We have been waiting for a long time for my sister to get married.  She has been dating Jon for almost seven years now, and she is the last of us “kids” to get married.  We treat Jon like a brother anyway, so we knew that it would just be a matter of time before they decided to tie the knot.

What we didn’t expect was that they were going to get married overseas – in fact, they wanted to get married in Australia.  Having never been there (either us or them), they didn’t know how they were going to make it happen, but they were going to figure it out.

After looking online for Australia destination weddings, they were able to get in touch with a civil wedding celebrant that was going to help them make their dream of getting married in Mackay Queensland, Australia a reality.

The wedding date is just a short month away – I can’t wait to see how it turns out and be able to officially welcome Jon into the family.

For the past week or so, I have been holed up in my basement sitting right in front of my computer.  If you are wondering why I am so riveted to the screen, well, I have a story to tell you:  the computer game that I have been waiting for all year is finally out.

Kill some zombies with me in Left 4 Dead!

I’ll have to admit, I love zombie movies and this game is geared for people like me.  Basically you and a team of four survivors must try and make it to the extraction point while wading through hundreds of zombies.

It not only gives you the sense of being in one of those infamous zombie movies, but sometimes you quit playing because you are just too on edge.

Anyway, I should get back to playing – my friends need me!
