May I Have Your Attention Please

I am closing out my business.
I opened my Gift/Floral Shop on September 27th, 2006. I learned that I was carrying my first child on December 12, 2006. I have had an awesome experience owning my own business. I have learned more than I ever could have imagined. However, I never imagined how much I would love being a Mom. Being a Mom is truly amazing and I am choosing to dedicate 100% of my time to my family.
The process of closing the store has been a slow and painful one. I have had two separate buyers that both fell through at the last minute. The most recent one, late last night.
Not wishing to drag it out any longer, my only option is a liquidation. Please come and stop by for some great savings.
I am so grateful for my family and their health. I know that Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways, he loves me, and he will always take care of me. He has carried me through the dark depths of the unknown over the past couple of months and has lifted my spirits when I would otherwise be lost in despair. He has shown me my strengths when I was convinced I was weak. I have had more spiritual growth over the last couple of months than I think I have over the course of my entire life.
I am hoping to be done with the liquidation in about a month, but I will keep you posted, wish me luck.

Hoppin' Down the Bunny Trail




The Easter Bunny made a visit to my store on Saturday. "W" loved him, it was so cute.

Little Bunny Foo Foo

I took these photos of "W" last week to enter him in a "Little Bunny Foo Foo" photo contest. I made "W" and JH easter bunnies from a free pattern that I got from Wee Wonderfuls. I thought they were adorable, but I was waiting to post them until the Duchess received the bunny I made for JH, so as not to ruin the surprise. Happy Easter Little Sir! I hope you enjoy teething on your bunny's ears.


New Banner

Even though the banner that the Duchess made me was great, Anna offered to make me one, and being the fashion photo artist that she is, I couldn't refuse. A special thanks to Anna, she always seems to evoke joyful squeals from me with her work.
PS I put my ugly caterpillar that tracks "W"s age at the bottom of the page.

Uno, Dos, Tres

Mi esposo y yo estamos aprendiendo espanol..........Translation: My husband and I are learning spanish.
We learned the alphabet, our numbers, and a few common greetings.....Mi nombre es Princess P. Como te llamas tu?
I am pretty excited about it. It's a two month class to begin with. I heard that 80% of people try and learn another language at some point in their lives, but not many ever actually learn it. We'll see how it goes.

Sorry Ladies, He's Taken

Well, I started this blog almost a year ago, my blogiversary is on the 21st. My first real post was of the dining room table PBTB made, yes made! And now, a year later, we have 10, yes 10, chairs to go with it. We have been dining at a breathtaking table for the last year sitting in folding chairs from Costco. I am married to the actual Superman. PBTB turned the spindles on these babies with his incredible eye for detail. To see them in person, you would never guess they were not done by machine. I, of course, got to help pick out the upholstery.

After an incredible feat by PBTB, refraining from swearing while he stapled, unstapled, and stapled again, repeated three times, they are done and well worth the wait.

Sea Legs

"W" found his sea legs today. We had Mommy & Me swimming lessons at the Pratt Aquatic Center. It took him a minute to warm up and start kicking around and then he was all grins.
