plaid

nancy and i drove down to mississauga for megan's bridal shower today. we yaked, yaked, yaked on the way there :) the shower was at meg's aunt's place, it's was a totally beautiful house, and the food was great. it was really super getting the chance to get to know meg's family a little bit. it was pretty complicated, she seemed to have an abundance of aunts and it was difficult which ones were sisters, which ones were married into the family, and which side of her family (mom or dad) they were from. we also got to meet her sister-in-law, christine, who is also in the wedding party. she recently had a baby so everyone was very excited to talk with her so we just briefly interacted. besides the fact that nancy and i represented ben's side of the family, i'm also really happy that when i see these people again in 4 week's time they'll be familiar and such. i like making memories :)

on the way home nancy and i listened to the fiddler on the roof soundtrack and we sang and sang.

it was a long drive, but it went by quickly. it rained a lot, but nancy did very well driving. she brought along their GPS which would bellow instructions at us. the electronic woman frightened me a little bit, but i couldn't find the volume so i would try covering the speaker with my hand to muffle the sound. too funny.

it was a good day. i'm very fortunate to have such a great mother-in-law and sister-in-law :)
