Catching Up

I know, I know...I haven't written in forever. This week is Christmas break, and it's the first time I've had in a long time to actually sit down and do this. During December, I felt like I hardly had enough time to breath, let alone blog! But, because I've been gone so long, I thought I'd catch you all up on some of the wonderful things I've been doing.

One awesome thing is that I have had the opportunity to spend a day once a week down in Attica helping my wonderful man work on pianos, cars, and a dozen other projects. One we big project we finished was restoring a reed organ:



I've also been really busy working on sewing projects and Christmas presents, but that will be saved for a later post.

Of course, what has kept me the busiest was Yuletide at Genesee Country Village. It was pretty similar to last year's Yuletide, although not nearly as much snow. To anyone who was able to come, I hope you enjoyed it! And for those who weren't, here are just a few pictures.

My scene, the Town Hall:

The village drummer:



One of the days we made a snowman, Teddy, who was the mini version of  Theodore, because there just wasn't enough snow:



Here a few other random pictures - a lovely friend:


The entire group watching eagerly as I tried a real, live fig:


Waltzing:



And of course, there were the obligatory photo shoots. I love my man with his camera. Really. Only he can make pictures of me look so good!





A new dress!!!
