Yet again we had a very fun-filled but busy weekend! (With many more to come also!!!)
Friday was Reon's softball game which turned out to be "almost" a shut out for his team. They won and did a great job playing! Laila and Lane came out to the late game in support and watched as Reon made the best hit in his softball playing career. He did a great job. Jay, our friend and Reon's team mate, made an amazing playing... running from third base to home, trying to beat the speed of the ball flying to home base, he dove and rolled like a tumble weed. Unfortunately he both was tagged out and he hurt his shoulder REALLY badly. He was out of commission for the rest of the game and probably for the rest of the season, if not more! The really neat part is that Lane filled in for him during the last inning and made some nice plays himself, avoiding a ball that popped right up and almost knocked him out TOO!
After the game, Reon helped Jay get his stuff to the car, made a makeshift sling out of his windbreaker, started Jay's car and sent him off to his Brother-in-law so that he could look at his shoulder at 1 a.m. !!! We haven't heard if he is okay, so we are really hoping that it was just a sprain and nothing actually tore! Poor Jay, We're thinking of you! Get well soon!
Saturday, we travelled to Canada for a wedding near Point Pelee. Beautiful Day for a wedding! It was a nice little outdoor ceremony with birds chirping and the wind blowing just enough.
In between the ceremony and the reception we had to kill some time so we drove around by the Lake and then stopped off at Shoppers Drug Mart for some water (I was parched!) Once in the store, I spotted the "Dairy" section and I started salivating for MILK. Fact: I'm addicted to skim milk! So, I gave in to my craving and bought a liter of milk and drank it all up! It was a great little treat.
We got to the reception and caught up with some friends of ours and some of Reon's old co-workers from Centerline. We enjoyed this fabulous lemon chicken and the rest of the reception with dancing, laughing and fun!
Congratulations Shawn and Charlene! <3
Sunday was more busy for Reon than myself (except for the massive grocery shopping that I embarked on!) Reon got to fulfill probably the biggest fantasy of his life. He went to South Haven (almost 3 hours away) and went racing with Classic Design Concepts' race cars. He woke up at 4:30 a.m. and got there at 7:30ish to sit in on the racer's meeting to learn all of the rules and regulations. Now, he can cross off a big To-Do off of his list of things that he wants to accomplish in his life! I am so glad he had that experience. I hope he doesn't want a race car now though!
I am going to finish the last little bit of the Pieces of Me box. Can't wait until it is done so then I can scrap my furbaby, Snowball's mini album! I already have some GREAT pictures to include.
For now, ta ta!
