Some Pictures To Enjoy

April 25th, 2008

Good Morning All,

Well, it is going to be yet another beautiful day in Vermont today! Of course it is supposed to turn cold this weekend. But I have to say, I don’t mind the break. I’d like to see a little spring weather before summer arrives to fast!

On the store front - We have lots of great new Hero Art stamps I just put out last week. Also we just got in a bunch of new brads and eyelets from the Eyelet Outlet! Some of them are pretty cute! We’ve added a bunch of new candies in the candy store. If you can, be sure to check those out!

On the family front - all is well. My sister in law and nephews came for a visit for a few days. We all had a great time. Morgan really enjoyed playing with her cousins. We played a game of spongebob monopoly and I won! It was fun!

Well, I better get back to work, Here is a great collage of pictures of our family taken just recently!

A Good Day For A Drive!

April 22nd, 2008

I am just loving the weather we are having!! I’ve been able to wear shorts 5 days in a row!! Love it! I went on a big adventure this morning. Brad, myself and my sister in law Pam got up at 4:30am this morning and drove to Chicopee, MA to pick up 3 Uhaul trucks. We went there and back and actually got back by 2pm today! Needless to say we are pooped. But it was nice to drive and have quiet time.

We’ve gotten more responses to our retreat survey! I hope to start planning the retreat in May! Stay tuned!

Well, I just wanted to check in. I hope everyone is getting out to enjoy this great weather! Talk to you soon!

Welcome To The Launch Of My Blog!

April 17th, 2008

Hello,

I just sent out a mass email today letting everyone know that I now have a blog! This blog thing is kind of a crazy phenominon (I’m warning you now, I’m a bad speller!) going on these days! So I figured, heck, why not! I like techy stuff like this. So here I am.

What’s new? Well we started Morgan on potty training day before yesterday. She was excited about using her new potty so that helped things the first day. Now that the excitement has passed, she gets friendly reminders now and then as the training continues. All in all, potty training is going well!!

We are getting surveys back on our retreat idea. There appears to be enough interest to go ahead with the plans to have a retreat in November. I hope to hear from more people through the survey and then sit down with the inn in May to do further planning and come up with a great weekend agenda!! I will keep you all posted!

Well, I better get back to work! Enjoy the beautiful day outside! It’s going to be a warm one!!

I hope to be able to post at least a couple times a week. I guess the first very important thing I want to say is “Welcome!” I hope you enjoy reading my babbles on my blog! :)
