Winter Wonderland!

Sharin Memories will be closed today...stay home, stay warm, and play board games.  Bake cookies....Read...Enjoy your children, and eachother!

Walkin in my Winter Wonderland!!!!

Oh My goodness....It is so beautiful here in Rainier!!!  the snow is so pretty,
The kids had a 2 hour late start today, were at school for 2 hours and then got sent home because of all the snow!  I am home baking cookies and sewing hats for my show this weekend at Ocean Shores, listening to Christmas music all day on 95.7 FM  What a great Day!

My Dear Friend told me the other day that friends should let each other know how important they are to us and that we love them...I have been thinking about this, and I totally agree.  My friend here in Rainier lost her husband last week, we went to the funeral on Sunday.  It was an extremely sad day.  I believe now more then ever that this is true...tell your friends and the people that are important in your life that they are special, that you love them, that they are important.  You never know....that is all.

Be grateful now!

Graphic 45 Domestic Goddess!!!! is here

Ladies the Fed Ex man...Beau...was just here, but there were two ladies following him into the store...and bought 1/3 of the paper before I even put it out, so it is hot.....

Remember to cover your outside faucets and open your cabinets under the sinks at your house so the pipes don't freeze.

That's it for today....take care and stay warm!

Good morning everyone...

My husband is out winding up the hoses and draining the pool filter so it all won't freeze.  I will be cooking up a few things for the freezer so NEXT time the power goes, we will be a little better prepared.

I just found out that my daughter may not be coming home for Thanksgiving...that just about breaks my heart, cause that is the one thing that we do every year...go to the beach as a family and spend about 4 1/2 days together...It makes me sad as I see her slipping into her own...; (

I think I told you all that the HARRY POTTER paper is here...it will not last long so get it quickly.

We have a POT LUCK crop on Friday night, just bring a project and something to share and join us Friday night till midnight...$10.00 buys your way in...

Saturday is a plethora of classes, and Sunday is our first annual ROUND ROBIN... THAT IS 4 DESIGNERS, 4 DIFFERENT PROJECTS, call the store for details on that!

Crazy wet and cold and windy weather today... AGAIN

Well, yippie...there is power once again...we were without out in Rainier for 33 hours, not too bad.  We have a small generator that we were able to plug in the fridge and the freezer to save our food.  Last night the boys and I all sat around one lamp in the living-room that we also had plugged into the generator and played SORRY.  Sometimes having the power go out is not such a bad thing. 

We do have power at the store...so that is good.  We got the NEW "Harry Potter" paper yesterday, so that is fun also some fun fun fun "Sock Monkey" papers too, this is too cute.

There is a beautiful vintage card class tonight!  An Advent canvas class tomorrow night and another card class on Saturday and the "snowman and mitten" banner class on Saturday ....Also a darling "Gift tags and gift treat" class Saturday too.  So many choices, so little time!  Check out the photos on the website.

Also just wanted to say that the classes that Carole and I taught up in Bellevue last weekend were a great success.  All the ladies and one guy loved the class, lots of fun shopping, great food up there, and generally a great time had by all, we thank everyone who helped... cut, work, and teach...thanks to all of you for our continued success!

One more thing....my friend Sherri makes these beautiful aprons, and will custom make one for anyone.  They are lined, beautifully sewn, and darn right adorable.  I have this one in the photo at the store if you would like to see it.  They would make a great gift for someone this year for Christmas and they are only $20.00  

HAPPY VETERANS DAY!!!

Please Remember our Veterans...

It's the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press.

It's the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech.

It's the Veteran, not the community organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate.

It’s the Military who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag.
