Saturday , July 2nd

I slept in until 11 am : greg had woken me up.... so ya, i relaxed and got a shower until 12 pm. From 12- 1:30 p.m, i watched jumanji! ( an amazing movie about a boy that finds a boardgame in his dad`s dactory or an old house ( not sure which of the two!) and basically, the game is like possessed or sumthin and like when you roll the dice, your given a riddle and an animal appears and the only way to get rid of it is to finish the game!

Anyways from 1:30 -2;30 p.m , i got changed into my tuxedo ( yep thats right,, i got lots of photos!). From about 3 pm to about 4é5 pm, the wedding ceremony took place! Here is a summary of the ceremony:

- the lighting of 2 small candles

- a prayer for the two being wed ( my mom and my soon-to-be stepdad!)
- 2 songs were played `` lean on me`and ``I swear`` which was accompanied by a guitar and sung by one of my female cousin ( sorry, have to keep this anonymous...you`ll have to ask for more details!)

- the wedding vows and exchange of weddings rings

- the lighting of one big candle using the two little ones

,etc..

from 4 or 5 to 7 pm, i was around for the following events:

- the preparing of food

- dinner of which i chose to eat:
() fish sticks ( balls)
() shrimp tarts( didn`t like them)
() and other great food ( i`ll probably remember after im done writing this blog!)

- speeches by my uncles, aunts, a short one by me, the wife and the husband,etc..

- lots of toasts ( although i refused to drink any wine!)

- dancing ( everything from slow dances to newfie style jigs)

At around 7:30 p.m, Jacob T. came to pick me up ( we didn`t leave til 8 or 8: 30 p.m due to needing to get changed, get our bags put away,etc...)

So ya from 9- 10:30 p.m, we were listening to the Live 8 concert in Johannesburg via radio including the following bands:
