I have been a slack attack blogger. I feel like many things have happened in the past 2 months, so I will encompass these things into one blog of awesomeness!
March 22nd: Nikki & Jon Jon's wedding!
We had such a good time the whole weekend of Nikki & Jon Jon's wedding preparing for the day! We went down to Burlington/Oakville on the Thursday evening and stayed in a hotel in Oakville on Thursday night. I chose the most inexpensive hotwire deal with free breakfast :) The next day, Aleksy conveniently needed to be in Toronto for work, so he took the GO train in. We went our separate ways on Friday the night before the wedding where I stayed with the bride at her house and Aleksy stayed with the groom in the hotel room.
Nikki & Jon Jon's wedding venue was gorgeous and everything was done so elegantly but fun! The day was really cold, so after taking a few pictures after the ceremony outside, we moved most of the pictures inside. Then we entered the reception (Aleksy and I prepared a little hip hop entrance, which we thought was pretty sweet) and Nikki & Jon Jon had their first dance where they did the Dirty Dacing "Time of my Life" dance.. so amazing!
Aleksy and I after eating our dinner at the beautiful venue right on the lake. The wedding was at Spencers in Burlington.
Following this was speeches, drinks & dancing!
And later in the evening... I love this group shot... just Aleksy is missing.
At 1am, we headed back to the hotel in the limo and tried to continue the partying at the bar at the waterfront hotel, but by the time we got there it was 1:30am and they wouldn't let us in.
So we decided to just bring the party to the room. And had an awesome after party. Thank goodness for Nikki & Jon Jon not liking champagne, so they gave us the bottle from the limo because no one had opened it during the day!
March Birthdays!
My Rachel is 6 years old!! I don't know how this happened. We had a celebration at my sisters place and at my Moms place for my Rachel. March and & April are so birthday cake-filled! I love cake...
And Natalia turned 3 on March 17th! We went up to Stoneycreek for birthday celebrations and Andzelika set up a cookie decorating activity. There were a few other kids at the birthday party too and they were all so cute loading up the icing and sprinkles on their cookies! You can see Natalia's cookie that she decorated in front of her...
My 28th Birthday!
I had a few birthday celebrations this year, which I love because it means that I get lots of cake!
On the day of my birthday, Chelsea and Warren surprised me and after Aleksy took me out for Swiss Chalet (my fav!), and showed up in the evening for dessert. Chelsea homemade me a cake! This cake was sooooo delicious! We ate about half it on my birthday and I finished it before my birthday party on the Friday.
On April 4th, we had a birthday celebration + stag & doe planning day at our place. We had everyone over for supper, where everyone helped by bringing a side dish and we made chicken and sausages on the bbq. Afterward we had (more) cake and talked about games & food for the stag & doe!
We also popped a bottle of champagne just before this picture and made sure we got a picture with Sam, who hasn't had a drink since her little Scarlett was born and Chelsea with her half sip and pregnant belly!
As Rachel pointed out, Scarlett, me and Rachel all had black bows in our hair, so we had to take a picture together! And I love this picture of Rachel looking all wide-eyed and Scarlett looking all 'wad up'.
Chelsea's Baby Shower: April 13th!
We had the awesomest table at the shower. Sam & Scarlett, Steph & Colton, Andzelika, Serena & Natalia, Jasmine, Nikki & me! Awesome table with lots of Moms, but we did somehow lose the competition of dressing the teddy bear the fastest. Maybe I was the weak link?
I love how every shower that I attend, the ensemble that is chosen by the pregnant mama is the most pregnant looking one! Chelsea looked ready to have her baby yesterday at her shower! But then the next day in her jeans looked like she has 3 mre months. Can't wait for baby in early June! (Although I'm guessing an early baby... my guess is May 25th).
Me & my Colton at the shower! Love when I get to spend some quality Colton time... Cant believe he's one!
