Nom Nom Nom Balm- Oh how I love it!


So I ordered some Nom Nom Nom Balm from reddhynes on Etsy a week or two ago. It is wonderful! The scent is AWESOME and the texture is just right- you know how you get some that are so greasy and yuck? or even worse the sticky kind? Not hers! Hers are perfect. I find myself using it WAY too often. I ordered the "Oh La La Vanilla Edition" but she has other kinds that I'm sure are just as good!
And beside the awesome lip balm that I'm now addicted to, she has some super cool jewelry as well. They would make EXCELLENT gifts. ---Did you know theres ONLY 85 days till Christmas??---
So go check out reddhynes I promise its worth the visit!

One of my favorites..Trimweaver



I wanted to share one of my  favorite Etsy shops/suppliers. Not only are their products wonderful, but the customer service is unbelievable! I have ordered from them many many times and never had an issue with any order.
 All of the products are top notch. Don't believe me? Just check out all that feed back they have on Etsy (WOW thats alot with out one negative) That  alone should say something.
They have everything ribbons,clips,beads and so much more. Trimweavers has a DIY kit that is WONDERFUL for first timers. My personal favorite is the assorted applique pack  .
They sell a large variety of supplies in their Etsy shop- Trimweaver's Etsy shop 
But they have EVEN MORE in their online shop- Trimweaver
All of their products ship from the US, and they offer wholesale discounts. 
So if you get a chance I highly recommend checking out their site. TRIMWEAVER

Atlanta bound = New stuff!

Thats what my husband is. He's going to Atlanta for training for his new position. Meaning a  whole lonely week without him here. I guess on a positive note, More time to work! So keep your eyes out for a bunch of new designs.
I even pulled out the sewing machine- I figured I would attempt to mess with it. I want to learn to sew SO badly. So if anyone has any input as to where to start, point me in that direction! Ultimately I want to learn how to make skirts and dresses for Jayde. I tried making them once- lets just say it didnt turn out well. HELP!

Brrrrr..... what the heck??

Ok seriously its the second day of fall, end of September here in Florida, and its COLD. Now this is where the northerners will laugh at me. Its in the low 70's and I swear the walk to the bus stop we were shivering. I guess its official my whole family is wimps lol!! Guess its time to buy light jackets, and the kids already have the kind they want picked out. Ethan MUST have skulls.

On a different note (a much busier one). I have like a billion custom orders to do today! 
and a ton of shipping. Alot of hard work, and a ton of creativity is going to be pouring out of my office today. I might just have to turn me some Elton John on and make it a party! :)

Oh and keep an eye out on my blog I will be doing a give away here in a few days...

WOW. where to begin???

I heard the song on the radio and it made me mad. So I went to YouTube for the video, and im speachless its WORSE than the song. my god. the poor kids in the video.

Mid week blah

Well half of my week is gone. Nothing majorly productive got done, no huge accomplishments, just a plain ol week. But atleast the rest of my week looks to be somewhat eventful. Tomorrow- weather permitting me and John are going to the beach for a picnic while the kids are in school (yay big people time!!) and then after the kids get out of school we have open house to go to- which should be interesting with 3 diffrent classes to go to :D But the kids are super excited about it.
Then on Friday I have to go to the doctor- which my no means is exciting but atleast its getting done...
Ah its a shame i didnt have something better to blog about- Im going to go check out Etsy, theres always something fun going on there!

-------NEW STUFF-------

I HAVE NEW STUFF!!! 
Isn't that wonderful? I'm going to be adding tons of new stuff to my Etsy shop all weekend!  
I especially LOVE the cherry set below. I'm half tempted to keep it for Jayde! (and trust me shes eyeing it) Oh and this cherry set is VERY limited.
Oh and earlier today me and John went to carry the garbage cans in and for some reason John bumped the mailbox, and out came a TON of wasps. So his natural response was to poke it with the end of the broom, and RUN. Well apparently wasps can fly faster than he can run. He got stung on the back of his leg. But since its in our mailbox we had to get it out so they wouldnt sting the mailman (or more importantly me lol). So he took the hose and sprayed the nest out of the mail box. And we thought that they were all gone. Boy were we wrong.... I went to get the mail and they went flying EVERYWHERE! Luckily I didn't get stung. Guess well be buying some wasp away or whatever it is!


7 years ago today

Its been 7 years ago today almost down the the minute, thousands of people lost they re lives and the lives of they re loved ones. I remember seeing it on Tv and the feelings of seeing the footage on tv is indescribable. I  remember sitting there holding Chandler (who was only months old then) very tight. Because I had no clue who was going to be targeted next.
Its a moment in time that I dont think I will ever forget. Please remember to take a moment of silents to remember those affected by September 11th 2001.
On a side note I find it kind of upsetting that large websites dont have anything up about Sept 11. Such websites like www.msn.com . 
Also please check out this wonderful treasury on Etsy  HERE

I have organization!

Finally! 
I spent most of the afternoon organizing my clippie sets in alphabetical order. Whew, I'm so glad thats over. I also removed sets that I didnt like how they matched, and I will be relisting them in larger sets at discounted prices. So keep your eyes out.  Well thats all I have time to write right now... I have spaghetti cooking on the stove!

No rain? really?

Well boy Was I wrong about Hannah- It barely rained here. But of course when I me and Lilly had to walk to the bus stop to pick up the kids it rained, luckily not too bad though. Lilly wore a rain coat and I had my wonderful rainbow umbrella which I was loving having it protect me from the rain until Ethan pointed out that it had a lizard on it. (Eeek!) So of course the whole walk home was fun- me trying to knock the lizard off without hurting it.. needless to say I didnt get the lizard off. Not fun.
So were officially on week two of school (going on 4) and the kids love it. Jayde has a best friend that she talks about non stop, and both of the boys love they're teachers. Looks like it going to be a  great school year. yay.

rain,rain and more rain

Well it looks like another hurricane is heading our way. Yesterday the track had it hitting almost exactly on us, but by the 8 am update this morning the track changed some luckily, hopefully it will be the same for the 11 am update. From the sounds of the kids school they already plan on the kids being out on a hurricane day on Friday (ugh I hope not).
We didnt really get it bad from tropical storm Faye, but  we did get alot of rain and the last thing that we need is MORE rain. The ditches on my side of own is still filled with standing water. And alot of areas had much more rain, so the last thing that we need is MORE rain.
