Heart and Soul

"Heart and Soul" necklace. Custom order.

We've been blessed with some sunshine the last couple days. There are still some rain showers here and there though, and even snow flakes yesterday morning! Spring has not arrived to the Pacific Northwest yet. Still waiting.......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOBY!!!!!

Happy Friday! My frustrating email problem has been solved somewhat but I'm still not able to send a group email. Still working on that problem.

Today is my oldest son's birthday and I just want to say HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY TOBY!!! I LOVE YOU! I hope you have a super day.

Our entire family got together at a favorite restaurant for Toby's birthday last Sunday. There were a bunch of us all together to help celebrate. It was really fun to have all of us together. Doesn't happen often enough anymore.

And I hope all of you have a super weekend!

More new stuff added to my Etsy shop today....

 



Winter continues......

 Small "Loosie Goosie" sets in my Etsy store.

Baby, it's COLD outside! I rushed around this morning getting all my errands done for Norm's Place as soon as I could and then beat feet to get back home before the snow flies. We are suppose to get some noticable accumulation over the next couple days. So I guess I'll hunker down, put some more wood on the fire and go make some more beads....

Thank you Veterans!

Thank you to all the men and women that have served in the past and are now serving our country! I pray for you, I cry for you and I raise my glass to you and your families!
It's been a productive week for me. I made several new pieces that I will be adding to my Etsy store as soon as possible. Hope you like them....
I'm off to Norm's Place to meet some friends for dinner. Did I tell you we are having Karaoke this Saturday and Sunday, (Nov. 13 & 14)? We're gonna have a blast!

Soggy Memorial Day

Thanks to all those brave men and women out there serving our country now and thanks to all that have served in the past. We owe you so much.


Memorial Day weekend is almost over. Our weather made it rather difficult for outdoor activities but we did manage to play golf with some friends yesterday. Not exactly brilliantly sunny but we finished before getting drenced. The outdoor barbeque we had planned for after our golf round turned into an indoor feast. Oh well, it wasn't too bad and Norm managed to nearly finish the small deck in the front of our house today even with the wind and rain pouring down on him. He is such a focused man at times.... I feel bad that he had three days off and it rained all three days. Poor guy.

I also got a bunch of beads made and I'm making quite a bit of progress on that summer show inventory. The photo above shows some bracelets in various stages of completion. Just waiting on components.
