Selling Blog

Ok, so I have been putting alot of thought into this....I am thinking about starting a "SellingBlog" of my own. I have seen alot of amazing primitive selling blogs out there and they look great! And what a great way to still be able to sell some of my goodies free of charge. Money has been so bad around here lately and I have been very down. So I am trying to turn over a new leaf and really focus on my prim crafting. So be on the look out for my new selling blog, soon to come. I first need to think of a name. :) Hope to share more with you all real soon! Have a wonderful day!

How was your 4th???

Good morning! I hope you all had a nice 4th of July. We had our annual 4th of July craft show yesterday. Didn't go so well. I just wish I knew if it is the economy or if there just aren't enough "PRIM" lovers out there. Where do all of the prim lovers live? I need to move there! :) But as usual, my dad and I had alot of fun visiting. And I took my boys again, they made really cute magnets to sell. And they did rather well, almost sold out. I LOVE to see the excitement in their faces when someone comes up to purchase from them, so cute. I am trying to teach them the business world early. They already know what they are making for the winter shows. :) After the show we came back to my house with my parents and had a cookout and just sat and relaxed. So now today I am marking all of our leftover items so I can take them over to the antique mall and put them in our booth. At least that is still going good. I am really excited to get started for the Fall shows, I have LOTS of ideas. :) Well that is all for now, I will be back soon. Have a wonderful day!!

Happy 4th of July to ALL!

I hope you all have a wonderful and safe 4th of July weekend! I will be doing a craft show tomorrow, I am so excited. I love doing shows! I am bringing the boys along with me to let them try and sell some of their creations. I am trying to start them young, hehe! I will post pictures of the show this weekend so you can all see all of the wonderful things my dad and i have gotten accomplished. Again, have a great weekend!

Wow, it has been TOO long!

Morning everyone out there in blog land! I have been MIA for quite some time haven't I? I have been so busy here lately. But there is no good excuse for not blogging. I love to blog, and I have still been reading up on all of my favorite blogs, I just have been too lazy to blog myself. :) Sorry! But I do have a couple of things to blog about today. First one, my little Jude is not little anymore, he is 13 today!!!! Well he is still little, hehe, but he is officially a teenager now. I am so sad....where did the time go????? Well he is not going to be very happy with me, but here he is just a few minutes ago, still sleeping! :)

And the next thing to show and tell is Aidan! He has a pretty blue cast on his foot. :) The last day of school he had hurt it on the monkey bars. I took him in for xrays, they said everything was ok but to come back in a week if it was still swollen. Well, it was. So they did more xrays, found a hairline fracture across the top of his foot and then sent us to an orthopedic doctor. Well they told us he would be in a cast for 6 weeks, poor thing....most of his summer vacation! Well yesterday was his 1 week checkup for another xray, and the doctor said he has NEVER seen a bone heal as fast as his has! I have a special boy he said. :) Well I already knew that, right? hehe! Well good news, he can get his cast off in 3 weeks now! He was so excited when he heard that! So we are planning our trip to the water park and the zoo sooner that we thought! But I am so happy, I would hate to see a little guy his age not be able to get in the water all summer!

My trip to Myrtle Beach!

Ok, I am home safe and sound from my trip to the beach! It was so pretty there! My first trip to an ocean, and I want to take my boys back to see it! I am going to share some pictures with you all, I hope you enjoy them. Our condo we stayed in was gorgeous, and HUGE! It was 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, a kitchen, family room, diningroom and like a sitting area. And we were on the TOP FLOOR! Such a perfect view. I had alot of fun, but I am glad to be home with my husband and boys. It was a really nice get-away for my daughter to be able to share with me too. We had ALOT of laughs! :)

Isn't this the most beautiful thing? The ocean was just so gorgeous to see!

Here is my niece Kate, sun bathing...hehe! So cute!


And here is her twin sister Carley, doing the same thing. :) They were looking at my daughter and doing what she was. They had so much fun!

Here they are all wet from running into the ocean with us!

This is me and my daughter, J'Lynn. It was so windy there, can you tell? Hehe. This was taking about an hour after we arrived to our destination.

Ok, is this some kind of jellyfish? It has to be, right? It was so big, and soooo cool! We wanted to touch it so bad. :) But we were afraid, hehe! There were about 4 of them washed up onto the shore.

Myrtle Beach....here I come!

Good morning everyone! It is just beautiful here again in Illinois. But I bet it is not as nice as Myrtle Beach, South Carolina! :) We leave in the morning around 10. I am so excited but yet so sad. I am going to miss my boys badly! Aidan, my 7 year old, keeps telling me he does not want me to go. And that breaks my heart everytime! I keep telling myself that they will be in school and won't even have time to miss me. :) I know it is going to be a very teary departure, but I need this vacation in a BAD way! hehe! I will try and post while I am away and add some pictures. I am planning on taking ALOT! I hope you all have a nice week!

Redecorating my bathroom!

Hello, I am so excited that I have been redecorating my bathroom. It needed a new paint job so bad, and I finally just did it! I found a mistinted color of paint at Walmart for $3.93. What a deal! The pictures I have taken really aren't that good, but I just thought that I would let you see what I have gotten done so far. Remember, I am still in the process of decorating it...there is still lots more wall space to cover. :) I just have to find the "right" stuff, you know?
