Misc. Stuff & More Cards

We jointly celebrated Peter’s and my birthday on January 11th at our house.  They had an out of town guest staying with them for a few days so Janet came over too.  We had a lot of fun and Janet is a very nice and interesting person.  We had a good dinner and Kaija made a scrumptious dessert (as always).  We talked for a long time and played chicken foot dominos.  We finally got to bed around 12:45.  We are not used to going to bed so fricken late… we were dragging the next day for sure!  But it was worth it getting to spend time with good friends.

We get the most incredible sunsets at our house.  This was taken on January 10th from our front yard.  We have the houses across the street blocking us from the view of the valley , but they have fantastic views from their back yards.  We also get very pretty sunrises… we love it here.

We just bought these 2 big vases for the front yard to match the existing circular planter.  Because of the shading they look like they are different colors, but the set of 3 looks great.  I will put some sort of plants in the vases and re-do the circular with some nice plants.

This is our wet bar area.  The “Wine Cellar” stencil above the door was also at our other house.  Of course I couldn’t leave that behind either, so I remounted it and it looks great.

We just bought these 3 counter stools for the bar area.  Our guests can finally sit at the bar instead of everyone standing around the “party hole”.

We also found this great pub table and 4 tall stools, which is next to the bar area.  It filled up an empty area and is great for entertaining.
