I'm only sharing a few photos from my Birthday Trip to WI because my iphoto keeps crashing, among many other applications. I've done all the mac software updates...what's going on?! I am so dependent on this machine - it's made for a very unproductive 2 days....but enough of that...
I made my way to Cedarburg on Saturday driving through torrential rain on 43, but was greeted by the loveliest little town: shops and boutiques, a winery, and All that Pizzazz: I was able to park and load directly in from the back which made things very easy. I hung A LOT of work, filling an entire room. This shop is big and full of such fun, whimsical art. I'll be going back for my reception April 4th from 3-7pm, so please if you live in the area come and see me! If you can't make it they are open 7 days a week so go check out my works and all the other treasures in Carole's shop!
Erica surprised me with this beautiful birthday cake complete with butterflies, swirly candles and my favorite colors blue and green. The kicker was the cake pedestal, it rotated and had blinking lights and a woman singing Happy Birthday in an eerie nostalgic voice! It was a wonderful day and evening with good friends and great food and lots of canines and kitties. I left early on Sunday as a snowstorm was moving in and freezing rain to the south, I made it safely back driving through a crazy amount of rain and home to Rich and the pups for a cozy night at home watching movies. Happy, memorable 42!
"Ann-Erica" we joke that we are a continent, she to the north in Wisconsin and me to the south in Chicago, Milwaukee is our equator. Yes, we are a little silly.
