Lindsay "Bare-Buns" Gets Married!


This past weekend, the family traveled up to Seattle for the wedding of my cousin Lindsay and her, now husband Paul. Lindsay Blair, kindly nicknamed Lindsay Bare-Buns by the Harker Family is really close to Blake's age and they were always so fun to watch play together when they were kiddos. At the wedding it was great to get to see Aunts and Uncles and Cousins I haven't seen in a very long time! The wedding was gorgeous! Lindsay was, of course, GORGEOUS! Funny that we didn't take a single picture of the whole group.

Got in a ton of lovely Trent time. He chose to stay in my room with me and we had SO MUCH FUN! Between sneaking off to slip funny notes under his parents' door and telling ghost stories (mine was the one about the girl that always wore the green ribbon around her neck. Her husband, always asked her to remove it - she refused. Finally on his death bed she granted him his wish to see her without the green ribbon...and her head fell off!) we laughed forever at that one! Best time of our sleep over was in the morning when he gets up to go to the bathroom and I hear him, but wasn't ready to be awake. All the sudden there's a tiny whisper voice in my face saying, "Aunt Jamie...there's something wrong with the soap!" Without opening my eyes I say, "I don't get it - what's wrong with the soap!?" Best reply ever, "It's too dry and scratchy!" The greatest smile on my face as I reply - "oh...buddy...you have to wet the soap first." Man does that kid make my day or what!?

We downloaded a lot of games on my phone for the car ride back. Fruit Ninja was our fav! I get to watch him again Saturday night while Jake and Denise go out for her birthday. It's going to be SO MUCH FUN! I'm hoping to get some moving of some boxes to the new house on Saturday morning and then the BIG stuff will be moved with the help from my brothers the next Saturday. Hopefully one of these days I'll have everything in one location. Fingers Crossed.

The new house has plug-ins for good smell (even though it's brand new), a rug, my new mattress and box spring and the wood blinds Jake helped me install last Sunday. It's coming along very slowly but surely.
