For our Biggest Fan

Our COO Eric is possibly our biggest fan.

He is so enthralled that we are skating derby style, and can't wait to see us skate!

He's even mentioned having a company skate night.

So when we started working Saturday mornings, I asked Eric if I could wear my skates to work to offset any derby practice I would be missing.

Of course I was kidding, but he didn't care if I was kidding or not, and said "sure!"

So, Megan and I got the genius idea of gearing up and skating over to surprise him.

So we took our time and "padded up".

And then we took off to the other side of the office.

We're a couple of mean looking derby girls... :)

He SO did not expect us, and it totally thrilled him.

So much so that he put on his own derby shirt (that we designed and hand crafted, of course).

And that photo was his idea, and probably my favorite shot of the day.

Then we went back to work... because, ya know, we're professionals like that.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!

R is for Ronnebeck!
