Jamie and Craig's Wedding



Hey Friends
I AM still alive...believe it or not! Our summer mission adventure programs are in full swing - and we are having a blast!! We are busier than ever especially with the wedding of our good friends Jamie (who played guitar at my wedding) and Craig. It was a beauitful outdoor wedding, and we had a fabulous time. Unfortunately, Leigh being the committed leader that he is, stayed back at the YWAM base with the teams to allow our other staff to go to the wedding...awwwww - what a servant!
Our house has been quite a hub of action lately with all the MA work going on and with our roomie Audrey being a bridesmaid for Jamie's wedding. My gorgeous little goddaughter was such a beautiful flower girl.
Jamie asked me to do her hair for the wedding, which made me feel so honoured, and I was priveleged enough to help make some corsages for the mother of the bride/groom, grandmom's and guest book people, as well as help set up the reception and ceremony area. It was a gorgeous day, and we had so much fun! It was great fun to see Emily again this weekend too. *sigh* I love her!

Burstin' With Broadway!

Image
I've joined an awesome choir called Burstin' with Broadway. It is so much fun cause it's open to anyone that wants to be a part of a choir for fun, and all the songs that we sing are Broadway type musicals. We only meet once a week, and throughout the week we have a CD to practice with (many of the choir members actually can't read music) But it's so amazing to see how excited everyone is to be a part of this choir and how surprised they are at themselves for what they have accomplished. Somedays it's surprises me to. In the photo you will see some of the compilations we are singing this season. We will soon be singing our pieces in some elite places like the local old folks home...and our final concert will be June 10/06, at a United church in North Vancouver. Click here for the website!

The Art of Making Mistakes

Image
  I don't know if you have ever struggled with your "bits n pieces" of art being good enough for general public viewing.  I love to draw doodley art/tangles/words... mindlessly on bits of paper especially while watching TV or listening to music.  I would never classify it as "fine" art.  I do it to relax - and because I'm  trying to slow down, I'll often make errors in the process from impatience or distraction. They are far from perfect. Not poetically beautiful. Not necessarily powerful or inspirational.  And are littered with mistakes. A few weeks ago, I saw my talented son draw a beautiful picture and half way through, throw it in the bin.  I asked him why he would throw away such a beautiful piece of work and he grunted "too many mistakes" and then "Its not how I imagined it to look." Oh boy - did I relate!   We want to hide our mistakes or start over... forget that we were so stupid to make such a big blunder in the first place.
