Projects!


This is a hat I made for the Women's Association Luncheon Hat Auction. They'll be worn at the Run for the Roses most likely. I made several other that night also.


This is my current project. Little peg hooks. I'm always trying to figure out how to get more storage in my house. I think these will help a lot.


My new dishes!


I made this to hold my necklaces.



My new kitchen island!


Easter table!


The new cabinet my daddy and I built (he really built this).

New York, New York



So, my much awaited trip to New York has come and gone.

I had a BLAST! Becky and I did almost every touristy attraction available. We got on the Long Island Railroad every morning between 8:30 and 9:30 and relaxed during the hour and a half ride in.
There's more than this, but really. This is probably too much information already. :)

Then we visited all kinds of different places depending on the day.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art...


The Beach at Fire Island...

Sunset in Long Island

The Famous Arch...


Madame Tussaud's...




Circle Line Cruise...

We went to brunch at Thalia before going to see Guys and Dolls with Lauren Graham!

We went to Times Square during the day and at night...




We ate all kinds of dfferent foods...
