Victoria Day weekend
Friday, May 23, 2008
We just got back from Toronto on Tuesday after spending the long weekend with my family. You know, that sentence sounds like we spent a lot of time together but in reality, there was very little time spent with family members. It always seems like there's no time to just sit down, relax, and chat. Part of it is because we haven't been back in a while so there were errands to run and we were in town for a friend's wedding. More on that later. 
Enough rambling. I got to see my nieces and nephews. Hong and Hung are so cute. Hong does this great impression of the Hulk. Hung is a night owl and sleeps mostly during the day. He's so cute though - even when he's sleeping he's got a smile on his face. Anson is growing so fast. Take a look at those cheeks and biceps. :) He's seven months old now and very heavy. We bought him a few outfits when we were in Fishkill. I think he will grow into them very nicely. I hope they come visit during the July 1st weekend. It will be their first trip to Ottawa.
On Victoria Day, we attended the wedding of a good friend of mine. It was the first Sri Lankan wedding I've ever attended. The ceremony was a full Roman Catholic one with communion. The reception was held at a banquet hall and the food was really good. Jeff isn't a big fan of curry but he really liked the mutton curry they served. The only disappointment for me was that there was no butter chicken. I was looking forward to trying it. I wanted to know what authentic butter chicken tasted like. I guess I will have to settle on butter chicken from the local English pub.
Our next trip? Edmonton in June. I can't wait. :)
Toodles,
Pudgy
