Nield DaniLyn Nield.
2011 is the new summer 06 even thoughhhh as you all know... 2006 was my funniest year as a person ( Sorry Christy...but I think we both know the floating man dance move beats the slushy machine.. You win.)
Started off the month with a bang. Small wedding. That night itself was my favourite. I've already dedicated a whole blog about this event so I'm going to switch to the next big event.... I will however mention that Lindsay Nield's version of Champagne showers beats any version you will ever see on youtube....going to be a little hard to see her version when she's carrying a small child...but get her while she's still tiny ( she's pushing 5 months and she's still a bean) it will blow your mind. ALSO if you are planning on having a photobooth at your wedding..could you PLEASE invite Lauge Nielsen....best solo photoboother around...
Sooooo MY childhood bff Lauren Baarscheers conceived her child on my wedding night... I mean...clearly a great night had by all ( you should also throw my name in there Lauren )!!!!! Congrats you two I am so flippin excited for you two...you are already amazing parents to Jace and I can't wait for the new addition!!! ALSO a small shout out to my favourite/ most wonderful hair dresser Lynsey Bowles who ALSO indirectly conceived a child shortly before my wedding....congrats to you and Randy!!!! All these kids are giving me babyyy fever :) I'll stick to Godmother for a few more years though...
Shortly after the wedding, Marcello ( Shaylyn's second half) tells me he's going to propose. WOAH talk about a double whammy ( well... at this point I don't know Nielder is carrying a child)....So I am over the moon and it's taking everything in me not to just tell her because between her, Linds and I... nothing goes unsaid...BUT on October 28th (talk about making a girl sweat thinking it's going to be anyyy dayyy now)... he made one of my bffs the happiest girl in the world!!! Stay tuned for the Shay Solinas Fairytale wedding!!!!
A couple days after the wedding...Jame and I are hanging out in our loft ( clearly starring at each other in the eyes telling each other how much we love each other) talking about maybe going camping for the weekend. The fact he was moving to Europe a few weeks later didn't give us much time for a honeymoon... SO we decided we would wait and have it in Europe once we got there... Well...Jamie decided to book us a last minute flight to VEGAS for 5 days!! We left at 3am that night. The weather was amazing and we had such an amazing time ( hence why we are going back in may...) BUT the only small problem about this trip was that....I didn't know drinks were FREE at EVERY casino in Vegas AND to top it off EVERY hotel had a casino :s sooo...Jamie MIGHT have gone to see the steel panthers by himself seeing as at 11pm I was asleep in my salad bowl at the House of Blues...( okayy BUT Jamie hit a wall at some point during the day too AND recovered!) BUt really...who has a concert at 11:30pm??.....He did mention it was the best concert he's ever seen..!!! Come may, I promised Jamie I will not be in bed by 10pm
Which brings me to my next event...BAYFEST!!! There's just something about best friends, palm bays and blarney chips. Nielder and I awaited Christy Max, Ash & Hyder as they graced Sarnia with their delightful presence. You can't go anywhere with these girls without making friends. It doesn't matter how old you are or if you creeping around with ripped jeans and an exposed bum...they don't judge and are always willing to go all out. Did I mention how good blarney chips are from Paddys? Between the 5 of us I think we ordered enough for a small community. OH and Lady Antebellum was awesome....
Seeing as Bayfest was short lived....we decided to join all the girls together + Cindy & Shay and take part in PECKERWOOOD.
Now here's a little history on Peckerhood...My friend Gresham's family owns a beautiful barn and they throw a big party once a year ( themed) and it's just a night you don't want to miss.....SOOO this years theme is DISCO.
Clearly I go ALL out ( I even get my mother in law to whip me up a nice pair of bellbottoms) and get my costume on before I go to the party...Well...don't I pull a legally blonde moment ( you know when she dresses up like the bunny and everyone else is dressed normal). Gresh's dad had a nice beautiful benefit dinner with all his friends during the day as Gresh, Nielder and other people hang by the pool and play games ( dressed normally).
So I pull up like this...
How do you explain yourself when all these business men and women see this THING creeping out of Marcello's white hummer? Well....the ONLY normal thing to do is grab Gresh's dad in the middle of the dinner and dance the salsa with him.
So here we are with our coolers full of palm bays and quite possibly one of the best group of girls you can put together ( clearly.. minus the few that couldn't come)....
Girls like to eat. Soo...NOT knowing that Gresh's dad had a benefit dinner with his friends before the big party....we made our way to the food and lined up.... Little did we know... the people in the barn that were there early paid for the dinner as a benefit for a charity...oupps....but CLEARLY Gresh's dad told us to go inside and eat once everyone had their food...dear soul...we've already done that!!!! I'd also like to point out that we met a dolphin at Peckerwood. We met a guy that saved a guy that was drowning and we named him the dolphin...Small hero.
Finally...there are too many stories from Peckerwood and this blog is getting quite large....But here's a few more pictures from an UNFORGETTABLE night.
I got caked
To finish off my July Blog... I got a call from Nielder... She couldn't wait to tell me in person....but she is PREGNANT... I almost dropped the phone I was so exciteddd... We met up with Shay at Starbucks to tell her the news and I'll never be able to go there again and not picture that moment... three best friends on a couch screaming and crying. There is no better feeling in the world then sharing special moments with the people you love most in the world.
To those of you who made my July the most amazing month of my life.... Thank You!!!! I would also like to add that the month's MVP goes out to..................... Christy Maxfield.
OH AND Lauge Nielsen for his STELLAR performance in the photobooth
OH MY GOOODNESS I almost forgot.... The BIRTH of my second nephew!!!! On July 4th my sister in law WALKED herself to the hospital ( I mean...she wasn't 3cms or anything...with her bff Lyns Bowles.)....We were able to literally stay at the door and listen to the whole thing go down... Lyns had a silent birth w no epidural ( totally was being her own person)!!!! Fraser Anthony Philipsen was born and I might be bias but tied w cutest baby with my other nephew and niece ( clearly!!) Love you baby Frase<3
