Hello!

Catching up... been a bit too long since I updated the blog.

Went to Sacramento CA and had a good time teaching store owners from Oregon, Washington and California. It was great to get away, but I really am tired of all the delays that I seem to encounter while traveling....always seem to wonder why it ALWAYS happens to me.

Michael has been doing great driving and we are finding ways to put this to use. Kenzi and him were given some cash, the recycle bags and a partial list of the things we need for groceries and then went grocery shopping for me! loved this, I was not tempted by all the foods and staying on track for my weight loss and I enjoyed a nap while they were gone.

These were just a little part of the magic at our Creative Event at the Bucket and my favorite. I have always wanted to put a logo on a bucket since I started over 3 years ago. Thanks to Words by Marygold we were able to have these adorable buckets. We also played with alot of fun techniques using vinyl masks and items this last weekend. Thanks to all that came and made it such a great 2 days!

As many of our friends and family know we have dealt with of shocking news this last week with our business. They always say imitation is flattery, but in this case it was not. We have always had a unique style and feel to our paper that was unlike any other. While we have been a bit surprised that nobody has used it before now we knew the day may come when someone would develop their own paper collection on our paper stock. However we were surprised at the source it came from and we no longer will be using one of our printing companies. This is a big transition as we convert to a new printer, but are sure that it is a blessing in disguise!

Off to work for the day! Chat sooner next time!
