Thanksgiving 2012

After enjoying an abundant Thanksgiving dinner, it is time to relax and enjoy the rest of the day.
I made a pumpkin roll with a cream cheese filling.  Delicious!
Relaxing & engaging in one of my favorite pastimes - cross stitch

Visions of Texas

I spent last week cruising around Texas just exploring.
Stumbled upon this great quilting store in Waxahachie.

Dubrovnik Sunset

In September I had the great fortune of spending 2 weeks in Croatia.  I took these one evening from a boat as the sun was setting in Dubrovnik.

New Master Bedroom Quilt

Storm Sandy brought many power outages to our area.  We were left unscathed but, the town where I work lost power, and as a result, I had a whole week off!  I used the time to finish my latest quilt and make matching pillows.  It took longer than I anticipated but, I am truly happy with the result.
Of course my boy had to be in one of the pictures!

The Brooklyn Bridge

I always wanted to walk over the Brooklyn bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn.

We went out for a Greek dinner and dessert.

Happy Easter

Scenes from New Hampshire

We drove to New Hampshire yesterday to watch our son play tennis with his college team.  At the last minute I threw my winter down jacket on the back seat of the car just in case I needed it ... and yes, I needed it.  What looked like a nice spring day turned chilly by the time we got there.
