Hi everyone,
Now that summer has almost came to an end, with kids going back to school and teachers coming back from their paid holidays, it feels like the days have gone by so fast.
I just came back from my recent vacation from Vancouver Island for a family reunion that was happening during the August long weekend. There was fun in the water, more sunshine like I wouldn't imagine, and some entertainment from our talented family members. I always come to think that a family reunion is not only a way to reconnect with relatives, it's a way of being closer and building relationships with one another.
One of the most exciting things about summer is that I became a devoted aunt since my stepsister Alana recently had a baby girl named Laura Katherine, who was born August 13, 2011, weighing 8 lbs, 9 ounces. When I made a trip to the hospital to visit her, there was not a dry eye in the house for me. I also got to hold her for the first time which brought me this ever present joy to my life as a new auntie. I thought that a baby is a worth a blessing and a true gift from God.
I also spend the rest of the summer going to the Pacific National Exhibition in Vancouver with a close friend Erica, marveling at the rides, food, live entertainment, and more fun for people of all ages. (Thank God I didn't go on the Atmosfear, cuz if I did, there wouldn't be any chance of trying to conquer my fear of heights.) Erica and I rewarded ourselves with airbrush cross tattoos on our arms which one says "blessed" on mine in a dark blue and "faith" on hers in a dark pink. The artist working at the parlour took a snapshot of us for her advertisement which was a lucky evening for us to remember.
Fall is about to arrive and I'm ready to get back to recreational activities at my church which is the art group and choir. I'm really excited for both of them to come up this week so that I can continue to explore my horizons.
In the meantime, I will be planning a couple of gigs later in the fall and early winter, so stay tuned and study hard for school! The best is yet to come.
Have a great Labour weekend!!
