Yesterday was my birthday and it was the best birthday I've had in years! I decided Sunday I wanted to get away for my birthday so I booked a tiny house with a hot tub on Airbnb in Compton, Arkansas. Of course I had a million things to do Monday because it's a month...
The second Bella on the Boulevard was another success - it was hot, so it wasn't perfect, but we had a great group of exhibitors and a decent crowd came to support us. I have to talk about my favorite piece in the show. A friend of mine was in a motorcycle accident...
The Roll Haus Founding Skate Night was a great success! Lots of people came out to roller skate. I've decided I'm going to have to get good at roller skating if I'm going to be involved in these events, so I'll be ordering skates soon. I ordered parts and built the...
I usually look forward to my “week off” from having a large list of estate sales and auctions and I didn’t even realize it would be this week. It’s a nice surprise because I’m snowed under with stuff to do. Many of my ads for the January 12-13 Antique Alley Arkansas Antique Show are due by this Friday and I haven’t even started designing them. It’ll be nice to have them out of the way, though! Despite being overwhelmed with work to do, I’m having lots of fun with the boys. Last week we were invited to the Maumelle Fire Department’s Christmas party and Santa made an 
appearance. Joshua couldn’t care less who holds him, so I got a good photo of him with Santa. Little Caleb was suspicious of Santa because he looked like the man who sat with us during dinner (that kid is way too observant!), so he wouldn’t even stand with him for a photo. Then again, Little Caleb doesn’t like me taking his photo these days. He makes a game of dodging me. We had fun decorating a gingerbread house today. I’m glad I got a photo right after we completed it because he almost immediately started picking the candies off it. I would expect no less from my son, though. 🙂 And then there’s Merry Ho-Ho, the Elf on a Shelf named by Little Caleb, who keeps forgetting to sit somewhere different when he comes back from the North Pole every night. He’s been hanging from a light fixture for two days. Normally Big Caleb is the one who assists him, but being as Big Caleb has fallen asleep at his desk, I may have to help Merry Ho-Ho find a different place to hang out for tomorrow. Christmas has already been fun and it’s not even here yet!
