Taimi and I set up Caleb's bedroom set from the Caring Transitions auction Friday and he loves it. We had to cram the furniture on one side of the bedroom to leave room for him to play on his VR headset. The cats love Caleb's new bed too and have been sleeping...
A few months ago I gave Caleb my office so he could have his own bedroom. I planned on finding him a new mattress during Black Friday sales, but a bedroom set on last week's Caring Transitions auction caught my eye beforehand. I won the bedroom set, a generator, and a...
I'm so thankful for a successful Bella Rustina last weekend. I needed cancellations badly to make the layout like I wanted it. No one canceled until it was too late to change the layout, so it was the biggest show I've ever hosted with over 400 booths and 246...

Hope you're enjoying the Fall weather! On Sunday afternoon I took the boys to a local fall festival and we enjoyed it. On Saturday I visited a vintage market to recruit more exhibitors for the November 7-8 Bella Rustina in Rogers. We have an amazing lineup and I want...
