Happy St. Patty's Day!
Spring Break going on right now, but we're not able to go anywhere because the hubby is oncall 24/7, which is a total bummer. Marshall and I are planning to drive to Cattleman's Restaurant later today for lunch, but more importantly to feed the bunnies. Going to drive 50minutes to feed bunnies...crazy huh? If we stay home, Marshall can play Wii all day long, which is just sooo bad for him. I've got terrible images in my mind of him older, chubby, and hypnotized by the video screen...yikes!
Have a nice rest of Spring Break!
See you back here for an Easter Sale soon!

OMG...I didn't realize that I hadn't updated this blog in sooo long! Sorry!
Hope everyone is having a "lovely" Valentine's Day so far. We're not doing much in the romance department. We're not even going to attempt going out for dinner...way too crowded. Hubby got me a Dairy Queen heart-shaped cake so far.
I was so planning on having a Valentine's Day Sale here on the website, but I forgot all about it (must be getting old). So I'm going to have a ONE-DAY Valentine's Day Sale for you loyal friends! Enjoy!
Have a sweet Valentine's Day everyone...hope cupid gets you!

Opps!...sorry about the late Holiday Sale start. The sale prices are up now, so get it while you can! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or special requests. I still have time to do any special request jewelry pieces too- just let me know what you're interested in and what colors you have in mind. I can work with you!
Hope you all had a fun Halloween. We didn't do much for Halloween, except for the usual passing out candy, Hubby took Marshall treat-or-treating, and we had good friends over. Here's a picture of Marshall in his Halloween costume as Captain Rex from Star Wars The Clone Wars TV show.
Have a nice week everyone! I'll be back with more later.

OMG...Sooo sorry for not updating in sooo long!
Been super busy with all sorts of things going on- Marshall started school, we took a trip to Oregon, Hubby and I had a date to see James Taylor in concert, I started IVF, and Hubby is getting rid of a work problem/person.
Here's a picture of Marshall and his best friend Carter from their first day of Kindergarten.
A few pictures from the Oregon Coast.
Beadwise...there will be a Halloween Sale coming up soon. I'm trying to figure out the special freebie details now. Will let you know more later.

Oh Geez...sorry for not updating in sooo long! Just been busy with stuffs and feeling the lazy summer blah too.
My parents came to visit us (the only ones who do), and we took an eight hour road trip to San Antonio. It was a long drive, but worth it because we got to go to SeaWorld, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, Mark golfed with Jeff, and we had dinner with old friends! It was a good trip!
Marshall starts school this Thursday, so hopefully that goes well.
I'll try to get some pictures uploaded (from Mom's camera), so be back with those later.
Have a nice week all!

Happy 4th of July!
To celebrate this 4th of July, I will be starting a "4th Of The Price" Sale for this weekend only! That means...75% off! And at these prices, you're getting the jewelry for less than what it cost me to create. I can only afford to run this sale starting now through midnight(PST) tomorrow. So get yourself something pretty at a really really pretty price!
Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!
Update: Some have requested an extension to the sale, so I'll make it until Sunday now. Thanks!

Hope all you Dads have a relaxing day!
We just got back from Ruidoso, New Mexico for our Father's Day weekend. It was another fun time with golfing and new places. Stayed at The Lodge of Sierra Blanca, and golfed at The Links of Sierra Blanca. Saturday night, we went for a fancy Father's Day dinner at Willmon's Prime Grille. Had Lobster Bisque, and the best Pan seared Duck meal in a long time. Did the Cherry Festival in High Rolls, New Mexico, which was a nice time too. No pictures from this trip...forgot my camera, ugh!
Have a nice week! Bye for now.

Sorry for not updating this blog for awhile.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer already.
We spent our 10 year anniversary in Tucson, AZ, which was a great time. Went to the Biosphere2 and Pima Air&Space Museum, and stayed at the Westin La Poloma Golf Resort. Here are a few pictures.
Us in front of Biosphere2. Pretty cool idea...in the 80's a group of scientist sealed themselves in for a two year science experiment. The place costs something like 150 million dollars to build, and is now being used by the University of Arizona for other science experiments. My favorite part of the place was these dome shaped "lungs" (can't see them in the picture), which was used to regulate the air pressure in the entire Biosphere2. Very interesting place for all you science and tech people...I recommend it.
Here's a beautiful Tucson sunset view from our room.
This is Mark&Marshall being goofy at the Pima Air and Space Museum. Marshall had a great time here, all excited over all the plane...a definite must do for the kids while in Tucson. We even got to walk aboard Air Force One from President Kennedy's years, and the plane was surprisingly still well preserved.
Have a great summer, I'll be back with another blog update soon.

Like I mentioned earlier, the Mom's Day Sales Event has started! The sale is 30% Off and free shipping! Plus, a little something fun is the free Swarovski Puffy Pink Heart Phone/Purse Charm I'm giving for every $50.00 order! You can see what the free Swarovski Puffy Heart looks like below or in the Phone/Purse Charms section under the shopping menu. So while you're giving that special beautiful Mom's Day gift, you're getting a little something beautiful for yourself too. Fun!

Sorry if you missed the sale. :(
Don't worry...Be happy. Because I'll probably have a Mother's Day Sale soon, maybe not 50% off, but something fun and special, so check back again okay?
Have a nice week!

We went to Legoland and Disneyland for Spring Break! Here's a few photos. It was a goodtime! My parents, Marshall and I had the best time on the 4D Toy Story Midway Mania ride in Disney Aventureland (even if we had to wait in the 45-minute line...twice!). There's nothing like quality family time in Disneyland!

Sorry folks...no shipping until March 20th! Thank you!

Marshall turned 5 on Friday!
Happy Birthday Sweetie!
Haven't done much recently other than getting ready for Marshall's B-party. We had his B-party yesterday at Adventure Zone (like a kicked-up mega huge ChuckECheese place with go-carts, bumper boats, trampoline, batting cages). It was total mayhem with 24 kids, and almost 50 persons total. Actually, I'm still recovering...all my energy was completely zapped, I must be getting old!
I'm thinking about having an Easter Sale soon, so please check back. My brain is just too fried to do any important matters at the moment.
Have a great week!
