Stop by 5minsformom.com today and put in your comments to enter to win a super cool vaccum!
I know I could use a second vaccum. I would love to have one for upstairs and downstairs, its not that I am lazy it's - I hate lugging the heavy on up the stairs each time I need to use it.

Well, it's a great looking day outside and I think I am going to head out and play with the kids. My friend who moved back to the Pacific NW, gave us there backyard play/swing thing- So the kids have their very own playground.

Better get going on my housework so we can play the day away!
Best of luck in the contest!

Make Over Show

So, I was going through the paper from today or maybe it was yesterday, anyways I like to read the local paper and the 'Yes' section in the Friday paper, I like to think it keeps me up on the happenings around town. Well I came across this article that was announcing a Make Over Contest, where they are picking 2 women from the valley to receive complete make overs worth close to $30,000!!! OK- so I continued to read, and it says you have to be at least 28 years of age and need to lose 10-25 pounds plus. And be very motivated. They would track my progress over 13 weeks or 3 months. So, I thought, I'M IN!!! I would love a total make over, and since I am having a tough time loosing my baby weight from my 15 month old! I thought this would be great! So, I have decided to enter this contest- I will be there with countless other women who feel they are in need for a total make over! I'm motivated- my husband and I joined our local gym the day after Christmas and we have been going 2-3-4 days a week! Here are a few links if you live in the area and would be interested in dedicating 3 months to a total make over- they do say it is not for an extreme make over- you will need to read through everything to get all the details. http://www.arizonaspagirls.com/ and http://www.thebeautyshow.com/
Maybe I'll see you in line!
Good luck to you!

Back on Track...

OK, I've decided to get this going again...I don't seem to be very good at blogging. November and December seem to be a pretty busy time for me. I do want to thank everyone who stopped by my booth at the shows we attended during the holiday season. It was great meeting and talking to the many great customers I was able to work with face to face.
I'm currently working on my 2008 show schedule. Last year I didn't do a lot of shows, but this year, I'm hoping to get involved in a few more around town.

Many of you know I love to scrapbook, and there is a new contest with Creating Keepsakes Magazine- Hall of Fame. I've been picking up new paper and embellishments lately, so I will make some new pages, and when I feel like I have enough to choose from I will make my decision, whether or not I will enter. I just love all the new 'stuff'' I've picked up, now all I need is new ink for my printer! I also received from my husband a new camera for my birthday! So, now I have no excuse but to snap away at my ever growing children!

I hope everyone had a great holiday season! My husband took some vacation days so we had a great time visiting with family and chillin' out around the house. We did so much remodeling this past summer, that it's nice to just sit back and enjoy our house. Maybe next summer we can remodel the upstairs!

Well for the next couple of weeks I will be working on a spring/summer 2008 line! I've been finding some great stones and pearls and I can't wait to get started!

If you haven't picked up the latest Bead Trends magazine Jan/Feb 2008 issue- I have 6 pieces in there!!! Again, it is so exciting to see my creations in print! Wow! Very cool! I will be submitting some new pieces for the May/June issue. Wish me Luck!

I'll right, it feels good to be writing again!
Wishing everyone a Safe, Happy and Healthy New Years Eve 2008!!!
