Family and Friends

Another fantastic weekend.  Elizabeth came down after work on Friday - we cooked delicious dinner (veal scallopini) and she brought sweets from the Guylian cafe located underneath her work building.

So, we had lovely cakes while watching a movie.

Saturday was packed:  breakfast in town with my girls and John, then Jenni and I went to A Day at the Races for Marko.  Due to the terrible weather we've been having, the horseracing was cancelled and that wasn't a bad thing - we had such a great time with our friends and raised lots of money for Marko.

That night I went to another fundraiser:  this time a trivia night to raise money to help send a young cyclist to the Junior World Championships.  Great night, lots of laughs and our table won.  All up, a top day.

By comparison, yesterday was very quiet:  some washing followed by an afternoon sewing some "Picnic" blocks together and catching up on recorded tv shows.  I've decided to sew the rows together as I go this time rather than wait till all the rows are assembled.  

Very messy sewing room

Think I'll really like this quilt top when it's finished.
