A Moment To Catch Up

Oh my! I can't believe I have not posted since May! It has been a very busy summer! We had lots of personal stuff going on including the move of some of my family from Pennsylvania to near me here in Arkansas. I am thankful to now have them just a few blocks away after being thousands of miles away for many years.

Then in June my husband and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. It's hard to believe it's been that long. Time flies when you are married to a great guy who loves you as if you were only just married a few weeks. :) I made my dress for the party from Butterick 4513 using vintage fabric I found on ebay several years ago.

Business has been very busy too. I was thrilled to be asked to be interviewed by a local magazine. The article came out in the August issue and you can read it on line here: @Urban Magazine. The experience was so much fun from start to finish!

I hope you all had a wonderful summer! Now that the weather is started to cool down (thank goodness!), we are turning our thoughts to new items we will have for you just in time for the holidays, including new snood designs, new colors of the bunny snood, and a brand new item. Stay tuned!

Anniversary Day

Today is my and my husband's thirteenth wedding anniversary. It really doesn't seem like it has been that long. James never thinks so either as he jokingly say things like "We've only been married a couple of years, right?" I think that is very sweet! We had a Celtic themed wedding and our wedding bands have the Irish Claddagh on them.
I have wonderful memories of that day but it now that so many years have passed it is also touched with a bit of sadness remembering the loved ones that were there who are no longer with us including both my grandparents, two Aunts, and my boss at the time. They will always be remembered.
We were married on the grounds of the Settler's Inn In Hawley PA. Looking at their website I see it has changed quite a lot in the last thirteen years, but is still beautiful.

Tonight we are going out for dinner at a new sushi restaurant in town. I hope
it's good! Next month when my family comes for a visit we will have a little party with cake and champagne.
