Day 691-697
Happy New Year!
The wedding plans are taking over in the Mitchell house. Jackie is starting to fret about a few things, and I told her to apply the KISS rule as much as possible (Keep It Simple Stupid). I have a few concerns, but only time and experience will tell. I hope the weather is nicer, that we don't have the 'flu, etc. etc. I am calling on friends and family to help, because reality is that Glenn may not be able to stay for the whole event, and that means I will need to leave as well. We'll see.
Colin and Chelsey have also picked a day, June 5, 2010. I smiled when they told me, as the waiting to plan is not really an option for either of them. They are very efficient. Their holiday starts on Thursday, so they have gone tanning a few times, and are probably all packed and ready. I hope they have a great experience. Glenn is still trying to get Chelsey to take him along instead of Colin, but really, I don't think it's going to happen!
We really relaxed, and stayed home the last two weeks. I'm running out of groceries, but it has been a much needed break. The kids came out for New Years Eve, and I was encouraged to try out the Wii. I'm not very good, but it is fun. We got Glenn playing one of the games too, and he did surprisingly well. He stayed in bed until 10:00 the next morning, so that is a first! It was good for him to stay up a bit later than usual.
We'll keep you posted as the wedding draws near.
'Til next time,
Louise
