Happy New Year to everyone!!!!!!

Well, the end of the year is here. Holy Moly where did it go???? Now it is time to set resolutions......OH MY!! Where do I start?!?!?!?!
I guess my list is in no particular order really.

• I would like to start reading and studying my Bible more and having a closer relationship with God. I have been slacking and it shows.
  
• My shop needs revamping and I have been slacking alot on it too. I am thinking of expanding my items to include crochet things. I love to crochet and have made many things from adult afghans to tiny crocheted crosses. I am working on a few things now and will show them here first.
• The most famous one of all resolutions........ Lose more weight. I have lost 20 pounds already and feel better but now I need to tighten up what I have and that will help those last few pounds go away. I am hoping anyway.
  
• Keep a cleaner, neater house. I have clutter everywhere. I have really slacked there too. I need to set me up a routine and stick with it this year. I have tried www.flylady.net before and am thinking about trying it again.
  
• Be a better wife, mother, sister, daughter and anything else that I am. I think I am doing good as it is, but there are areas that I need to improve. I don't want to be perfect but just a bit better than I am right now.
  
• Make 2009 Christmas gifts ahead of time. I wanted to do so much this year that I didn't get done. I plan on starting this year right after the first of the year.
  

I could probably go on and on, but I don't want to bore you with my list of stuff. My resolutions are probably like everyone elses......... be a better person, lose weight, be more successful, and on nad on.......

I wish those that made their resolutions for this new year coming, the best of luck and blessings in the year and years to come.

Been a while.......

Sorry for not posting much in the past few weeks. I have been busy with everything but hair bows. I have had a very sick family. The week of Christmas was horrible. It didn't even seem like Christmas. Everyone but my oldest DD got extremely sick. I hadn't been that sick since I was preggo with my kids. It was awful. But we are all better now.

Our Christmas plans were to leave on Christmas Eve to make the 360 mile trip to my parents house. Well, none of us were in any shape or form to be traveling. So we decided to wait a day. The next day we weren't much better. So we went on Friday and we made it! I didn't think we probably would but we did. I actually enjoyed myself and I think everyone else did too. My girls were disappointed that they missed their cousins. My brother and his family came to my parents on Wed. and left on Friday morning. I love my brother and his family but they are so loud and there is not much discipline there at all. So they are all unruly. But hey I love them anyway. I have a neice that I have only seen in pics and she will be 1 in February. They live in Kansas and we live in Oklahoma and my parents live in Colorado. We all can't coordinate our time off to get together to see each other. LOL. Maybe some day.

I haven't been very creative here lately. Not feeling good tends to take away my creative side. Hopefully I will get to feeling better soon and will get my creative side back again. I am having a itch to crochet. I love to crochet and have crocheted many things from afghans to tiny crosses. I have been thinking about expanding my shop out to listing crocheted stuff. We will see.

Well, I guess I better get busy on cleaning and laundry. Don't want to but it has to be done.

BBBBRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man oh man is it cold here!!!!! At 3:30 this afternoon it was 80 degrees and in 30 minutes it dropped to 49 degrees. The wind hit and it changed so super fast. I could literally sit and watch our little weather atomic clock change the temp just about every second. It has temp gauge that measures to the point degrees like 39.8 degreees. As I sit here and type I am shivering at thinking how cold it is and will be in the morning when my girl gets on the school bus. BBRRRR!!!!

We will be bundling up good in the morning. The weather guy also said that there could be a chance for ice and freezing rain late monday nite and early tues morning. Great!!! NOT!!!!

Well, I am off to cuddle on the couch and to watch a good movie with my DH.

Stay warm!!!

Finally put up our Christmas tree!

I went and dug out our small selection of Christmas decorations. I had been waiting on my DH to do it but he never did so I decided that I would. We won't be home for Christmas this year so he thinks that we don't need to decorate that much. We will be going to my parents house. I wanted to atleast put up our tree for the girls and they loved decorating it. LOL
The finished product.......




My youngest's decorating.



My oldest's decorating skills.


Most everything is put in clusters and on the silver beaded string on the tree. My youngest refused to put ornaments on the tree branch. Don't know why, just refused. I thought about redoing it after they went to bed, but then thought that that is the way they want to do it so I left it. It is special to me and them. This is the first Christmas that both of them are really understanding what it is about.

