Morning all,
Man, back to work after a very long weekend.
Had a nice Thanksgiving. My youngest daughter spent her Thanksgiving with her Aunt in Memphis, TN. My son spent his time at his girlfriend's family. Our oldest daughter spent hers with us and my in-laws so it was pretty quiet, but the in-laws cooked up an amazing spread, and then my husband's niece showed up with her little ones and it felt more like a family get together.
Spent the rest of my weekend at beautiful West Baden Springs Hotel, which is right next to the French Lick Hotel and Casino - both of which are in Indiana. http://www.frenchlick.com/hotels/westBaden/
Both Hotels and all of thier connecting properties were decorated for Christmas and it was soooo beautiful. Gigantic Christmas trees everywhere, Christmas scenes everywhere else. Every nook and crany had something to see. Anyone close enough to make a visit should do so, it is well worth the trip.
Spent 2 or 3 hours Saturday stitching on JBW's French Country Squirrel in the hotel rotunda under the big dome just enjoying all of the hubub. The hotel had a group of Dickens Carolers going around singing Christmas Carols to all the visitors so it was very relaxing. The town has an old train that runs the Polar Express, so there were alot of little ones running around in thier PJs.
The next couple of weeks are going to be quite hectic. We have new carpet being installed as well as my daughters College graduation on the 17th and then Christmas is the next weekend. Makes me cringe just thinking about it.
Well if I don't blog again before Christmas, have a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year.
Sounds like a lovely holiday. I can't wait to see how you did your squirrel. Hope in all the hustle you find a lot of stitching time.
