It was a Great Day!



Paola, our publicist, (does that not sound strange?) drove us through security at CTV at about 7:30 AM.
We took note of Lisa Laflamme's parking stall.

I'd love to say more about the background scences... but this is a late night posting. Maybe another time.


After the CTV clip Paola, representing Graff Martin,, took us to meet Ellen Graff.
They took us for a nice lunch at a local Mennonite restaurant. We had such a great time chatting that we were slmost late for a book signing in Waterloo.


After Waterloo, we were taken to Ten Thousand Villages on Niagara on the Lake . . .


A beautiful heritage town!


We entered the store, close to the clock tower, being met by unkown friends,
and unbelievable connections that I will share about another time!


It was getting dark by the time we left . . . our hearts full and our tummies ready
to settle and have some dinner. It was a long, full day
and I am filled with thanksgiving for the prayers and support
sent in so many ways.

For more details and photos of wonderful people we met

who obviously had more to give left after all was said and done.

Anneliese - you are beautiful and it was such an honour to meet you and Lovella in Waterloo!! I can't believe how thoughtful you were to bring me flowers (I should have been the one bringing YOU flowers!) and the signatures and all the kind words! Oh my - I can't even tell you how I feel.
BTW - Ruth and I have listened to the video a few times and are still puzzling about what it was you said :). Hope you are home safe and sound by the time you read this!

What an exciting day! For the record, you both look fabulous!

It was so great to meet you! And I love your new cookbook - it is beautiful! I can't wait to try some new recipes - just in time too, as there will be some big celebrations in my family this year!

Karin, I am so glad I got to meet you too! It is quite surreal to only recognize a person by name and then finally meet and no longer seem anonymous. I wish you many blessings in your family in your celebrations coming up. Thank you for coming to the store.

Just a little something from Judy said...

Wow! You both look great! What an exciting adventure! I love seeing how God works and how He leads His children.
