Kristen and I left at 11:30 in order to be there by 1. It was really windy out! Because it was windy, I wasn't hot, so I never even thought about getting sunburned. Didn't even feel it on the drive home either, but as soon as I got into the house...wham! Felt sunburned...darn it! I had a V-neck shirt on, so it's burned there on my chest and my arms and my nose is like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. LOL Okay, well not that bad, but still...it's burned. Kristen didn't get burned at all. She had a long sleeved shirt & jeans on the whole time and her face is pretty tanned from playing outside, so she didn't get burned. We left at about 5:45 and got home around 7:15! What a long day!

{Family Reunion}
My family reunion went great! Quite a few people showed up at my grandfathers old farm house. He grew up there, so it was built before 1926 I think. There were many people I didn't know, but it was still fun. :) Barry & Kaylee didn't come...Barry doesn't like those sort of things and Kaylee would be running around all the time and I wouldn't be able to sit and talk to people, so it was just Kristen & I that went. Here are some photos I took! (Click on it to see a larger view) I love the one of Kristen and her new Aunt Angela. :)

{I have a little sister!}
My brother Joey & his fiance finally got married on Saturday!
First, as most parents know, going anywhere with your children is chaos. Then add a wedding into the mix along with a bit of sickness, and all you get is fun fun fun I tell ya! LOL We went to Truro on Friday afternoon for the wedding rehearsal and just made it in time. Had to shop for something for Barry to wear and get something to eat first, so we were a bit rushed. Then on Saturday I had some sharp pains in my stomach all morning. I was thinking it was possibly nerves, but why would I be nervous? Because my girls were in the wedding? I dunno…anyway, right at the time I needed to start getting the girls and myself ready, I started feeling like I was going to throw up and I couldn’t stand up or I felt like I was going to faint. After a bit of laying down on the bed, I knew I just had to get up because no one was going to get any of us ready but myself. I was doing pretty well once we got going and up to Angelas parents house where the wedding/reception was. Still feeling a bit icky, but not too bad.
It was a wonderful wedding! I had to walk Kaylee down the aisle though. They couldn’t hold hands and throw the flower petals at the same time, and without Kristen’s hand, Kaylee just wouldn’t go. The ceremony was very quick. No solos or instrumentals. Just got down to the point and got ‘er done.
After the ceremony, my brother & SIL went for ice cream and photos, so the rest of us stayed at the house and chatted while eating some appetizers (aka cheese, fruit & veggies). Kaylee was a handful to take care of…wouldn’t sit still, and I wasn’t feeling well again. As soon as we weren't needed anymore for photos, we left. I hated doing it, but I just couldn’t stay there anymore. Here are some photos I took (except for the ones I am in) Click on it to go to a larger version.
So on the way home I slept. Kaylee had a bad night sleeping in Truro, as she usually does, so I didn’t get much sleep Friday night. I woke up when we were close to home and was feeling cold, even though it was warm out. I ended up with a fever and chills all night, but felt better in the morning. Just had that weird empty/dazed feeling you get when you are getting over a sickness. Took some Tylenol throughout the day and today I am much better! Good thing too as Barry is gone to PEI until Friday!
