The surprise went off with out a hitch and the entire trip was wonderful. I got spend time with everyone and even see a couple of friends. It was great to be back home, but I realized that my understanding of home is changing. Belleville will always be home in the sense that my family is there, but Richland is home because Marc is here. I, of course, missed Marc but it was also good to realize that I missed my house, my dog and my Tri-City friends.
A couple of pictures to catalog my trip home:
I flew into Toronto and got to spend the night with good friends Amber and Jon. Plus I had the privilege to meet sweet Abigail for the first time. She is precious. It was so good to visit with friends.
What would a trip home be without pictures of my sweet Sophia.? My little neice is growing up so fast. She is adorable as you can see. Plus she has the funniest sense of humor. When I first walked in and surprised everybody, Sophia kept trying to get my attention. After the third attempt I finally got down and asked her what it was she wanted. Her response was, "Aunt Katrina where is Uncle Marc?" Oh that about did me in. So precious to hear my name on her lips. She hasn't forgotten us.
My sister Paula just before she left on a trip to Mexico with my nephew Shane.
I have to admit this picture is a bit of a posed one. It was re-enacted from the night before. I went to see Shane play soccer and just before the game started he came over and gave me a big hug. Then he grabbed my belly and just held on. It was pretty funny. The other nephews were not so keen on feeling the movements of their soon to be cousin. But Shane was more than happy to. It was pretty cute.
