Winter song, spring song

March has been a good month of friends. I've had visitors three weekends in a row: Theresa, Lisa, Kaeli, and Trixie.


Additionally, my brother and his wife moved into their snazzy new house. My brother has been working like a...hard working man building it for the past year and a half. They had a very large and very warm housewarming party last weekend to celebrate and got Colleen Brown (our talented cousin) to play a house concert. I took a little video of the show just for fun:



As I mentioned, my friend Trixie is visiting us from Vancouver this weekend and we started the day yesterday with this video: Winter Song but then we went outside and it wasn't really very wintry after all. The next thing we did was enjoy an excellent breakfast at the Mill Creek Cafe with Dave, Jamie, Joel and Trixie. I had a fried egg sandwich and orange juice and found a sweet photo of a man riding a lion in the Edmonton Journal. You can't ask for a better breakfast.


As a first bonus, we ended up walking down Whyte on one of the first days that felt like spring. And as a second bonus we discussed oxford commas and other similar delights as we walked in the sunshine.

The weekend continued with pizza, Balderdash, church at King's, coffee with Scott (and Francis and Geneva), Guinness wings at O'Byrnes, and a movie night.

I freaking love weekends.

  2. Lisa is very alluring in that photo. Almost too much, in fact.
