Where friends gather

What a fun party. Where all friends gather, laugh, shop and eat. What a great way to spend a Saturday. We love to see you all!

So much fun stuff!


These three always have a fun time. We love to see their smiling faces at the shop

Thanks for coming to the party everyone!

We have some great customers

We love all of our customers, but this couple I just have to share with you. As they shopped the store their dog was very comfortable to be packed around in the bag his owner wore. In visiting with them they asked if we knew where they could find goggles for the dog. Okay, now we just had to know more...The dog rides everywhere with them in the bag on the front of a Harley! What a great couple! We hope to see them again soon.

Is this MY mom..

I have to share this with you...My mom has started coming to our Wednesday stitching group. We really enjoy her. She usually brings knitting to work on, but last week she brought her stitching. She sat at the table and brought out a Ziploc bag with a 10 year old project inside. That is about how often my mom does stitchery. She zipped open her bag and took out her thread snarl and began to pull out the needed color....everyone at the tables mouths fell open. Is this MY mom? Who taught her the best way to organize her thread. I think I have forgotten a very important lesson. After five minutes of uncontrollable laughter (even my mom laughed) we let her in on how much easier it would be if it were sorted and bagged. Well, we didn't get that far because then she realized that she hadn't worked on the tea towels for so long that the iron on pattern had disappeared. What a fun day we had! Now I have to give my mom credit, she is a wonderful artist and writer, stitching is just not her thing...

When it rained, it poured!

We really need to have the raingutters moved! We have discovered that if there is enough rainfall to float the ark, the planter boxes fill with water and emty out into the shop....Thank goodness with the help of some good friends, we didn't have any damage. Customers all pitched in and help out. Lucas bailed water out of the planter boxes and caught the rain in buckets as it came out of the raingutters. The first bucket he accidently poured in his shoe! The girls in the store swept out the water, moved fixtures and models and helped us see the humor. Thanks everyone!!!
