Week 4

Jan 25: The amaryllis shot up over the weekend.
Jan 26: I made white chocolate macadamia nut bars for the work snack day. They were yummy.
Jan 27: My Christmas package arrived from Elisabeth (she was my German exchange student in 2004/5). She knows what I like - Milka, candles & an adorable shoe-shaped mug for hot spiced wine from her home town.
Jan 28: (Happy birthday to Hannah) One of the first things I do every day when I get home is kick off my shoes and slip into my Clobber Leather Australian sheepskin slippers. Best Slippers Ever!
Jan 29: 5 inches of snow greeted us on Friday morning. I'd be fine with it if I didn't have a busy few days ahead. We got another inch or so during the day.
I did the flowers for my sweet friend Elizabeth's wedding. Friday night after the rehearsal dinner I set to working and roped Amanda and Ginger into helping some too. The reception table centerpieces come together.
The bridesmaids' bouquets.
The bride's bouquet.
Jan 30: The mailman's tracks through the front yard. I was nice and shoveled the sidewalk and porch for him this morning.
I headed up decorating the reception in the restaurant's banquet hall. The bride has excellent taste, I merely put it together with the help of Jen, Christina & Amanda.
The radiant bride & her Marine in shining armor. Congrats, Elizabeth & Joe! Jan 31: The amaryllis has 5 buds threatening to bloom any second.

I didn't realize that it has 5 buds! Very cool. It was fun helping you this weekend!

Alan said usually it has 2 or 4 buds, so I get a bonus!
Thanks for all your help.
