Finished Trey's Quilt




I found the cutest red, white and blue flannel with a ski theme in Palm Springs last winter, so started the 6th and last quilt for the grandchildren. My sewing 'room' is smaller than most people's so when I need to I go up to the clubhouse.

The Best Christmas Pagent Ever







I went to Gibsons to see the play Suzanne and the girls are in for 8 nights. It had 24 kids and was just fantastic. Suzanne had the lead and Hana was the lead for the kids.

Goodbye to James Canning and Laura


We attended a very nice service for Julie's Dad this morning. He was 86 and had been ailing for the past 6 months. This afternoon we said goodbye to our cousin Laura, a woman who was always filled with love and joy. Rosemary made a lap quilt for her when we heard she was ill in October and her family will give it to hospice in her honour.

Nikki and Bill Open House



One great advantage to staying north this winter is all the fun activities we usually miss. We thoroughly enjoyed the Open House at Nikki's and Bill's Sunday. Some of her grad class I knew from hockey and lacrosse days with the kids. I originally met Nikki at the garbage cans in the back lane in New West when the boys were babies and convinced them to move to Crescent Beach in 1963.
