it's been a while.....

Merry Christmas everyone!!! 
I know it's been a while but these last few weeks have been nuts and it had nothing to do with the holiday (that was easy). Between Stella's skiing and school schedule, being super-crazy busy at work before the holidays and Troy working his booty off we've been enjoying the quiet, relaxing time in the evenings to their full extent. But on to the fun stuff.....Christmas. This year for the first time since I can remember we switched things up a little and started some new family traditions. My parents came up to Breck on Monday afternoon. Mom and I got to cooking and dad went for a walk with the doggies while Troy made his way home from work. We had our traditional family Christmas Eve dinner with dad's famous potato salad, mom's smoked turkey, salmon and chicken schnitzel and of course one of my moms fantastic deserts. To say we were stuffed was an understatement! 

Stella with a big grin before all the gifts...it just got bigger once she started opening up all of them! She must have been REALLY good this year.....   ;)

 First Christmas in 24 years without Tommy! Super sad and we were super missing him but we'll see him soon! Love you Tommy!!! 

Stella and her new AWESOME blanket from Babi!  

Guess who is going to be SUPER fast in this year's beer league?!? THIS GUY!!!  

Mom got a new kitchen from Santa (dad)!!!! Woo hoo!!!  

Among all the things Stella got this year, she got a new pair of free-ski skis! They are beautiful. It's one thing to have a quiver of racing skis (which she does) but it's another to have a super fun all-mountain, ripping-around pair of skis. 
Whew! What a great time! Hoping everyone had as wonderful of Christmas as we did! 

So Much LOVE and GRATITUDE!!!!

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

vegas....

 This week has been INSANE! We are in the process of getting ready for one of our largest shows in Vegas that the boys leave for on Saturday. It's one of two shows that we do where we get to put our best foot forward and amaze all the buyers for all the boutiques that we sell to. So we have to get it right. With all the new samples that we have been getting from Peru, having to choose a new line has been tough, too many amazing choices to choose from!  Scary, but this is an alpaca sweater that we produced in the 80's and I just happend upon it while digging around in the warehouse the other day. Trust me we've had a HUGE evolution in our sweaters since then! Still fun to see!  Our new line of cottons. We've got two racks that we are sifting through to find the top 30!  On another note, check out Stella and my dad at the top of Hood with some of the CU kids. She sounds like she's having a blast! Missing her a bunch but we get to see her on Saturday. ...
