The Cortland Connection

We've spent two holidays in a row at the in-laws. I think that is a record!

I did some major shopping at my favorite store, Quilter's Fancy and met a new MySpace friend there. Also did some damage at Patcatans.

We holding some gorgeous beaded fringe from France. I bought a little for a Victorian purse I'll be making.

As we were out and about, we saw this telephone pole that has been abused. I wonder if I should start a "save the poles" fund?! We visited Dad at his craft show at Yankee Lake on Sunday before leaving for home. The dogs love to play here and get more than enough attention. Zack found a new friend in Denise or is it the other way around?

Glenn and Denise helped with clean up after the meal. Denise brought two pies for our Thanksgiving dessert pleasure.

Christmas weekend was spent doing more of the same...more shopping, more eating, and more playing. Denise renewed her friendship with Zack.

Keith continued his job of chauffering Cindy to her favorite stores. Cindy spent a lot of time uploading products to her new online store at http://shadesetc.ecrater.com/. We leave today, Sunday morning as I have to stop in Erie at a potential customers and also in Findlay Lake at Beth's to get a candle.

Jan made this for mom. It's on her table in the front hall.

I know this is real chopping writing. I'll edit it if I have time tomorrow, my blogging day. Until then, Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas from Cortland.

I'm adding a Picassa slide show on the blog right of the family.
