I have been making jewelry for about 5 years now and it's one of those hobbies were there is no end because jewelry is constantly changing and evolving. New techniques pop up and it gives new life. I have been making these 'friendship' stacking bracelets all week and it will probably be another week until I stop because they are addicting to make and wear.

I sell my jewelry but I also find that I give my jewelry away more often. I just like making jewelry. If I sell some great! If I don't, I will still make stuff lol. You can imagine what my jewelry stash looks like! I have a Facebook page and also a page on Instagram! Look me up and have a look! I also do a lot of  specialty orders so if you want something and can't find it, I can, in most cases make it.

Thanks for stopping by!

It's been a while since I've been on here. Life has been going on and that takes precedence over anything else. But I recently remembered that I had a blog!! So I thought I would hop on over here and do a yearly update lol.

   We had a rough start to this year. We started the year out with yet another and final miscarriage. We spent that one in the ER for 9 hours because of major major hemorrhaging. We were told and also felt that we should call it quits with trying to have a 5th. So we are enjoying our babies that we have!! We truly are blessed to have them!
 
We moved in May after 4 years in our previous place. My kids recently started school again. My oldest is in 5th now, second oldest is in 3rd and our 3rd oldest is in Kindergarten. My last baby is still at home with me and I am soaking in the time I have with him before he goes to school.

Life is much the same. And I'm happy with that! We are in Halloween mode now and we are having fun with that! We have big plans for this month since it comes but once a year! Costumes have been purchased, house is decked out, pumpkin patch is scheduled, fall festivals, Halloween parties. I may be more excited than my kids!

I don't know who took this photo but my heart has been longing for fall for quite a while. Since leaving our home state and moving to San Diego, we have not enjoyed a fall here without having to take a long drive. Now I love that I can grow a garden 365 days a year but I miss raking leaves, and coats, and actually needing to drink a cup of hot apple cider or hot chocolate to keep ones innards warm. Driving through the mountains and having a such a spectacular autumn view, jumping in the leaves. Just the FEELING of autumn- yes to me there is a FEELING of autumn. You can feel it in your bones. The change of season. If I keep writing about this any longer I may start crying.

 I miss Autumn.  Dang you San Diego.
