Tour of Homes

Well, I haven't posted in a long time, and I'm sure nobody has really noticed, but for anybody that cares to know why, it's because I spent 3 weeks solid helping my sister prepare her house to be on the annual Tour of Homes. Here are some pictures of the finished product. Since I'm not normally a creative person, I was just the "support personnel". That's just a fancy way of saying I was there to move things, climb ladders, paint, hang garland and rope lights, etc. My sister collects snowmen, and had a contest to see who could guess the # of snowmen in her house. The prize was a dozen fresh homemade cinnamon rolls for Christmas. Since she had a little restaraunt here in Union for awhile and served fresh homemade bread and desserts daily, her cinnamon rolls are well known. The actual number was 270, and somebody guess 275. When it was all finished, I have to say it was BEAUTIFUL. We had about 150-175 people come through. They also toured the cottage which houses her Bed & Breakfast as well as her "office" for doing massage therapy. Her house will definitely put you in the Holiday Spirit if you weren't already. I commend her on her creative talent...she really has a special gift when it comes to decorating. You'll have to pardon the multiple posts...lots of space to cover and I'll just go room by room.
