Is it August?

Lately, over the past few days, it has been VERY chilly around here. Long sleeves and jeans are more the 'norm' now instead of t-shirts and shorts. What happened to summer? I guess on the brighter side, it's nice to have the windows open and getting some fresh air instead of having the air conditioning running all of the time.

This one is my favourite.

I'm happy to report that our trip to the portrait studio this morning was a success! We got great pictures of Rachel, Natalie and then both of them together. YAHOO! I'm hoping to pick the pictures up tonight.

We had a great weekend. Brenda & Bean's wedding was on Saturday and even though the weather was HORRIBLE - rainy and cold...like torrential rains actually...it was a beautiful ceremony. Her Dad, who just passed away 6 weeks ago, was definitely looking out for her because 10 minutes before her wedding and 10 minutes after her wedding, it was raining like crazy. But during her outdoor ceremony, it didn't rain at all and the sun even managed to come out. The reception was a blast as well. Unfortunately Ron's pager went off at 6:30 (we hadn't eaten yet) so we told him to go in line for the food (there were over 350 at this wedding so it was a buffet style) and grab something to eat before he had to take off. We were in Lucan so he had to drive back to London (40 minute drive), get his work truck and then drive to Brantford (another 45-50 minutes). He removed a tree off a road and a driveway and then he headed back to London to drop his work truck off, grab a shower and change and then he came back to the wedding reception. He didn't get there until midnight - poor guy. He had another bite to eat (the late night snack was out) and then we headed to Clinton (25-30 minutes from Lucan) to spend the night. The girls were staying with Ron's Mom & step Dad but since Natalie was sick all week, we weren't sure if she would sleep through the night or be a pain in the butt so we thought we would play it safe and stay there. Ron did a lot of driving that night so he was beat when we got to his Mom's. I was exhausted because I had been dancing (and drinking ha ha) all night.

As usual, I took a ton of pictures and I'd be here all day if I uploaded them so if you're interested in seeing them, head on over here and here to take a peek.
