Will he or will he not, that is the question....

"What is she talking about?",you may be asking yourself. Punxsutawney Phil! Will he see his shadow on Saturday or not? I know I always get pretty excited about Ground Hog's Day and the prospect that spring is coming soon!  Well we've decided to celebrate the occasion by having a very exciting sale here at the store and offering a special discount to anyone who comes into the store on Saturday wearing their PJ's.

Now there is a pair of PJ's! Bright Gerber daisies by LakeHouse Dry Goods. This is still one of my favorite fabric lines. I just LOVE it! Thought this might inspire some bright "happy" pj wearing this weekend.

Kids

Even if spring doesn't come as quickly as we would like, we can still enjoy the snow right! What could be more fun than tubing with the kids? You know tubing isn't really my thing, but I had a great time. And I am happy to report, I didn't hurt myself or wet my pants! So all is good!

Amaryllis

There might be snow on the ground, but inside I have my little hope of spring. My very first Amaryllis that I have "raised from a pup", ok, well actually it was a bulb that I got for Christmas from my oldest daughter Olivia. She knows how much I love flowers and growing them. I planted this bulb right after Christmas and have been taking photos of it's progression. Can you tell how excited I am about this flower? OH MY GOODNESS! Isn't it beautiful! New life!

New Things....

Have you all been wondering if I dropped off the face of the earth? Well, not exactly, but I have been rebuilding my little corner of earth here at TTD. As a lot of you know, we began our expansion of the retail store here in November, and between all of that and the holidays, I just could not find the time for everything and my little blog here was "sorely" neglected. So PLEASE forgive me and hopefully I can make up for the disappointment in the next few weeks as I unveil the new space!

Here is a "sneak peek" at part of the NEW SPACE. This is actually Miss Sherry's new office. I have been "junking it up" quite nicely don't you think? This way she has her own space and she can still see everything that's goin' on in the store! So What do you think about it so far? Let me know.....

Shop_valentine

Here is a little Valentine display the girls set up in the shop. This line is called All you need is Love by Deb Strain for Moda. Isn't it just the happiest little collection! You know all they had to do was use pink and green to sell me on it, and the fact that it looks like chocolate too, well what more do I need to say?

Bella

And, last but certainly not least.... is this the most beautiful princess you've ever seen or what! Miss Sherry's granddaughter Isabella (Bella) came to visit all of us at the studio last week, so I thought it would be a great idea for her to make her first appearance on the blog! Her response was "WHATEVER"! As long as her mom was in clear sight she was ok with me holding her. I have to agree with her grandma; she is "bite-able ".

So, that's it for now! More photos of the new addition coming soon. I promise! Until then, stay warm and remember spring is just around the corner!! Just keep telling yourself that!
