Weekend in Saskatoon

What a weekend we had in Saskatoon. Gord and I were in town to throw my Dad a 60th Birthday Bash! We had over some of his close friends to my parents house and I made a little lunch for everyone. It was good to see some of my parent's old friends again. I'm pretty sure Dad enjoyed himself too. My, what lovely food.

We had the party Sunday on Dad's actual birthday, which he shares, even the year, with Sir Elton John by the way.
Saturday I got a chance to hang out with the lovely Heather Wiens for coffee. Then at dinner I met my brother's new girlfriend Tania. The most wonderful of coincidences happened when my friend Rebekah was in from Rosenort for a wedding of some very dear friends. This lead to many wild and crazy times at Sandy's house with San, Jods, Rebs and I all being together again. And for an added dynamic, all of our significant others came along for the ride. They were able to hold down a civilized conversation and ignore us in our craziness.

Here is a view of us enjoying copious amount of laughter. Girls it has been WAY too long.

Definitely a weekend I would live over again given the chance. So awesome to see everybody again. Will come again soon for those of you we missed. (ahem* Dana and Scamms-non emailers/phoners)

Hey dudes
sounds like you had a good time out there. Maybe some night this week you can come over for supper. I got my own blog too, so even if you don't come over, you can digitally.

Ouch. To be mentioned negatively in a blog post. We are horrible people; I know. Really; it's not Dana's fault - completely mine - she was in Winnipeg. I have no other excuse than that I didn't get the phone message till really late Sunday because I was out being distracted by a very tall, nice looking fellow. His fault. So truly. Nothing is my fault, but all the fault of other people and therefore... I am still a good person? Ugh. It's a weak argument, I know... I KNOW!!! But really; I'm sorry I missed you guys, it would've been really awesome to have seen you... will you be out again sometime? Let me know... I really would love to see you!

Hey Janice,
I was so glad that it worked out for you guys to come over. I had a blast and I wish that we could do it more often. I told Steven that it was too bad that you and Gordo live so far away. I guess we'll have to come and visit and then we can spend some time together not to mention that we could do some serious shopping. Hope your week has been good.
Love ya,
s=Sandra

Atleast you posted the good pictures of me. :0) IT was a good weekend. Hopefully we all (with Alison) can get together some time this year.
Trev really enjoyed catching up with Gord too.
