A blog about nothing in particular

I'm not really blogging for a reason...it's just been a while! Things are chuggin' along here, not much to report!

Last Sunday, Ben and I went to a wedding shower for Auntie-to-be Sheri. She got some beautiful gifts - everyone was very generous! I was in charge of "the fun", so I made everyone participate in some cheesy games! I thought it was great, and I don't care what anyone else thinks! It has re-awoken the part of me that wants to be a party-planner...is a change in career inevitable? Nah - I'm a boring accountant - we're static and unchanging and rule-oriented!

Tonight, Ben and I are leaving for good ol' Killarney. The Tweeds are having a HUGE bash - there's a wedding ceremony for their daughter, who got married in New Zealand earlier this year and now are getting hitched here, Merv's 50th birthday, Merv & Bev's 25th anniversary and Merv's dad's 80th birthday. And we may as well throw in Charles' birthday too, for shits & giggles! And as it happens, the Beach Festival is on this weekend too. Craziness, I tell ya! My whole family is going, except Gord, who is staying home with the dog again - lucky guy. We're going to Salmon Arm on Tuesday, so we didn't want to ask Gord's mom to come for the weekend and then start again two days later. Only we should be subjected to Charlie that much. ;)

Gord and Ben are having a blast spending all this time together. Apparently, Ben gives Daddy about a hundred kisses a day. Mommy gets one at bedtime, IF she's lucky! And I am very envious of their days' activities - the zoo (to see the lion babies!), the wading pool, the mall, etc. I like those places...

I can't wait for Tuesday to get here...

Signing off!
