Merry Christmas

Wow, it really has been a long time since I have posted. Sorry bout that! I have a bunch of really great pictures from Thanksgiving, but that is sooo in the past now. So I thought I would show you all some of the pictures from our trip to Philadelphia to see Marcy and Chris. They are in the process of relocating the Cafe to another retail space about 2 blocks from where they are now. Bob and I thought we would go see if we could help some. Bob did a lot of sheet rocking, mudding and sanding. I tried, well let's just say that is not in my comfort range. Instead I worked on some projects that Marcy just hasn't had time to do. I made some drapes for her guest room, a table runner for her dining room table, and a tree skirt for her christmas tree. We also got to help decorate her tree. It was fun, and so nice to spend some time with them.

These first 3 pictures are from a place called Longwood Gardens. It is an Estate that is owned by Du Pont. They decorate it all up for Christmas with lots and lots of lights. The Conservatory was wonderful! All of the Christmas flowers, and decorations were neat. I took lots of flower pictures (surprise, surprise) and not a whole lot of people. Got to stop doing that!

Anyway here is one of Marcy. They had so many different kinds of poinsettas. This picture doesn't give these any justice. They were huge!

This pool would normally be a water lily pond, but for Christmas they made it into a Cranberry Bog. The tree at the end is covered with yellow poinsettas.

Instead of having live entertainment on the last night we were there they had Karaoke night. It was a blast to watch. And the best (of course) were Marcy and Chris!

I wish I could remember what song they were singing. I sure that would explain this picture. But I love it anyway.
