Happy 7th Anniversary

Today Rob and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. I can't believe it has been this long. Watching BJ and Kelly get married this weekend has had me thinking of my own wedding and how much in love I was with Rob at that time. Well, I didn't think I could love him any more than I did on the day we got married. Boy, was I ever wrong. We have had 7 amazing years together, and I am more in love now that I have ever been.

Lots to blog

Lots to blog, not enough time. The wedding was absoutely beautiful. I took 18 rolls of pictures. I will be scanning and posting over the next couple of days.

Wedding eve!

Tomorrow is the big day. Everyone from out of town is here, and i'm soo excited to see them. Colby spent the morning with my Uncle Clar, and he is already spoiled. He is quite taken with him. I met up with my Aunt Rene, her boys Georgie and Gregory, Aunt Rosemary and Uncle Mike. I haven't seen Aunt Rosemary since I left Newfoundland 7 years ago, but she'll always look the same to me. I haven't seen my Uncle Mike in, well, I can't remember. I was living in Newfoundland at the time, so it would have to be 7 years if not more. Everyone is meeting here (mom's) tonight for a bbq and to have a few drinks with BJ before tomorrow. There's a 14 year old bottle of scotch that's getting opened tonight also, but shhhh it's a secret!

Ebay addicted

Yes, I am addicted to Ebay. I admit it. I hang my head in shame. But not low enough that I can't see the screen! I have now bought 2 items, and find myself still looking there. I bought 6 prs of pewter greyhound earrings for just under 10.00 with shipping, and 25 pewter greyhound pendants for just under 30.00 with shipping. I will of course keep a set for myself and then donate the rest of them to GPAC to raise money. I can't wait to get them!

Walkin' down memory lane

I sent an email to a friend of mine from school in hopes of getting a response, and much to my surprise I received one an hour later! Shannon Wade, now Shannon MacDonald and I have been chatting through email for the past couple of days. She has been married for the past 7 years and has a beautiful daughter named Zoe. She sent me a picture of her and it was like looking at Shannon at that age. The resemblance is remarkable! I hoping to get together with her so the kids can play!

Happy 7th Anniversary to my 2 favorite people. I couldn't scan their wedding picture as my scanner is not big enough, but this one would have been taken about a month or so before their wedding. I have an entire album of pictures of just the four of us, but this is one of my favorites. Happy Anniversary guys!

A fellow Greyhound owner found these bracelets on the internet and ordered them. I will be buying this bracelet as soon as they are here. The price is 6.00 plus shipping (unknown as of yet) and all the proceeds will be going to Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada. They are the same style as the "Livestrong" bracelets, but I think that this is a fabulous idea. If anyone is interested in supporting this worthwhile cause, let me know and I can get you one!

Another new movie!

Colby has picked yet another movie to watch repeatedly. He calls it the "airplane movie", we call it Pearl Harbour. He has 2 favorite pieces. The first is when Ben Affeck hits himself in the face with the wine bottle cork, and the second is when the japanese are dropping the bombs. Mom and Dad are building a new piece on their deck. They're framing in where the dog pen used to be. It's going to look amazing when it's done. We're taking Koda on his first greyhound walk today. We're going to Rainbow Haven beach. There should be at least 5 greys there including Koda, maybe more! Of course I'll have my camera!

Well frig!

I just had a huge post typed out and internet explorer closed on me and I lost everything. GRRRR! Here's the news in point form because I'm not typing it all out again:

  • I have acquired another husband, bringing my grand total to 3. Rob, of course, Adam, and now Dave at work.
  • Koda has a growth on the side of his head that we initially thought was a flybite, but after a week of medication and a cone on his head, it's not getting better.
  • Wedding plans are going great, rehearsal is on July 27th.
  • Spoke with Genevieve last night and am getting excited about going to Cape Breton for Adelle's christening, Colby is spending the weekend with Mom and Dave (hubby#3) and his fiancee will be house / dog sitting for us.
  • Getting excited for vacation, and celebrating 7 years of marriage.

I think that's it. Grrr it was a great post too!

This is a bookmark that will be on every table at the wedding. Picture taken by yours truly, of course!

This is by far my most favorite picture I have ever taken of Rebecca. We were just sitting in the grass, laughing and talking and I couldn't help but snap this picture.
