Anniversary!

Yesterday was our 28th wedding anniversary. We decided to wait and celebrate today because we wanted to do the Sunday brunch at the Gaylord at the National Harbor. We live across the river from it on the Virginia side. It takes us all of 10 minutes to drive across the bridge to get there. The other cool thing is they have opened the new Ferris wheel. It's big, holds a little over 300 people, and has air conditioned booths to sit in. So, here are the pictures from our day.

We had lunch at the Pienza in the atrium

There is a gift shop in the Gaylord that sells glassware, Pandora, and Swarovski. A few years ago Sam got me a little black crystal cat. Today he got me this little fellow. He is just adorable. Now that we stuffed ourselves silly at the buffet, I am going to plop myself down and do a little stitching.

Thanks for stopping by.

Look at those foxy little faces. They are so cute! I'm on to the next part The Snowgirl's Cottage. Only three more to go and it's done.

Pattern 5 done

First off I would like to thank everyone for their kind comments on Red. She's in the framing room and In Stitches. I get to visit her on Stitch Night. They have her pinned and she looks fabulous. Can't wait until the framing is complete.

Moving right along on Frosty Forest. I thought I was almost caught up but the next part came out so I still have two more to stitch before I'm caught up.


I have almost three quarters of the border done for the next square.
