joiner etc hidden in the back room at the store. Gerald was totally
surprised and loved them. He already has quite a few in his "Man Cave"

with tools. I will post some Christmas Fun pictures later today/tomorrow.

Look At These Home Baked Goodies

Mom came out the store Saturday afternoon
to spend the weekend with us. Take a look at all
the home baked goodies she brought with her.
I almost couldn't fit them all on the kitchen
island so I could get a picture.
Dad always loved baking everything he could
get his hands on for Christmas and Mom
continues to do so. Every Christmas dinner
we have my Dad's recipe for poppy seed dinner
rolls and think of Dad as we pass the basket
around the table. We had a great time
Sunday shopping at the Lakewood Antique/
Flea Market Center. I picked up several
vintage ornaments for the tree in the
piano room plus a few Santas for my collection
in the den, a few ornaments for the traditional
tree in the den and my country themed one
in the breakfast room along a few other
Christmas goodies.
We both miss my Dad terribly even more so
during the holidays because my father
absolutely loved Christmas and made it
a very special time of year with lots of
surprises. Spending the
day together shopping, snacking on funnel cakes
and French Vanilla Cappuccinos was just what
we needed :) Our house is full of activity
getting last minute details taken care of
and visiting with friends in and out. I hope
everyone is having as much fun during this last
few days of the Christmas rush. Remember to keep
your cameras handy I have been getting some terrific
candid shots of everyone.

Lots of New Classes, Kits, & Store Info Coming Up Once I Get This New Baby All Loaded

We will be having quite a few posts with January class/kits
pictures, store info and more over the next few days. We have lots
of store info to catch up posting about. Both Patti and Michelle
have been planning/prepping some great classes and kits including
acrylic albums, home decor, mini books, layout classes/kits
and more. I have not
been able to post much the past week or two so since my laptop
decided to have a few tantrums. First it had not 1,2,3,4,5
but so many issues it had to go in for some pc care. Then I
have it back for 1 week and the dc plug in the back went out so
it needs to go back again. Who would have thought a person could
pretty much wear out a laptop in just under 2 years. Actually I
am pretty hard on laptops even taking it on our cruise, weekend trips
and everywhere in the car when we were looking for our new
house so it
has actually been a good one considering how much it was used. I was using one
of Gerald's laptops but it was driving me crazy since it didn't have all
my pics and store info on it. Plus it wasn't set up the way I was used to.
Yesterday Gerald said I should just go and get a new one. Normally I
hate to spend money on myself but I really do use my laptop for
everything for the store so I went ahead and after talking with several
people came home with this.....




I honestly think it is more computer than I need and probably
has tooo many perks (why do you need Blue Ray on a laptop?) I do like
the larger screen, 1080 Full HD picture and built in camera so hopefully
it will be a good choice. I am hoping to play with it more tonight and
get it all set up/figured out and then start posting away with all the
class details, kits and info about our annual after Christmas Sale :)