I hope that everyone has a great holiday no matter what you celebrate!!!!!

Feeling a little bit better about my business.....

I sold one bow to a lovely lady the other day. I hope she likes it. =-) She is a wonderful photographer. Visit her site at HeatherLynn Photography.

I am still trying to figure out what to do with my business but not totally giving up. I am looking at other avenues to sell my bows at and some look pretty good. If I decide on one or two I will be sure to let you know.

Now to figure out what is for supper..........
anyone have any suggestions????

Later gators!!!

Very Disappointed!

I had such high hopes for Black Friday. I truly thought that it would be a good day and I would sell at least a few bows but I didn't even sell one. I thought I promoted my butt off but I guess it wasn't enough still. I am going to leave my prices up for the weekend and for Cyber Monday. Hopefully that will bring a few sales in. I am almost ready to give up on selling them. I sent emails to friends and family, sent out bulletins on Myspace, blogged about it, twittered about it, journaled on CM about it and NOTHING!!! My views didn't even go up that much. I have been on ETSY for over a year now and I don't even have 70 sales yet! I guess my bows aren't gawdy enough or something. I wish someone would be honest with me and let me know so I can fix it.

Okay I am off to pout and cry into my hot tea with lemon and honey. BOOHOO!!!!

Listing new bows!

I am listing new bows for the Black Friday Sale. I am so excited!!! I can't wait. Come check it out at www.queenbeebows.etsy.com. There is also a list of others having a sale for BF and some for the whole weekend!!! The list is in one of my other posts. Come by and save tons of money and get tons of awesome handmade gifts for family, friends and co-workers.

Getting ready!

Turkey is thawing and getting ready to cook tomorrow. My oldest is bored out of her mind and I am trying to find something for her to do. I am bored. I need to get busy making more bows for the Black Friday Sale. I need to get some pics taken of the ones I do have done and get them listed.

Well guess that means I need to get off of here and start getting things done.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I hope you have many Blessings to count this year and many more to count in the years to come.

May God Bless You In All You Do!!!!!

I deleted my other blog.

I did it because I don't really write in it anymore. I will just keep up with this one.

Hope everyone has a Blessed Happy Thanksgiving!!

Don't miss the Great Sale!!!!!!!!

Turkey Day!!!

I went to town and bought a turkey today... A 21lb turkey to be exact. BIG TURKEY!!! He barely fits on the bottom shelf of my fridge. I got chosen to cook the turkey this year. My DH's uncle is cooking the ham and most of the sides. So yeah, we will have plenty of meat for our Thanksgiving. There will only be about 20-22 people there but we will have a feast for a crowd of about 50. That is how DH's family does things. They are big eaters and it shows on all of them. Including me. It has taken me about 9 yrs to realize that most people don't eat that much food at one sit down meal. They do everyday meals big too. I have gained about 80 lbs since I married my DH a little over 10 yrs ago. Just in the last 6-9 months have I started to par down my eating habits. Honestly I am not a eat-when-i-get-bored or an emotional eater. I eat 3 meals a day but then for the rest of the time I sit on my tush infront of this computer or am watching tv while making hairbows. Yes I do get up and take care of my kids and cook meals and clean a little bit. I am working on getting up and doing more.

When I first started cutting down the amount of food I fixed for a meal, DH threw a fit. He thought that if there wasn't left-overs, then there wasn't enough. But it has taken me a little bit to get the exact amount of meat needed for each meal and not have too much left overs or to not have enough. I am fixing more sides and not just a meat for supper. I have cut WAY back on boxed meals. I have started to cook more from scratch and some meals are a flop and some are great.

We are by no means turning into health nuts but we are eating somewhat healthier.

Before I forget, take another look at the black friday sale going on this next weekend. I posted a list of CM ers that are doing the sales for that weekend.

Scouting out the sales........

I am so excited!!! I am totally into this Black Friday sale thing going on with all my fellow Cafemom ladies. I have been scouting out some stuff and will have my credit card handy when that day comes. If you need a list of all the Estians having a sale on that day and some are extending it to the whole weekend, look at my previous posts. I personally will have 20% off and Free shipping for that day and if all goes well maybe I will extend it for the whole weekend!!!!! So come check it out.

Have a Great Blessed weekend!!!

Twitter!!!

