Update...

Sorry this blog was not updated by the 15th as promised. It turns out getting a motherboard for my old computer is more expensive than buying a new computer altogether. So, we are taking our time looking for a new one and considering switching to a Mac. Please post a comment if you have any suggestions or comments about this.

The good news is that I got a new camera for Christmas that I am so excited about. Once I have a new computer, I will be posting some of the pictures I have been taking to improve my photography skills. Hopefully, you will find some of them enjoyable.

The other good news is that a local restaurant is interested in selling my aprons, so I am busy getting the inventory ready. This means that my Etsy shop will probably not be updated for a while, but considering the sales, I don't think it will be an issue.

Thank you to those of you that continue to read this blog! I hope it will become more interesting when I am able to update it regularly.

The Mother Ship has crashed...

I'm sorry it has been such a long time since my last blog. My mother ship (or mother board) has crashed. I will try to have the problem fixed and more aprons (maybe some other items as well) in my shop by Jan. 15th. Thanks to all of you that continue to check my blog for updates and continue to be disappointed. Happy New Year!

Christmas decorating

The tree is finished with some gifts under it already.












We used our tandem as our mantel to hang our stockings.









And, I framed a favorite card that was given to me a couple of years ago.












It doesn't feel like Christmas down here, but we're doing our best to make it look like it.

Another beauty...

This is the apron I made for my sister, Krystl, last Christmas, and she models it so well. It says “small but powerful and lots of fun” to me which is exactly Krystl. I love her and miss her dearly!

Beatiful Ladies in Aprons

I decided the easiest way to get over my fears of people reading this blog was to post more pictures of other people in aprons. The first is an undated picture of my Grandma McDonald. The second picture is of my sister, Hethyr, last Christmas in one of Grandma's aprons. There are really no words to do these pictures justice which makes my job easy. I hope you all enjoy looking at these as much as I do.

I love my Mom!

After begging my Mom to please not use my name if she shared this site with anyone, she sent out an e-mail to her entire contact list with my name and the link. And to top it off, she also sent the e-mail to me, so I know how many people were included. Now, of course, I can’t think of anything to write about. It is so much easier when you assume no one will be reading it. And, if anyone did, I was using the ever-so-clever code name thought up by my husband. Please give me a couple of days to work up the nerve to add a new post. Thanks! Happy Holidays!

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MOM!!!!
