Hi guys! Well first of all I came down with a little infection... ya the bladder... not nice. I have never had that before and it took a couple different kinds of antibiotics before I started getting better. It kind of knocked the wind out of my sails for almost a week.
Then in the middle of that I had to get ready for a very special visitor.... Bubba - yes that would be our first born.. knicknamed Bubba by his sister when she was too young to say his name correctly.. This is his first visit to the Comox Valley. We didn't get to see him at Christmas for the first time ever because he had to work and now that we are a "Ferry Trip Away" it's not so easy to go over to Mom and Dad's for a quick visit.
I drove down to the ferry on Thursday to pick him up and on Saturday Tim drove down to pickup TJ and his friend Chelsey. They will be here all week and on Friday Kate and Chris are coming. . Am I a lucky mom or what. All my kids under my roof and in our new home...
Chelsey and I went to church this morning while TJ and Tim started work on the Pergola.
Christopher my son - look at all the fun you missed... hahaha. They worked 9 hours today and managed to get the 4 main posts in the ground and cemented.. As well as the crossbars for the posts closest to the house.
There is Chels being the great supervisor on the job.. lol
After church I invited my friend Laurel over for lunch - now for those who know and have been reading the blog from the beginning.. She is my long lost friend that I bumped into not long after I got here. Her husband worked with Tim and was the best man at our wedding. We hadn't seen each other for something like 20 years. To make a long story short to bring those of you up-to-date that don't know the story - I went into labour with Brad 2 months premature when I was having a sleepover at Laurel's house (our husbands were working out of town). Brad was almost born at her house.. And to top it off - Laurel is Brad's Godmother.
The best part is that Brad didn't even remember this story and did not know her. So this afternoon was very very special. Godmother meets Godson... too cool. They had a great visit and found they have a lot of similar interests.
It was a really great day... Church was awesome - the afternoon lunch and visit was awesome and the guys accomplished so much outside. It was also a very sunny day in the valley...
I will get back to you with that history trip but might not be till after the kids leave.. Will keep posting pictures on the pergola during the week and the visit with the kids.
