We got a big dump of snow last night and today....we didn't let it stop many of our plans though. I didn't make it to the party I was planning to go to - but then luckily that was postponed so I haven't missed it!
I didn't go to the showing of the Oscar shorts at the Princess Theatre...there is always tomorrow...
Laurence's girlfriend came over for the day though and Susannah and I headed into town to go and see her friend Jacobs first art show!
Jacob has been taking oil painting lessons from a man at the Seniors Home where his Dad works. This weekend they had their art show. Wow - beautiful artwork! So many different styles and topics, but all so well done!
After we had seen the art show, Jacobs Dad offered to show us around the entire building. Wow I was stunned at how nice it is in there - and so HUGE!! It is gorgeous and I would be more than happy to go and live somewhere like then when I'm older! There was a lady in the chapel doing manicures for $1!!! They have an arts and crafts room, theatre in the auditorium - they even have their own bar!! A hair salon!! Little store! Games room. A dining room that they can book so they can have private dinners with their family when they visit!! The main dining room was also amazing and the tables were laid really nicely!! I was so impressed! The new big area with the huge fireplace was gorgeous and there are animals all over the place - even a pigeon in a cage who was so gorgeous!
Susannah and I grabbed a few groceries - fresh vegetables,
and some baking ingredients and then we took a drive to take some pictures, before heading home!
This evening was spent watching Cars 2, baking, eating the amazing pulled pork that I had in the crockpot all day, with buns and steak cut fries, and relaxing/ pottering/ editing pictures....
Oh and planning the upcoming week....it was going to be a very quiet week, but today several invitations popped up, so I'm really looking forward to the week ahead!!
