Welcome Wall Hanging

I finally finished my welcome wall hanging I started a year ago.  I took a class on the buggy barn technique.  It is quite an interesting way of cutting out and sewing together, but I wasn't sure that I like the technique enough to do a bed sized quilt so I just chose a wall hanging to do.  We had to purchase one of the buggy barn books and then chose one of the projects.  You can buy the books in just about any quilting store or order them online. Here is their website to look at all the neat quilts! http://www.buggybarnquilts.com/

Nail Day

Nicoles nail art

My old claw.  you can't really see the nails that well.

Nicole and I went to get manicures today.  I haven't had one in years and everytime I look at the mess that is my nails, I cringe.  We also had to take Nicole's mind off the fact that Ryan was in the air on his was to Korea.  I had a very nice young fellow do my nails.  Nicole got nail art done that was just fantastic. Both of us a loathe to do any kind of house work now.

Happy Valentines Day

Okay so it's a day late.  I did go out to lunch with a group of ladies for Valentines Day.  That was fun.  A little restaurant called Roast Bistro.  Fantastic food.  For any one acquainted with Canadian pop culture, the father of the owner and operator was Peter Rawlston who was a children's  television entertainer for many years.  I remember him from my childhood.

Nicole and Ryan

My children all had wonderful dates with their sweeties for Valentines Day.  Nicole went with Ryan for Japanese food and to see the Ballet  Coppilia.  She really enjoyed it.  Ryan has left today for a year in South Korea.
Michael and Troy went out to a restaurant for Pad Thai, with some friends.

Michael and Ryan

 Jimmy cooked Brittany dinner in the kitchen and then took it out to the motor home so they could have a private dinner.  Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of them, because she never came in the house.
My mother in law wasn't feeling well so she came to our house on Sunday, because she didn't want to be alone.  So Arnie and I had Chinese food with her and watched Young Frankenstein.  It is a hilarious
movie, I don't think my mil cared for it though.
