What a week. The weekend was a busy one, many errands and going to the Georgia Quilt Show out in Gwinnett County. It was a great show and I got several small items, including a new cutting matt for 30% off and also a really nice pair of Gingher (sp?) scissors for $20!!! Could not pass that one up. Sunday everything that I had planned to do I did not as both DH and I were sick. Probably to much rich food as we went out Saturday night to celebrate DH's birthday which was yesterday. This weekend we are going to our youngest nieces' engagement shower, that is Sat. afternoon and will probably just kill doing anything that day. Here are a couple of pictures of two of the three grand hotels that are still up in the New England area. The one on the left is the Mt. Washington Hotel and the one of the right is the Balsam's Hotel.

Well here it is another week. I am back from our vacation to Vermont last week. What a great time we had. The leaves were just past peak but still really pretty. We left a week ago last Friday, driving up as we had to two dogs with us and DFIL. The drive itself was an easy one, thankfully. We arrived in Vermont on Sat., Oct. 4 around 5ish, after stopping in Norwich, VT at one of my favorite places, The Baker's Store http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/landing.jsp?go=Home. The weather up there was just right, not to cold and not to hot. We did alot of driving around sight seeing and enjoying being away from Atlanta. Upon returning home I had lots of quilty things waiting for me. I had a block from one of my swap groups and 5 international siggies from another group that I am doing. I need to get pictures up of all of them and our vacation. Here is one though of me and the boys. Also here a picture of a Belted Galloway Cow. Love these cows and they cant be found except in New England.
