My precious new friend, Barbie, and me on the ferry ride to Nova Scotia. We went over for a weekend women's retreat in June that was sponsored by our convention.
What a special treat for BC 'parents', Mom Karen and Papa Marv Harris, to make a visit! It was somewhat unexpected and though we didn't have much time together, I sure did enjoy lunch with them and the birthday gifts. They and their family are a special part of my life since my 98 summer in Vancouver.
I had 2 birthday celebrations this year. One at John and Erin's place for dinner, cake, and games with church friends and then a week later with some girlfriends from church, as we went for dinner and the restaurant gave me a cake, and then we enjoyed going to see the musical, Anne and Gilbert!
What would the summer had been without a visit to the Anne of Green Gables house with Barbie, and our summer missionaries, Freda & Kendall. We enjoyed many outings together and they are my special friends.
Kendall, Freda, Seth, and I had crazy times together. If you didn't meet K & F earlier, read about them below. Seth is a seminary student who was in the Summerside/Slemon Park area doing his Nehemiah church planting internship. I think at every park we were at this summer, we went back to our childhood and played! I miss these guys!!!
I tried mussels for the first time and actually liked them, though I can't eat to many or my tummy hurts!
Now, this was not one of my most favorite parts of the summer, but quite an experience...holding a jellyfish! Of course, it has no tentacles, but it sure did leave my hands all slimy!
