All Natural Handcrafted Soap

One thing that I enjoy about Colorado is the amount of craft fairs that pop up around the holidays.  There are so many gifted artisans and one of them I would like to highlight.  Her name is Anita, owner & artisan of the Bubbly Soap Company.  In simple terms, Anita makes soap...really good soap... which is both beautiful and luxurious.  She also makes other products, such as moisturizers & bath salts.  Everything she makes is all natural and top quality.  I use her products myself and have been so pleased.  Here is her web address:  http://thebubblysoapcompany.com  Check it out and give her products a try.  You won't be disappointed.

Go away wind!

We have not been getting much snow lately, but we have been getting a lot of wind.  We live in the foothills so the wind is very strong at times.  Mark finally got the fence built only to have the wind knocking it over.  The wind blew our BBQ off the deck and another one of the covers on our window wells was destroyed.  I am so tired of the wind!  Love the view here at our house, just hate the wind.

Been following the Broncos.  I have to let you in on something that is great about Denver.  Bronco fans!  When I was out and about this past week there were so many fans wearing Bronco shirts or Bronco colors (orange & blue).  It was like the town was painted orange & blue everywhere I went.  The exciting news is that the Broncos are going to Superbowl...Hooray!!!

Welcome 2014!

Blessed new year to all of you!  I hope that 2014 holds many blessings for you and a deeper relationship with our Lord.

2014 already looks exciting, the Lord has many blessings ahead for us.  One includes our young friend Sheny.  She had her baby January 3rd.  A little boy weighing 7 lbs. 2 oz.  She named him Isaac.  When she goes back to work I will be looking after Isaac.  I am very excited to be blessed with this opportunity to make a difference.

In February, Mark and I will be taking a CPR class together.  With having little ones around us we felt it would be wise to update our first aid skills.  On February 19th we are expecting our first grandchild, Everett. 

In the spring/summer I may be joining Mark on a business trip to Germany.  We will see how it all pans out as the time approaches.

In July my young friend, Tara will be having her 2nd child which I am excited about.  Tara is like a daughter to me.  I am already enjoying her 1st child, Grady.  Christmas 2013 was the first Christmas Grady could open gifts.  At 17 months old Grady is full of spunk and very smart.  It was fun to watch him open the present I gave him.  He knew right away what it was and couldn't wait to open the box.  So cute!