I have a twitter account now!! I would love it if you would want to follow me.
http://twitter.com/qbbetsy

Also I would want to announce that in the next few days I will be posting a list of all the Cafemom Etsymoms will be having a Black Friday Sale. This list is sure to have something for everyone on your list. Keep checking back to see who all is on the list!!!

Have a blessed week!!!

This is what I have been working on. Well, this and being sick and making more bows. LOL


I have had what everyone else has had for weeks now. I have a sore throat, cough, and no energy. I don't have a stuffy nose at all. Just my throat hurts like crazy. I have been drinking hot tea and honey and that seems to help a tiny bit. Cough drops leave a yucky taste in my mouth. Oh, and nothing tastes right right now either. YUCK!!!! I DON'T LIKE BEING SICK!!!!

Well, here in a little bit i am off to go get my oldest from Pre-K and then when we come back and every monster is fed and taken care of........I will turn on a movie and I will go blog surfing and possibly blog layout surfing too. I will let you know what I find. Today is a lazy day to spend on the internet.

Have a blessed day!!!

I WAS TAGGED!!!!!

THE RULES:*** Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.*** Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.*** Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their name as well as links to their blog.*** Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

1. Ten years ago I ran away from home to marry my hubby. I was in college and didn't let my parents know I was moving until it came time to drive away. Things weren't good with the parents for a while but are now.

2. I love to crochet. I have made many afghans for family and friends. I also crochet doileys and am thinking about setting up a second ETSY shop to try to sell them.

3. I spend way too much time on the internet looking at ETSY. Man there is some really neat stuff on there! LOL

4. I have too much ribbon. I have made a promise to myself that I won't buy anymore until I use up most of what I have now.

5. I am secretly wanting a baby. I get deathly sick when I am pregnant, but i want another so bad. :(

6. I can't wait to go back home for Christmas and see my neice who will be 10 months old and i have yet to see her in person.

7. I don't really know what else to say.

I tag:
Stitch 'N Love
Hopscotch Square
Cozy Cabin Creations
The Story of a Princess and her hair
Smokey Mountain Scents
Double Dipped Sweets

My newest creation!

I had a woman that I went to HS with contact me and wanted a bow to match their school colors. So here it is.....

It is a triple-layer bow. I think it is cute! Hopefully I can get a huge sell off of this. Praying that it happens.
Other than creating more bows, I don't have much to do today. I will probably take the kids out to play after lunch. The weather is nice today but is supposed to turn rainy and colder next week. Everyone has colds here. Snotty noses everywhere!!!! Yuck!!

Until later!!

This is what I get......

for letting my almost 5 yr old take pics with my camera. LOL
Enjoy the photography.........










UUUUGGGGHHHHHH!!!!! there are more but Blogger is being a pain so I will load more later. But so far these aren't bad. I have some fall pics I took too so I will load them up when blogger decides that it wants to work. LOL

Halloween was great!!

This is my youngest. She was NOT happy wearing the curlers. Actually they aren't curlers they are perm rods. I wanted her hair to be curly for her Halloween custome. She barely sit still long enough to let me do these to her. I had bought the new Tinkerbell movie last time I was in town and let her watch it while I did her hair.


I didn't have enough curlers to
do my oldest daughters hair so I just used the curling iron on her hair.





Here are my two beautiful daughters. My oldest insisted on being a bride this year, and my youngest insisted on being a princess. So here they are. The princess's hair is super cute. This is the best picture I could get of them. Youngest daughter hates for her pic to be taken. They got tons of compliments when we went trick or treating.

LOL

Have a safe and blessed day everyone.

I have been busy making bows. Okay, maybe not real busy but busy. I am fixing to make Christmas bows!! I am so excited and can't wait to get started. I have to clean up my desk and get busy.
Here are some pics of what I have been working on.
This one is bright and fun!! All the primary colors were used in this bow. I can mount it on either a alligator clip or I have a few different sized French Clips to choose from. I made this to match an outfit for a lady that makes good quality dresses. You can check out my other listings on my site at www.queenbeebows.etsy.com. I have the other shop with the outfits listed there too.



This hot pink bow is also made to match an outifit in the same ladies shop. It is mounted on an alligator clip and is approximately 2-2.25 inches at the widest point.





Thanks for stopping by and be sure to keep checking back at times to see if my Christmas bows are being listed!! HEHEHEHE. I LOVE CHRISTMAS TIME!!!!!!
