Christmas in PA
(Below) Opening the 2nd Annual cookbook created by Christie and me...
There was a little pirate in our midst...
Aunt Liz (from NC) was part of the festivities! (here she is showing off a handmade scarf from Christie's mom - beautiful!)
Eric showing off his daughter's new toy... lookin' good!
More handmade goodies from June at Noon... these are amazing, and recycled from old magazines!!
A beautiful purse made (for me) by Christie's mom. I can't wait to start using it!
A hand-carved stamp made by June at Noon for our geocaching/letterboxing adventures! She made one for Christie and both of Christie's parents and they are amazing. I am going to use mine for geocaching and in my letter-writing... it's just that cool!
A lovely quilt made for Christie by her mom (from fabric that Christie picked out during her stay in Washington state with AmeriCorps). :)
And we were surrounded by loved ones in spirit and reminded that love never dies.
This is Christie's Aunt Eunie - a self portrait taken when she was a twenty-something in the '70s, I believe, while a student in Rochester - who passed away earlier this year. She beautifully lives on in Christie and the rest of her family. I wrote about our trip to Cuba Lake in July - when I got to meet Eunie - here.
