Weekend at Nicks....

We were off to Troy to visit with dear friends and do a bit of damage in the local stores, which abound.  Having not lived in that area for over 30 years!!!!   Mary had me lost immediately.  What changes have occurred to the sleepy farm roads that crisscrossed the area when we lived in Washington  near by.

My goal was to see if I could find another dress for the wedding, a bit more festive than the tailored one I have here.  And right off the bat, or rack, I found one at Nordstrom's.  Aqua, lace, coat and sheath, with some sparkles....not really me at all but it looks nice per the women's consensus.  With the coat off it is more contemporary but I'll wait a while into the reception to do that due to not so perfect arms!!  George doesn't like it at all!   I cut the hem for a sample (because of course I must hem it) and there's no going back now.  Today I'm off to find some silver shoes and earrings.

No photo, wait for the whole outfit done right!!!

And wine glasses......with turquoise swirls...lovely. 

We laughed a lot, ate a lot, played cards a lot and had fun as always.  Wish we lived closer!!
