A Wedding + B-ball + Choir Concert + Family = A Fantastic Weekend!

This past weekend required a pen, paper and diagrams to figure out how we were going to get everyone where they needed to go and on time, with the right equipment... What a great adventure!

There were a few extra breathing moments and we filled them in with fun cousin time - sledding at the Sugarbowl and playing at the church. We even BBQ'd outside in -24 degree weather. (Crazy Canucks!) It was wonderful to have Annie and Carolyn here for a few days!

Matt's basketball team qualified for Southern Alberta Zones. They were held in Taber on Saturday. They played well and ended up winning the whole thing. So, they had a perfect season with no losses. A feat to be proud of!

Saturday was also the wedding. It was be

autiful, we hear. We did not make it there. But, we did get to two other basketball leagues for Sara and Hannah and got Parker to his afternoon choir practice in preparation for his concert that night. Back to Taber for the final game and then to Raymond for the reception.

Thanks to all our other shuttlers that day. (Amy and Aunt Barb)

We managed to all get to the reception on time for an amazing meal - catered by Vinnie! She is surely Southern Alberta's most famous caterer - and the groom's aunt! The decorations were beyond amazing!

It took two trailers to bring all the decorations to the church. Woah! Not sure that will be happening for the Stewart girls weddings! :)

Parker and Mom left after eating to get him to his Spring Concert at Southminster Church. The Chamber Choir did a fantastic job! It was a real treat. They are really working hard to perfect all their numbers in preparation for their trip to Italy next month. Meanwhile, Dave was the MC at the reception with Aunt Barb. Look out Donny and Marie! (No purple tights this time though!)

It was great to have so many events packed into one weekend, though it made our heads spin! We had a brief visit with Uncle Jim, Aunt Karin and crew. They drove down from Edmonton for one day - Saturday. That's dedicated! You should see Mark's moves on the dance floor! We topped it off with a big family dinner at Grandma's on Sunday with Aunt Carolyn, Bev, Aunt Ramona, Uncle Hugh, Bruce, Amy and boys and Justin and Heather and girls. Barb, Annie and Carolyn had to fly home yesterday. It was so much fun to have them here to play with!
