Swap and Birthday pictures

Here is the cool Aurora postcard from the swap with Deb H. -- don't you love that Angelina fiber sparkling across the Alaskan sky? The thread work flower has a shisha mirror as its center and the thread work holding it in has a spiral!

I need a new coat and was planning on a simple wool one of grey or black. I'm already planning to attach my flower pin to the lapel. Thanks again, Deb!!

Here are the pictures from Amelia's birthday dinner on Friday night.

Amelia and her grandfather made a cute couple...

until Chris arrived with his "Mohawk" and Amelia divides her attention.








I made Fee lean WAAAY over so I could get a picture with Laddie.

  9. A handsome family is right! I like to see people's families--there's something about all these beautiful young people of the next generation that is really moving. {Not that the older generation is lacking anything--:)}
