I love Ann with an E!



One of my dreams came true this summer, I visited PEI. To be more specific, Green Gables.
I know that Anne is a fictional character (I am not delusional), but I love her. A big part of my love comes from watching the movies with my grandma and sisters in BC. I am not going to lie, I got a little emotional when we first crossed over to the island. Thinking of my grandma, my family and days gone by - I sound like I am an old lady - but family is really the only thing that gets to this stone cold heart. Every lake we passed became the lake of shinning waters, and every old man we saw was Matthew. Bart was a good sport and managed to keep his manhood -he was the photographer. I could go on and on but it was one of the most beautiful and peaceful places I have been. We plan to back in a few years and spend at least a week - Bart agreed because there is a golf course on every corner - maybe when the kids are older and we save our pennies.
The sand dune where Diana and Anne would go for walks. Right behind a beach we played at, the sand was nicer than the sand in Hawaii and the water was not as cold as I expected. Ethan, my little chicken, went in up to his chest.
My male versions of Anne.
Temper included!
