Oct 7 - Hope

We spent our Sunday in Norquay at Derek & Ashley's wedding. It was quite a big wedding for their little congregation to host. Neither of them are super young, so they had lots of friends and congregations included in their celebration!

It was fun. It was good. It was tiring.

I got to be with Tracy for only a small moment, it felt like. She helped us clean up after the night before supper, bless her. We served 450 - 475 people at that supper. Like, Ruby had made all the food and planned and arranged everything but we were only four couples serving and we ran all evening.

We spent night at Richard & Natalie Goossen. We had never met them but isn't it wonderful that that doesn't need to hinder us? We enjoyed their hospitality very much. Especially the Sunday pants. My stars!! I had Pat's pants out and he told me he wanted to wear a different pair and I thought he was getting his pants and he thought I did. And so... an hour before the wedding started we realized that possibly we'd just go home and possibly he'd wear blue jeans to church and that's when Richard went and hauled out a pair of Sunday pants he'd just got. They were a big too long for him and that was the saving grace. Natalie and I laughed so long and hard. It was truly a very refreshing moment.

And so we went to the wedding.

I do hope I remember what I need to for the upcoming weekend.
