Day 1

This month, I think I will share some of the many unusual finds I have "collected" at the Festival of Trees over the past many years.  The Festival of Trees is a major fundraiser for the Primary Children's Medical Center--and the monies raised generally go to cover patients that otherwise couldn't afford the care there.  This is a top-notch pediatric hospital and services a large portion of the intermountain west.  But the little Festival of Trees is always my favorite way to ease into the holiday season.  Plus it just feels good knowing it supports such a great cause.


So here goes:

The Capitol Building headlined the Gingerbread tables at the Festival of Trees this year.  It was crazy good. You can't really see all the detail from the full shot, but trust me: it was in there!





Oh, and just for those of you who enjoy a little Jane Austen in your celebrations, check out what I found in the local paper this week:


YES!  A delightful husband certainly surprised his wife, Elisa, with his photoshopped face on Mr Darcy's portrait!  Very creative.  What a clever fellow.  And, I suspect, a happy wife!
