Happy Birthday MOM!!

Mom and dad came for dinner last night to celebrate moms birthday!! It was so much fun!! We drank too much wine and ate too much cake but that's what birthdays are for right?? My mom turned 69 yesterday and she looks amazing!! It was a great night!!

Meeting Nathan

I saw my friend Chritine today and her beautiful baby boy, Nathan Alexander Ashbee. I've been telling John tonight that I'm in LOVE!!! (with Nathan that is). Nathan is four months old and definately stole my heart today.

Somedays I'd love to have another baby but then I wonder if it would be fair to Brandon and Stephanie. They will most likely need all of our love an attention as they enter their teenage years. I suppose I might just have to enjoy my friends babies for now and patiently wait for grandchildren.

It was so nice to meet you today Nathan!! I will see you soon!!

FROM CHINA!!!

I got production shots from my China manufacturer today and my first overseas order will be shipping within the next few days. This has been a long time in the making and I'm excited and nervous all at once. Thank you to Jeff in California for making this happen. Without his patience and expertise in overseas manufacturing and shipping this would never have come to be. Here is a photo from the factory...

This is a HUGE order so everyone I know might be getting a box of Pageframes for Christmas - ha ha!! This order is shipping via container to the Port of Seattle and going direct to a NEW distribution center in Idaho - I hope it is a smooth transition!!! Thanks to everyone that has been involved.... it's all good!!

Belated Halloween Pictures...

We had a great Halloween. The kids had a blast!! As they get older things definately change. No more cute little Princesses and Puppy Dogs. The best thing about Halloween is that when it's over Christmas is next!! I love to decorate my house for the season and I'm wondering when I can get started. Is this weekend too early???

Here are pictures of the kids... Stephanie was a most beautiful Marilyn Monroe and Brandon was the handsome Charlie Chaplin...

The kids went Trick of Treating with their friends (John followed at a distance) and they had alot of fun. They came home cold and tired. I guess that's good!!! I'm doing my duty as a parent to save their teeth and EAT their candy!!

Goodbye Halloween I say and..... hurry up Christmas!!
