Life and Times

Something white and something green

Guess what, we sure did get that snow! Yesterday was a fun, out of the ordinary day. My husband took off from work and stayed home to enjoy the big snow. This was the most snow we had this year, and will probably be the last. 🙁 He made a crock pot full of chili, […]

Another excuse for cake!

It’s Fat Tuesday and I’m up late. I just had to post a few of my favorite pictures from today. I know there are some of you who stop by that are family or friends and you just want a quick update on my life. Then there are the others that found me one way […]

The Loot

Yesterday was wonderful. I made it to the Gem and Jewelry Show that comes to the Dulles Expo Center 4 times a year. When jewelry making is constantly on your mind, and you can’t resist adding one more bead to your stash, then this is an event you don’t miss. Okay, I know I really […]

Low key and not complaining

Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by. Low key…that’s the kind of day I had. With the holiday today I had no where I had to rush off to…so rare and wonderful. Two of the boys were off skiing with their Grandparents in WV, so I was down to just 2 at home. Why not bake […]

Happy Hearts Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day! ….hope yours is full of love and chocolate! 😉

Little bit of everything

Today was one of those busy days from beginning to end. February 12th…my little guy turned 4 months old today. It seems like yesterday that I mentioned he was already 3 months. I make a big deal out of these little milestones. I love to take pictures; I basically put on a mini photo shoot to mark […]

25 Things

The 25 Things list has gone around the blog scene for some time. Recently I’ve been tagged on Facebook (thanks Andrea, Anne, Cheryl, Madeline and Brian!). Rather than tagging more people, I thought I’d share a little more about me right here. This is not anything deep and philosophical, just random tid bits about me. […]

Where wirework takes me

I know that does sound like a silly title. But today I met an online-turned-in-person friend at Starbucks for some tea/cocoa. This jewelry making habit has led me to some interesting people over the last couple of years, and to some wonderful friends. Take Jeanette, we began corresponding over the summer after she sent me […]

Snow Day!

In rain, wind, sleet or snow, USPS delivers! We’ve had two snow days here in Virginia. I know, I know, nothing like up North, but hey, it’s our first big snow! And the kids got off from school for two days! They were SO happy. Two days without running around like a taxi for me. […]
