It's too bad that it rained all day in Renfrew. More than once folks told my cousin that it was good luck to get married in the rain. It didn't dampen anyones spirits though! We had a great time. We didn't make it to the ceremony. We spent some extra time visiting. By the time we did arrive on Friday night Nana and Grampa were already in bed.
Jo was so well behaved! She danced for about 2 hours and when we took her to the hotel it was almost 10 and she kept saying "But, I want to go to the wedding". There were lots of kids to play and dance with and when her head finally hit the pillow (with some help from Krazy K) she stopped crying and slept until 730!
She had to be tired.....  She danced and danced and danced.... We went for breakfast at the hotel on Sunday morning with my sister and her family. I think that's the first time we've done something like that! I actually tried to hold breakfast off as long as I could. I had a surprise for Jo and didn't want her to be disapointed if Baby Maggie didn't make it for a visit. Just as we were finishing up out breakfast I saw Baby Maggie's mom drive by in her car! You should have seen the look on Jo's face when she realized who was with me. I was a great visit, too short, but it was great to see all 3 of them. Maggie's big brother has gotten so big and watching run across the grass, he looks like he is going to be an athlete. You should see that boy run! The drive home was good. The traffic wasn't too bad and for the first time in 13 years of driving with hubby he actually turned the wheel over to me. I almost thought he was kidding. We did have a few stops along the way. Travelling with a toddler who is potty trained is not an easy thing. Thankfully the potty was close at hand. We used it on the way to and from, stopping at the next picnic area to dispose of the waste. I have a pic to poste, but I've been cut off again. Stay tuned..... |
Sorry you missed the ceremony, but it sure looks like Jo had a great time dancing her cute little toes off!
We are sorry we couldn't join you for breakfast on Sunday, it would have been great to see you and to see Jo's face light up with Miss Maggie :).
