Well, it has been 7 months and a bit since I wrote on my blog, and alot has happened. Time has gone so quickly and life got busy ... which is good, but it left me little time to update this blog. I hope next year will be better.
So we have a new addition to our family. Remember Tami's friend Mike? He was in the May 3rd entry of my blog. Well, Mike is now Tami's husband. Yes, my youngest daughter got married. Thinking back a year ago, when we were unsure what the year would bring, well, it brought Mike. Michael Jason Woolley. They had been dating several months. Then in June I got this call from Tami saying that she really cared for this guy. A few hours later, I got another call from Mike, telling me that he wanted to marry her. They chose August 14th to be married. They had a civil ceremony in our friend's (Wayne and Jasmine Burton) home and it was a beautiful day, despite the weather. Thanks to the support and talents of Jasmine, her mom Judy Chan, Michael's family, Pat Standing (my bishop's wife) and Trish Standing and her remarkable decorating talents, the house was transformed from a home to a bridal parlour. I am truly blessed with great friends who were there to help us put this wedding together on a very limited budget. My boss came to the rescue the night before the wedding with extra decorations. My visiting teacher companion, Lorinda and my visiting teachers helped the day of the wedding. Betty Lou Forsyth did the cake and it was absolutely beautiful. My former boss, who is a judge but also a bishop, Eric Peterson performed the ceremony. He was inspired with his words of wisdom. There were about 60 invited guests for the ceremony.
Mike is an accountant and Tami is finishing her final year in her Master's (Psychology) at the University of Edmonton. Both are working very hard. Mike recently passed his National exam for Accountants. Tami has been asked by a former professor to be his Teacher's Assistant. It is just a few hours a week, but on top of her assignments, reports, practicum, she is keeping very busy.
