Memorial Day Weekend.....

Fun filled packed long weekend....I love those! This weekend was no different, with an extra day because of Memorial Day. We started off with a Friday boot fit (yes, those are a family event and are considered a good time) and the fun just continued from there!

New boots, new fit. Thanks Diana and Harb!!!

Saturday, first day in the new boots. A semi-smile, not bad......smile through the pain.

Saturday afternoon, a nose piercing! OUCH!

Sunday fun-day! We made the trip up to Lyons to see my parents for my dad's 65th birthday party! Lots of food, great people, good beer, a little sunshine, some rain, and one awesome party!!

A little extra suprise came from mom and dad to Stella. Since she is going to be in South Africa for her birthday this summer they gave her an early present. A new speed suite. Talk about one happy girl that is going to be rocking this bad boy all summer!!

Beer and a fire pit! Does it get any better? Not feeling so great his morning, may have had a little too much beer!! HA!!

Last but not least, the reason we have an extra day this weekend. It's Memorial Day and today we honor all those that served this great country. Freedom is not free and so many people have sacrificed for that freedom. So to those people I say THANK YOU!

With love and gratitude to all service men and women out there!

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! :)

break #1....

Six weeks.....that's how long she has to have this thing on. It didn't happen playing pond hockey, it didn't happen skiing, it happen tripping down the sidewalk. I mean....REALLY!?!?! Much Love!

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. ...
