Sunday, the day of rest! Yeah, right!! Brunch with Kristie and Jenna was on the agenda this morning and after a quick call to my friend Melanie, I convinced her to come join us. The Sherwood restaurant in Brantford has the best brunch with everything from roast beef and ham, every breakfast food you could ask for, tons of different salads and then a humungous table of desserts!

Awwww...my friend Mellie!

Jenna presented me with a picture she colored and her abilities with the crayons astounded me for a 4 year old!

We dove into the buffet against our better judgement after yesterday's festivities and caught up on some more visiting between bites.

Afterwards, Lyndon went off to do some visiting with his family and Jane and I went shopping for baking ingredients. Since Lyndon was now in town, I cancelled my flight home and decided to drive back with him so I now had to have the baking done to take to HBBS on Monday instead of Tuesday. With all of the ingredients for some butterfly cupcakes and lemon filled angel food cake purchased (along with a pair of shoes that were totally unnecessary) we headed back to Jane's. Since mom and dad were expecting me for supper, I made a quick call to my friend Tim and arranged for him to be my dinner date and then whipped up a cinnamon raisin bread pudding to take for dessert (like we needed it!!).

Tim picked me up and we were off to Hagersville for yet another meal. After knowing Tim for so many years and him listening to me talk about my parents it was nice that he finally got to meet them. It was a short visit but both mom and dad were exhausted from yesterday's party and honestly, after consuming so much food over the past 3 days I felt the need to hibernate! Before leaving and because I now had access to a vehicle to pack things in for the return trip to New Brunswick, mom and dad loaded me up with some porceline dolls to display in the house, my grandmother's painting easle and a few jars of tomatoe butter. It was also no suprise that dad came out with a marble board for me to deliver to Jane so she has no excuse not to be a pro the next time she sees them!

On the road again, Tim and I chatted all the way back to Jane's.

Jane had a dinner guest, her friend Anne which is why she didn't come to mom and dad's as well. When I returned they were just getting ready to watch a movie so we snuggled in to our respective chairs with comfy blankets and ended up chatting and getting acquainted during the entire movie (which by the way was Mama Mia and Pierce Bronson can't sing!) Anne is a dear lady and is planning a trip down to my house this summer along with Jane and a couple other ladies...can't wait!

Well, another day down. The days are too short and I feel like I'm running out of time! Tomorrow is my last day and there are still lots of people I want to see. I'm tired!
