Jacci comes to vist!!

Yay!......I had the absolute pleasure of seeing my lovely old roommate Jacci this weekend! She took the clipper over from Seattle on friday morning and we had an incredible weekend! On Saturday morning we all participated in the Stolen Sisters memorial march to remember the missing and murdered aboriginal women across Canada (especially in B.C). I found out about this march through the commitee I'm a part of (Equity + Outreach) and I knew Jacci would love to celebrate Valentine's day this way! It was really really sad to hear so many people speak of women they had lost but it was also incredible moving. Here are some pictures....



Waiting for everyone to start marching!


The whole crew came! (I really appreciate it by the way..)




Jacci cooked us a lovely "Russian" meal on Saturday night! Amazing!!!

Mohawk......


On Sunday, Jacci, David and I went to a tea convention! (The biggest in North America). It was AMAZING! I bought a lot of yummy tea and ate about 8000 pounds of pastries...mmm I rolled home.
Anyway, It was such a fabulous weekend. As usual, whenever I hang out with Jack, we have so much fun. I am so happy I was able to see her...(if you're reading this, miss you already!!). In the words of a wise one, I'm sending peace and blessings to everyone! Take care
