Sharing a new Listing

What a crazy week I have had! My Mom turned 75 this week and my sister and I took her on a little getaway! I returned home long enough to pack and go visit my youngest daughter in Belton. We had a great time. I helped her paint her bedroom and then the next day we had a great day of shopping and pedicures! I came home to everyone here sick but little Nathan. Hopefully the two of us will stay well! Everyone seems to be doing a bit better but Al is still a little under the weather!

Here is my newest listing and you can find it here.

Andrew did a lot of the Photographs for the modeling shoot! He is getting great with the camera!

I finally have two new listings on Ebay. It seems like it has been forever since I listed. Make sure to check out all theChicks listing for our Retro launch.

Weekend Getaway and Hello Kitty

I thought I would share a sneak Peek on what I will be listing for theChicks upcoming Retro launch Everyone has some awesome designs going on! I know Abi is super excited about this new set!

Now For my weekend getaway!

Al And I were able to take a mini Vacation this weekend in Dallas we stayed at the Adolphus Hotel. Here is the view from our room. Usually visiting the "Big" city is not my idea of vacation. I am more of a cabin in the woods kind of girl. We stayed inside the city all weekend walking almost everywhere we went and it was the most enjoyable weekend

We had planned on visiting the Art museum and were pleased to find out there was an Art Festival in progress. We saw some really intresting "Car Art"

I thought the quote on the Autographed taxi was blog worthy!

We watched a cooking demonstration and had some TDF Chocolate Caramel Banana Foster prepared by a chef from The Grape Bistro
You might want to check out the website, he is supposed to add the recipe!

We had a wonderful Time visiting the Dallas Art Museum and just "Relaxing" a few more pics!

I will have to call this a "Zen" room. When you sat and on the benches and looked through the cutaway shown below it was so relaxing!

Abi wanted to know how they got up there!

I just thought this statue was lovely!

Thanks for stopping by!

Weekends!

We visited Longview's Alley fest this weekend. Not to impressive.

Al ran the 5k and placed 4th in his age division, not bad for someone who did not train! We Listened to a blues singer "can't remember her name" and she is not listed on the events calender, ate some dinner with Friends and then...

I was treated with this "ACDC" knock off group, HMM.. not really my cup of tea but I did have a blast watching all the old people Bopping to the Beat! I hope a few of them had designated drivers!LOL

We also saw this band which was a little easier

on the ears! it was just nice to enjoy an evening out!

Here is a rare sighting of "ME" and my "HOTTIE HUBBY"

with the grand kids yesterday! Being a Mimi and pop is awesome!

Aren't they adorable. Not sure if you can tell in the photo but
Mom gave Abi a haircut, what started out as a trim ended up

a little shorter! it is adorable!

I am off to chain myself to my sewing table so I can finish customs.

I have the cutest fabric just waiting for me to sew! Customers First!

Busy Week

I wanted to share a couple of pictures of my new flooring! Here is the carpet we replaced. The prior owners did not take very good care of the carpet.
We added Laminate to the Front room and I love how cozy it feels.

Now just need to pick out a new rug,I think an oval shape perhaps.

Al insisted on carpet in the Den so he would have somewhere to wrestle the grand kids! The warm brown tone feels so relaxing, I am loving it!

Here is a peek at what I am working on for Adagio Blue Sis Bloom Celebration.

I am Loving the Tropical Colors. Abi's Blue eyes will really stand out in this set.

So Much Cuter
