Shhhhh!

This is a top secret post. No important details will be revealed here.
Thursday evening at 6pm Caroline, Emilie, Samantha and I attended the Gala Grand Opening of David's Bridal on Route 18 in New Brunswick.
We were greated at the door with champagne and appetizers. We briefly walked around and then found a consultant to help Caroline try on a limit of two wedding dresses.

We had not planned on Caroline trying on dresses. Actually we had no clue what to expect from the evening.

Caroline took an I-phone video of her first impressions of the event.

We were treated to a fashion show of the 2014 gowns by Melissa Sweet (The actual designer).

And I am just saying.........Caroline will make a gorgeous bride!

JUST SAYIN'

 

Cooking Thyme

Caroline and Diego gave me a cooking class for Christmas. It was something that Caroline and I kept saying we would like to do together. It was a perfect gift!

I got to do something fun with Caroline, I got to cook and try new foods AND I got to take pictures of the whole experience!

We had about 24 people in the class and we made five different winter soups.

 

Caroline consults with the Chef.

The work tables were lowered and they became the formal dining tables.

  

 

Starting with groceries and ending with filling, warm winter soups! The class started at 7pm and we finished tasting at 10pm. We enjoyed meeting all of the different people that came to the class and with whom we sampled the soups. Ohhhh! Let's do it again!

Welcome 2014 !

My One Little Word for this year is EMBRACE. I am going to reach out and embrace all life has to offer. I am going to try to see the best in every situation. I am going to accept imperfections and adjust to them. I am lucky to be alive and able to embrace real life.

I had one of the best New Years Eve nights ever.

 Meet my 91 year old father who is once again being a good sport!

 

 How Funny is he?

 

 MIDNIGHT KISSES!
