happy belated thanksgiving! this year thanksgiving was sandwiched between two christmas shows... as well as trying to have enough product prepared..my studio had to be packed up(did i tell you my studio is my dining room!) and the house de-cluttered and cleaned!!
on thanksgiving day - we had the joy of 10 adults, 1 teenager, 1 child, 1 baby, two dogs, and 1 roasting turkey in 500 square feet of space!! i love having my family around - we ate, yakked, played, and ate some more...
and then friday morning...we enlisted the help of my family to some mad sewing. jayme - aka trashbaggs had her first show - and we had just not been able to stockpile as much as we thought we needed. we couldn't have been ready without them! thank you family!!
friday was also my brother-in-laws 40th birthday. we went for some disco bowling!, chinese supper - number 9 restaurant, and then ice skating at the richmond oval.
it is the long track speed-skating venue for the 2010 olympics. we were all stoked to get to be where the action would be in february!!
what a weekend!

a few pics from the dunbar community centre craft show....for trashbaggs!
jayme!! i love this picture! just before the doors opened...
hopeful. excited. a bit shy!
giving the staff (her aunt!) instructions on how its done!!
sold out. frazzled. done!!
hard to believe we packed all that in -- but it was fun and I'm proud to be a trashbaggs alumnus.
