Some of the happenings...

...of the last month, well really this weekend since I haven't been taking many photos. The warmest it's been in the last 4 weeks is about -25, until yesterday. Now it's a balmy 4 degrees and the great melt has begun (hopefully). We (well, I) have been busy with wedding plans, visiting with friends, estudiar espanol, and watching too much downloaded television (which is over now!) These are the reasons I have not been sewing even though I have several projects on the go. It's easy to blame everything on the cold too.

It was Anthony's 9th birthday

Digging for woolly mammoth

Gord shared his dinner with Mari

We made fennel risotto (this is for you Chris)

Played some poker with the family (Anthony kicked our butts)

and practiced our poker faces

Gord's been enjoying his Cuban cigars

And practicing impersonating Che

For some reason, in -30 Calgary winter some of the plants are blooming

And the cats have been cuddly and providing much entertainment while we have been hibernating indoors
