This Post is going to be about three different important moments in my life. First, more thimbles - one from my sister in law Marcia. Marcia is serving a mission right now in Nauvo, and she had forgotten to give me this thimble from Lancaster County in Pennsilvania, the Amish Country. She must have taken it with her to Nauvo.
Second I came across a new book about Susan Boyle. I've so enjoyed reading it and I absolutely love her voice.
And Third I am with Mr Stitches here at the Homestead again, located in Heber City Utah. A beautiful Large Colonial Inn nesseled in the snowcaped mountain. We came up in a snow storm to 8" of snow on the grounds. We have a favorite cottage that we're always lucky to get.
What a treat to be in a mountaintop cottage with Mr. Stitches!
ReplyDeleteI love the Homestead..have stayed there several times..I want to go there for Thanksgiving this year since our kids will all be at their other in laws. I didn't know Susan Boyle had a book out, I have her CD and we love it! I have a friend who lives in Nauvo and works in the temple. So good to hear about you! Have fun! :D
ReplyDeleteCindy I do hope you and Mr. Stitches have a great time in those Utah mountains. No place more beautiful, unless of course, you are in the Idaho mountains.lol
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy that you are enjoying some together time.
hugs
We also love the homestead and it is a great get away! Just snuggle and enjoy each other!
ReplyDeleteps I am sorry to hear the store was broken into.
Actually, I should have been more clear about he thimble. It came from Cantril, Iowa, an amish village about an hour out of Nauvoo. We get to go there on our p-day once in a while and they have some of the best cheese you have ever eaten and their produce prices are yet to be beaten. Sorry I didn't clarify where it came from. Looks like the homestead was a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the note Cindy.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a terrific time!
Love Susan Boyles' voice and story.
amazing!

The snow looks beautiful in Heber City! Hope your cottage is cozy and warm. How did your lunch get-together go?
ReplyDeleteIt's cool that you're collecting thimbles and everyone remembers you when they travel.
Have a good weekend.

Oh I am so jealous that you're at the Homestead. I love that place! Have a great time and let me know when you'll be at Gardner Village and I'll come see you. Mimi
ReplyDeleteCindy,
ReplyDeleteI loved your comment yesterday. I am guilty also of not visiting enough. I had to read through a couple of posts I didn't see. It's only 8AM here but I'm ready to go out to dinner after seeing your VD dinner. Wow, I'm salivating on my laptop! I didn't know you collect thimbles. I have a pretty cute collection going on too. Not as cool as yours. Finally, how romantic to be cuddled into that wonderful bed in the snow covered mountains. Enjoy Cindy! Lisa
Oh fun! Utah is amazing with the snow right now. We live int Utah. I am tired of the snow already, i want to be warm. BUT i appreciate the beauty of the snow a lot...Have fun.
