Summer of house building and pinoy weddings

Of course, being home was excellent to see family. Matt and Yuko were home from Japan with their little baby Anna. As well, Luke and Dalia came up with Haley from Singapore for a few weeks. And, Leah and John came up from Lethbridge every once in a while to make it the whole Turner get together.










The major part of time at home consisted of going to the land 4-5 times a week and working with Daniel, Mark, Pops and Mom. It was great working all day with them, the traveling and sleeping, listening to music everytime we pulled into Airdrie, and reading books. And our daily drafts. What a sight seeing the house being built.




Another great part of the summer was the wedding the Philippines. One of May's cousins, Mone, who we stay with her and her family every time in Manila, was married a great guy Clark. It was a great wedding - what a weekend. My good friend Kelly Jo was visiting from Canada so she was along for the ride, as well as we met with my good buddy Scott, an old University mate who is now living in Manila teaching. The family was kind enough to allow both of them to come to the wedding and it was a great time. We had some dance offs, Scott made some new friends and was with May's awesome family. Good times



As some may know, I've been playing ultimate frisbee on a team here for the last 2 years. Made of mostly Singaporeans, we have traveled to a few tournaments in Manila, Kuala Lumpur and even Bali (which they won - I wasn't there. Go figure). It is a great bunch of people, love playing the game and you meet heaps of people from around Asia in the tournaments. At the end of August, we were in the Singapore Open. We finished 5th, but we hoped we could have done better. Looking for some more tournaments though and hopefully do better.



This is the only one I could find that showed me actually doing something...they just like me for this reason - to catch the discs up high. Guess it helps to be a tall white guy
