Monika's wedding was fantastic!

So it's been almost a week since Monika's wedding and I am finally getting on here to talk about...though Sarah and I have transferred the pictures onto our facebook page,

As both Sarah and Ella would say, Monika looked "absolutely gggorgggeous!!!! (as you can see I stressed the g's :) Really Monika was absolutely the star of the day (Tom too, but you know the bride is always the center of the wedding day). It was such a great day, the ceremony was in the afternoon at Tom's macedonian orthodox church, which I had never been too before and it was a really interesting ceremony. Sarah has been in a church like this before since she grew up in a ukrainian orthodox church so she was quite familiar but it was definitely new for me. I really enjoyed myself and seeing Monika so happy made me feel so happy for her.

The evening was at Le Parc in Richmond Hill. The whole night was great, from the entertainment, the food and the very special slide show that Monika and Tom ran to show pictures of them when they were young, I think that was the highlight of the evening. Ella came with us so we ended up having to leave at around 11pm (quite early), but she was exhausted, she has never stayed up that late in her short life.

The next day, Ella was quite cranky when waking at 7am. That day she started her first kinder gymnastic program at Kinder Bounce, on Magnetic Dr near Dufferin and Steeles. She went with her good friend Dylan who is also our next door neighbough. She had a blast and cannot wait until this Sunday when she goes back. This place is pretty great b/c they have gymnastic equipment for small children, we were really impressed.

So this weekend we are actually going to try and have a quiet one, no running around, nothing. We are really looking forward to this, it has been too busy lately!
Have a great weekend!
