Hello, gorgeous! I’m thrill-tired after a week of visiting family, to celebrate the dawn of a new decade! My son, Andrew, was able to visit from Virginia. We had a wonderful visit and all of my four siblings and their families were able to get together, at the house, Friday night for dinner! While no longer with us, today would have been my dad’s birthday. Our parents always taught us the importance of family and it’s all a wonderful blessing. Life is so precious and thank goodness we have each other! Back at the shop… We’re stocking up on…

We had fun with a Make & Take, a make-shift Photo Booth, and of course, the amazing Wheel of Fortune! Cheryl’s brownies and champagne were my personal favorites, although many were raving about Darlene‘s cookies! I’ll share the recipe, once I track it down.

Hello, gorgeous! Meet Rolly, my oldest sister’s best companion, since her dear husband left for heaven. I visit with Carolyn, when I go to the fashion market, or get dental work done, at her son’s practice in Lafayette. Before Matt took over the practice, Carolyn’s husband, Ned was my dentist…since I was a teenager! I know my sister enjoys the company, as I enjoy the visit and tonight we went to a beautiful high school choral concert, her granddaughter sang at. Inspiring young people! We’re going all out this year! A balloon arch, storewide savings, the Wheel of Fortune, sweets,…
