I think mother nature was playing with us today. It was sunny and warm, so warm you could go with out a winter coat. But we know what she has in store for us. There are more storms lurking and more winter blasts. But for today we will enjoy this reprieve. Thank You Mother Nature 
I told you in the last post that I was going to ladies night. Well it was wonderful the men cooked shrimp appetizers, chicken Marsala, with wild rice, baked squash, and brownie sundays enough to serve the 13 of us with lots left over. mmmmmm Great Job guys and lots and lots of wine. We are a group of women mostly in our 50's so we are on the second chapter of life. Grand children, children finishing up college, etc. We are from all walks of life and have all diffrent kinds of jobs it is a wonderful mix. So it was started a while ago to celebrate the first grand child with a bracelet. Last night I was presented with a beautiful bracelet and a card I will cherrish. Thank you my wonderful friends I love you all. This is not a good picture of the bracelet but it is pink and green with pearls mixed in, custom made especially for me.
Then when I got home I checked the mail box on the way in and I received my box of winnings from Rose. It looks so official the Royal mail.......

Congrats on your bracelet! I love symbolic gifts like that, don't you? Women of our age group are extremely interesting, I think! They have such wisdom--and great humor!

Hi Cathy! We had the same weather here in Idaho, sunny and mild one minute and then violent winds and pelting hail the next. I always think of February as being a tough weather month. What wonderful friends you have and what great treasures you have received! Have a great weekend no matter what kind of weather you have.
Love,
Susan and Bentley
