Awesome Customer Service

I always love to support "Mom and Pop" business where I can especially since I am starting a small business myself. I wanted to order some Tim Holtz die cutz and I decided to order them from Blue Moon Scrapbooking.  I ordered on the 16th and received it on the 19th. The service was so fast and prompt and I always love when I get a handwritten thank you on my receipt! Now I am not sure if they are a "Mom and Pop" but they sure operate like one! Friendly, helpful personalized service! Very refreshing in this corporate age. They also have a blog which you can visit HERE, and they have lots of videos demonstrating various products. So, you need to go check them out and if you need to order something they carry- get it from them- you will not be disappointed!

P.S. They did not give me any free stuff or pay me to say this! LOL!
Until Next Time- 

Cute Birdie Christmas Ornaments

I am not one that gets sick often but on the first week of Willow's school career she brought home a nasty funk that had me sick as a dog for about 2 weeks. I was well for a couple of days then BAM! It is here again, although, not as bad as the first time. Needless to say I have not been in the studio for a bit. Tonight I am making cute little birdcage ornaments in all different colors and bling! Here are a couple of pics.

Until next time-

Another Killer Sky and a Snail Rangler

At about 7:45 this evening the kids were in bed and my husband and I were talking in the kitchen. I saw this awesome pinky, yellow glow coming from outside. I went to take a peek and the sky was so freaking awesome that I ran to get my camera and take some pictures. (I love taking pics of the sky if you don't already know! LOL) While I was out there my 3 year old, Wren, came out and started to line up all the snails. I let her do it before making her go back to bed because she is a total snail lover and she looked so dang cute! Here are the pics I took.

A close up of the clouds.

You can see the snail rangler's thumb!

Wren- my little snail wrangler

She has lips that women pay a lot of $ for!! LOL

Until next time- keep your eyes open- there is beauty everywhere!

Sunday Blog Hoppin'

I haven't done a blog hop in a long time so I figured Sunday would be a great day. I can play with the kids, hop, make lunch, hop- you get it right?! LOL Why don't you hop along with me!




Hope to see you around!

No Rain, No Rainbows

One of my favorite sayings is, "No rain, no rainbows", meaning that life isn't always full of gumdrops, unicorns, and glitter. Well, it is full of all these things but with a nice dose of crap in between. I think these "crappy" times are totally necessary. They give us perspective and gratitude. I've seen 2 rainbows in the last 2 days and I had to capture them best I could on film. Also caught some snails having fun after the rain!

Until next time remember- No rain, No rainbows!

A Fungus Amungus!!

Yesterday as I was looking into the yard I saw what appeared to be a crescent moon shape. As I approached I realized it was a grouping of mushrooms. How curious! Had to take pics!

Crescent moon shape, curiouser and curiouser!

This looks like a sun to me.

Until next time campers, don't eat strange mushrooms!
