I promised to expand on some of the events mentioned in my last post.

In February, I was knitting along on my Easy Mosaic socks when I (well, Mr. Aitch agreed) decided to host a family reunion AND anniversary party for us. We married in 1974 and wanted to celebrate the occasion with family and friends. I had four months to get it all organized, which (for someone who never planned much of anything involving more than two handfuls of people) got me into a slight panic.

The brass light fixtures over the breakfast table and island needed updating. Plus I wanted to get new carpeting throughout the house but first wanted to stain the stair treads on each side of the carpeting a darker color.

The new light for over the table was ordered. Mr. Aitch and I installed it in mid-March.

The light fixture over the island was installed in June. I forgot to take a before picture but it was just like the one over the table. I am not an electrician, however, we got both lights up and running without issues other than locating the correct breaker to turn the power off.

We celebrated Pi Day 3.14 with Turkey Pot Pies and an Apple Pie. The turkey was part of our Thanksgiving leftovers which I froze for this very day.

Up next is April.

Have a great weekend!
