Vancouver Trip Part Deux
I'm back from Vancouver for the second time, this time it was for a wedding, and not mine. The trip was good, but felt short. We left after work on Wednesday and got in to Calgary around 1am. The next morning got up and drove right to Vancouver. We should have taken our time. I'm a little disappointed in myself that we didn't stop and enjoy the scenery. We did make good time though.
Friday we spent most of our time shopping. I felt I didn't have much of a wardrobe for an outdoor wedding. We did find some linen pants and a good pair of shoes. We also spent some time looking for a wedding gift.
Saturday was Marsha's nephew's 2nd birthday party. About 40 people stormed the house. Fun, never attended a 2 year olds birthday since oh, 19 years ago. The theme was a monkey theme with banana invitations and a monkey cake. Very cute I can say. We thought of doing something, just Marsha and I, while in Vancouver, but didn't make those plans either. Good thing we're both planners.
Sunday was the wedding. We went to church in the morning then for a lunch. We still had to get the rest of the gift for the wedding, so were a little rushed. The wedding was for a friend of Marsha's. It was an outdoor wedding. The father did the ceremony, the pastor of Marsha's family's church. The reception was at a church hall where there were orderves. I prepared myself for a light snack, so pig'd out at lunch. (didn't eat much at all at the reception) There was a Jazz combo set in the corner for the night. Gave it a nice feeling, although I didn't get to strut my stuff on the dance floor too much, can't really jazz dance.
All in all a good weekend, with much time spent with Marsha, 149 consecutive hours. I do like the west and plan to live in one of the western provinces for good.

Don't you already live in a western province?
Or are you thinking Alberta or BC as a goal in the future?
