Well first of all, she said yes. Chad and Jolene will be getting married, I am not sure of a date yet.

 St. Pat's was a busy day. And I have met a Bag Piper who is wonderful. He is going to try and find me the pattern for his family tartans so I can copy them. His family has two (due to marraige), one is a red, white and blue (my favorite) and the other is a green, blue and gold.

I finished up the wedding gown I contracted. If I get permission from the owner I will post pictures. It is beautiful, and I am not just saying that because I made it. It really is pretty. She had perfect measurements and it fits her like a glove. That is always a worry when contract sewing out of the area.

Spring is trying to arrive here but we still get snow. We had snow this a.m. but by afternoon it was almost 50 and just beautiful. My yard still has lots of snow drifts but they are getting smaller. The ground is still frozen quite solid in the garden but up by the house my tulips are up.

I am trying to find a few more chicks. I only want Buff Orpingtons or Domoniques and I am having a time finding them locally. I may order the eggs and hatch them out. I had poor luck with that before but I am willing to try again.

Well hubby is home, so I guess I better go serve up dinner. He worked late today, so I don't want him to wait for me.
