reuse.

just got a sprint reclaim, and I am loving it. its made partially from corn so that it breaks down faster in a landfill. if anyone needs a new sprint phone you know where to go.

here it comes.

hey roomies...here it comes! can't wait to catch up. Tiff will be in my heart this weekend. miss her terribly.

I was asked lately how Palmegranate & Co. had its start. that got me thinking. I have been crafting since I was little, very little. my mom said that I used to get just paper, crayons and tape for my birthdays. there was never any tape left over in the whole house. granny barb helped me check out a knitting/crochet how to book with pictures and so I learned to do that too. I loved it.

creating is in my blood. if it wasn't for my crafting mom, who is still just as crafty today, there wouldn't have been anyone there to feed that creative drive. and I feel good doing it. I love that running Palmegranate & Co. lets me stay home with my boys and still feel productive in the world. plus, I can't believe its perks.

I have done almost anything to everything in the crafting world. Needlepoint, baby items, home decor and holiday decorating. I now have found a happy home in crochet and soon to be knitting items for all ages. I am expanding my shop to include a jewelery and charm line. I am also self-teaching clothing construction. that is going to be a while for that.

try doing something crafty-it will bring you amazing results in so many different ways.

picts.

these are just some of the picts from our cruise. sea sickness, gone.

babies.

missed my boys. missed jaxson's "how many minutes?" and nasch's smiling, and Graedy's kissies. Mostly just missed being there and doing things with them. Can't wait until they are bigger to go with us. daddy missed them too.

sea legs.

hum. Loved the cruise to mexico. So much in fact that I almost forgot what it felt like to be on land. And who says "get your sea legs" when you sail on a ship? Don't believe them. It took me a good solid 2 days to find them and I am still trying to lose them. But, it was new, exciting and amazing all at the same time. Give it a try sometime.

oh, picts to come...

first day of preschool.

is it really here? My two handsome beaus. off to Morningside PreSchool.

Paris was amazing. I wanted to soak it all in and remember it forever. Love the shopping, creme bruelle, crepes, the people, the french, the oldness of everything. Perfect 30th.

(one of my new hat designs. just trying it out in fashionable paris. watch for the upcoming posting at www.palmegranateandco.etsy.com)

waiting.

I am having a hard time waiting...is anyone else?
