How 'Cute' Are We??


C'mon now, we're ADORABLE!!! Pictured above, Jennifer and I are touring the convention center floor at the Orlando Scrapbook Expo last week. Pictured below, Lisa wants to go on record as NOT wanting to walk around the center with her headgear! We three had a marvelous time, taking a 90 minute class as well as checking out all the exhibits had to offer. New album styles, tools and stamps will all add to our creativity in our shared hobby.

The Quilt Shoppe


Giving up my three fish tanks in Port St. Lucie, gives me ALOT of time to try some new hobbies. My latest is learning the art of quilting. I've purchased a lovely new sewing machine, and am taking classes with Jan, the Quilting Queen. My very first lesson was today! It's lots of fun and challenging. The best part about quilting is having a cozy blanket to cuddle up to when all the work is done!

As Time Goes By


The most difficult part of building our new home is waiting for completion. The December finish date slipped to February. Now the projection is the end of April (Don't bet the farm!). To while away the time, we're acclimating to the new area, getting our new doctors lined up and spending time with daughter Lisa and grandson Danny. One of our recent activities was the creation of glazed pottery pieces, proudly displayed by the artists~ David and me!

A Fond Fish Farewell


With the help of our friends from Aquatic Life in Stuart, we elected to adopt out our water babies. The decision to take a break from the five year hobby was twofold: the delay in our house closing to the end of March and the difficulty in moving three tanks. We know that in Aquatic Life's hands, our fish will be well taken care of. And the tanks and equipment will be donated to the local schools. We'll be visiting Aquatic Life for a final goodbye before we leave on December 21.
