Today my Aunt Linda and Uncle Chris came down to visit us to buy a car from grandma's friend Jane. They really needed another car since awhile back their van got written off from an accident, and their other cars windshield got busted when something fell on it in their garage. They currently only had a little sunfire beater and needed another vehicle...because especially I know how hard it can be to share only one car..let alone in Lethbridge but it probably would be even worse in Calgary!
We really had a good visit for them too, they told us how the girls were doing and how the boys were doing too. She told us more about Lindsey and Ross and how they are doing in their new place. They congradulated me on getting a job in red deer (endoscopy unit) and for getting my drivers ed. It was nice knowing how much they support me in what we do. While they were there we had lunch at grandmas, she made spaghetti with homemade sauce. It tasted the same as it did when she used to make it for us as kids, it was bringing back memories for me. I always loved my grandmas cooking, whatever she makes its normally good if not better. We also had some salad, then later we went to a candy store for some Ice cream.
The candy store that we went to is called Sweet Ideas and they live behind grandmas apartment building. It is cute because they have the old fashioned candy store ambiance about it and sort of a 50's dinner feel. They had like a raised Sundae bar, we had some ice cream there. I had pinacolada cheesecake, Jesse had bubblegum tutti frutti, mom had chocolate cherry, grandma had butter pecan and uncle Chris and aunt Linda had pistachio (Theirs was my favorite)
Later on Uncle Chris gave both mom and I blessings. It was nice because Uncle Chris explained to Jesse about what a blessing is in the proper way, because I kept on trying to explain to him the purpose of them and why I wanted one. I hope he understood after he explained what it was to him though. But the blessing was exactly what I needed, it gave me clarity and made me feel comfort.
But that was our visit. I truly love my Uncle and Aunt and am so glad that I am going to living somewhat close to them so that I can go visit them.
