Emma the superstar :)

The big move!

Well we have are all moved in to our new house. Of course there are some renovations that will need to take place, but it's all good.
Before we moved in, I tripped in a parking lot hurting my left knee and right ankle. Feeling better now, still a little sore, but it's okay.
Richard did most of the work, poor guy. He had his good friend Tomo who helped him a lot. My dad and brother helped as well. MinKi and Aleks came in the afternoon and helped as much as they could.
Very happy :)

Married

Okay, so it's been already more than a week since our wedding. It almost seems unreal. Well, I guess after more than 4 years, two kids, two cars and a mortgage, the wedding really was just a formality :)
The day was practically perfect in every way.
The day for us girls started with getting our hair day at Aura hairstyles in Kildonan Place. I had a fabulous hairstylist and Emma was a super trouper! She had such a good time getting her hair done with the girls, what a sweetheart.
We then came home to have some lunch, get our make up on and get dressed for the big day.
The ceremony was perfectly as planned. My uncle Addy and cousin Simone did a great job with the singing and music, just beautiful. Both kids behaved perfectly during the ceremony. Xavier came to join us a few times, but he was quiet and a little cutie.
My only chagrins for the day, was a miscommunication for the photos. Richard's uncle and sister went to the hotel instead of the park for the photos, but it was okay, we took photos with my family at the park and with Richard's at the hotel. The other one was with the hotel. The event coordinator gave me an incorrect floor plan for the way the tables were to be arranged, so my seating plan was wrong. My mom's brothers were stuck in a corner instead of right behind her. Oh well.
The food was great and the music couldn't have been perfect! What a night!

Happenings

We went to a baseball game on Tuesday. The kids had a great time, despite the fact that our local team lost 7-5 in the first game (and 8-0 in second as it was a double header). We only stayed for a little bit of the first inning of the second game. It was getting late. The kids enjoyed playing on the seats and switching laps (my sister came and so did some people from Dayspring).
The favourite part for the kids was most likely the food, they ate mini donuts and popcorn provided by my sister. They also got new batting helmet's and soft toy baseballs.
Today I found them covered head to toe in mud when I went to pick them up after work. They looked cute and hilarious. Had to clean them though to get them in the van.
Have a lot of little details to work out right now.
