Lacey Community Market

It has been awhile since I have been in this blog.  Both our son's have graduated from High School and both are Eagle Scouts!  Woo-Hoo!  Couldn't be happier.  So...we now have some free time to have some fun.  I am planning a trip to Poland this fall.  I am chaperoning students from this area and so fundraising is huge.  Our Association that this trip is afiliated with, have been selling items at the Lacey Community Market the last month and is gearing up for two more:August 11th and September 11th.  I will be selling my jewelry with a Polish twist and Randy will be selling his candle holders.  Come see what else you might like to purchase when you are in the area.

SNOWMA-GET-AN in Olympia Washington

Amazing how much snow fell on us in just a short time AND the freezing rain.  We lost power for three days and 20 hours.  During that time, our sons took the effort of engaging in conversations that didn't rely on cell phones or facebook. Funny how that works.  We played uno by candle-light and we finished statements like, "If I were a ________ what would you be?" (fruit, country, book, etc) My husband and I are truly blessed with what we have and are grateful to the friends that helped us through this challenging experience.  Here are some of the pictures I took during that time.

Happy New Year

To our family to yours we hope you have a warm and safe 2012.  It is amazing how the time has gone by.  The holidays were filled with friends and family and of course, creating beautiful tables and jewelry.  Randy was able to finish a table for a friend of ours while I was busy creating pendants for friends and family.  We even got a chance to sell some of our wares with Blue Heron Candle Company over our Winter break.  We made enough to replace our depleated supplies of materials to keep us going for awhile.  We are hopeful for this year to be a blessed year.
