A Hold On Orders

I really hate to disappoint anyone, but I have decided not to take any orders until May. It seems that life has been very busy for me lately and I am just not enjoying my flower jewelry crafts right now.
I am planning on having a booth at the Bobby Ray Craft Fair in May. School will be out at the end of May, so I thought that would be a good time for me to start back. I love to do this when I have time, so picking it back up then will be good. This break will also give me some time to make some display pieces to take to craft shows. If you have flowers that you would like for me to eventually make into jewelry, you can dry them out and save them until then. Thank you to everyone for your support and understanding! Of course, I will still be posting family pics and will keep everyone updated on the goings on of my family!

Gina's Jewelry



These necklaces and bracelets were sent to Gina Courington in Alabama. The rose beads were made from flowers from a funeral. I hope your family enjoys them Gina.

Baby #2 Is On The Way!!

Adam and I just found out yesterday that we are expecting our 2nd child! We are so excited and feel very blessed. I am also terrified of taking care of two children at the same time!! If anyone with more than one child has any tips, please let me know. Ian will be almost 3 years older than the baby, so I feel that is a good distance... hopefully he will be potty trained before the baby gets here! Our due date is September 15th and please keep our family in your prayers.

Davey's Bracelets

Emily is my little sister, and her boyfriend is Davey Britton. He ordered 3 of these bracelets for his mother, aunt, and grandmother. The rose beads are made from flowers that came from his grandfather's funeral. They were yellow, which is why the rose beads have a golden color. I combined them with all silver beads. He surprised them on Christmas with their bracelets, and he said that they really enjoyed them. Thank you Davey!

Ian's Birthday Party

Here are a few photos of Ian's birthday cake. He is obsessed with Thomas the Train right now, so Shelli Williams at The Sweet Shop in Smithville made him this cake. It was soooo cute, but the best part was that it tasted so good! Everyone loved it.... Ian got a little upset though when we cut into it!



Ian's party was at Chuck E. Cheese. Here is him, his cousin Lee, and Chuck E. He had a great time!


Merry Christmas


I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! We had a great one. It was soo much fun this year since Ian is old enough now to know what is going on. I have to admit though that I am very tired. Ian's birthday is the day after Christmas, so I am partied out! I realize now how hard my parents worked to make all of our holidays so special. I've had to remind myself many times this year about the true meaning of Christmas. We have also had lots of fun spending time with our family.



Ian's grandparents (Adam's mother & father) got him this gator for Christmas. He absolutely loves it!

Happy 2nd Birthday Ian!

Happy 2nd Birthday to my baby Ian! You are the light of my life, and I have no idea what I ever did before I had you. The picture above is the first smile of yours that we ever caught on camera. I love you!!
