Guess I Gotta Ramble for the Sake of Blogging

So much has been going on and will go on with the family that I have been remiss in my duties. My apologies.

Some of the highlights:
  • Michelle and my brother David welcomed their son Mason on 4/20/10
  • My cousin Liz welcomed their second son Carter 5/9/10
  • I've just spent the weekend at a major choral event in BC. It culminated in a major concert on Mother's Day. Then drove some Nanaimo people to the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal.
  • On Monday Night (4/17/10) Rich and I take a red-eye to NYC where in Brooklyn, we board the Caribbean Princess heading on a 9-day Eastern Caribbean cruise. Upon our return, we're staying 3 days in the city. On the Friday night, we're excited to attend the Broadway Musical "Wicked" about the Wicked Which of the West from Oz.
  • During all this, Lil'A will be hanging with her grand-parents. At Gramma's during the week and Gran & Grandpa's for the weekends. I'm thinking she will not want to go home. All that spoilage that will happen. :)
  • Our niece MaKayla and nephew Sebastien (can't seem to do the accent on the first "e" on this computer) are coming to Vancouver for the summer.
  • We meet the kids and their family in Kimberley where we will stay and visit for a few days. (That's assuming, I get my latest idea for the summer is confirmed with Kimberley. (Oh yeah, need to call the family up there and find out if this will work - Guess I missed that task - One of the many these days).
  • Next, we're heading up to Green Lake near 100-Mile House to go camping at Emerald Bay provincial park. (We get a great deal b/c Mom has disabled status.
  • Next to Cultus Lake for a few days to hang with the other side of my family.
  • The Webster reunion is at Camp Arbuckle again this year at the end of July.
  • August completely CLEAR. WAHOO!
  • At the end of September, the Hunt family is meeting up at Disney World to celebrate Sebastien's birthday. (Gramma wants to start a tradition for every kid's 8th birthday).
So much to look forward too as well as countdown to. PHEW. Oh yeah, all that prep for each. Guess those tasks come before all others. (I'm finding cutting down bamboo while lil'A plays outside is very cathartic. Keeping kidlet happy is my #1 priority above all that. Making her happy makes me happy.
