hello!
i can't believe it's almost time for jamie to come back to toronto! and my last post... wah.
i hope you all enjoyed a fabulous long weekend with your loved ones. mine was busy and fun!
friday: nate and i headed to fonthill to meet up with our friends from high school at the local "star bar". we had a great chat with some great people - one is leaving to teach elementary school in south korea in a couple of weeks, and this was probably our last time seeing him before he left. after the bar closed and we decided we weren't done catching up, we headed back to my parents' house (sorry mom and dad!) we laughed into the early hours of the morning and they left (taking nate shoes with them... whoops.)
saturday: a bit jealous that nate was heading to the beach, i settled in for some more wedding camp work. my sister asked me to record their first dance song (open my eyes by buckcherry), so i did the piano and vocals in my dad's "studio" - happy with how it turned out! i then hung outside with my mom husking corn for our delicious dinner. she came along with me to my friends' wedding rehearsal in a beautiful old catholic church, where i'll be playing their wedding music next weekend!
after we got back home, nate and i met up with some friends of ours for a triple header drive-in (a huge perk of fonthill!) we saw crazy stupid love (love. that. movie.), horrible bosses, and i slept through green lantern (by choice. and every time i woke up and saw/heard what i was missing, i had no regrets and happily fell back asleep). bed at 3:30! not so pretty considering how early we had to wake up sunday.
sunday: delicious breakfast with my parents before heading back to brampton. my sister's fiance, brennan, helped us to gut part of our horrific laundry room, and re-drywall, paint, and prettify. we watched happy gilmore and headed to bed. it sounds short, but was very productive!
monday: we woke up early and spent the day finishing the basement laundry room, installing lights, and listening to some great tunes. sushi party for dinner (yum yum!) and a chill night - its always nice to have some peace and quiet on a long weekend!
it's been my pleasure guest blogging for jamie. i've missed her a lot since she's been traveling, but can't wait to catch up on her journey and see some photos! thank you for reading - maybe i'll be back again some day (please?)
much love,
