1 Year Wedding Anniversary

This past weekend marked Louisa and my one year wedding anniversary. And it was a pretty darn good weekend if I do say so myself. To kick things off we attended the wedding of friends of ours on Saturday. Same weekend (1 year later), same church, same time, even same priest. It was a bit surreal. It seems like it was just yesterday that we were the ones standing at the alter.

Next on our agenda was an overnight get away to Prince Edward County. When we went to drop Bee Bee off at the dog sitter there was no sign of her. After some quick thinking and thanks to the kindness of Barry and Annette we dropped Bee Bee off at Barry and Annette's house and we were on our way.

Since we didn't have any real time line we decided to stop off at Merrickville for Breakfast. Once we made it to Picton we spent some time walking through the shops on the main drag before checking in to our sleeping quarters.

Louisa had booked us a room at the Huff Estates Winery. We had a little trouble locating it though. We had printed off maps and directions but they were lost in the wind at a service station. We turned to the GPS and for once it failed us. It sent us on a wild goose chase and we became lost. Eventually we found our way and made it to the estate.

Before heading back to Ottawa we went for a nice romantic walk on the beach at Sandbanks Provincial Park. We also found a great bakery where we bought some fresh made bread and donuts and a pie.

It was a great trip. Very relaxing. It will also be the last trip that we will be able to go on before the baby comes. Next time we go somewhere we will have so much stuff to bring. This trip we only brought one carry on size suitcase between the two of us.

Michael Buble

Last night Louisa and I went to a Michael Buble concert. The tickets were one of the Christmas presents I gave her. People who know me well will not be surprised that I also enjoy his music. Although there were far more females in attendance I quite enjoyed the concert. Not all good singers make good entertainers, but Michael Buble sure is. He was funny and humble about his success. The best part of the concert though I must say was to see Louisa smile and enjoy herself. I had a great time and that is what I wanted more than anything else. With the stress of the pending wedding it was good that she could have a fun night out.
