Life in 48 hours……

November 4, 2008

I started my weekend here at the beach near San Diego,and I was able to see my grandmother who is going to be 90 in February, and she still lives on her own, on this lovely beach.

Then i spent the eve with this lovely girl. Kimberly is my 19 year old cousin who goes to school in San Diego but is from Colorado. I was lucky to have her in my life and see her become who she is today. I lived in Vail once years ago (that is where i met my hubby, but that’s another post).

O.k. now this is where the fun starts. One of my best freinds Jeanne and I attended Heather Bullards event on Sunday in Riverside. As you can see, Jeanne had SO much fun putting together one of projects that was part of the event.


And then I got to meet my other best friend Sara. (she might not think I’m her bff, but she’s definitely mine). Sara is the famous SadieOlive, and the reason my site looks the way it does.

I practically email her every day, actually going to send her an email right now;) I just want to say, that i have a feeling her pictures that she is going to post will be beautiful. Nice camera Sara!

Oh, and see my necklace? you can buy it here.

and this girl with me is Beth Quinn, and I am lucky to finally meet her in person. I also carry her lovely handmade jewelry in my shop. See the bracelets? you can get them here!

Noteworthy news from Lola B’s

October 17, 2008

Noteworthy news from Lola B’s.
My friends Teri and Serena from The Farm Chicks now have a blog up and going, so when you get a chance, head over and say “hello”, I’m sure they would love to have you visit!

Also, if you have not heard, this is was a punch for me: Nancy Soriano who is Senior Editor at my FAVORITE magazine, stepped down a few weeks ago to pursue other interests. I currently don’t know who is taking the position, but I will be sad to see her go, though knowing that she has been with the magazine for so long and when you have to make a change, then you have to make a change.

She took the magazine from a dowdy “country” feel to a hip, urban, fun feel! I hear all the time how people “think” a magazine with a name like ‘Country Living’ should be, but in reality, it’s such a breath of fresh air, and I always look forward to my next issue!

and……………..I just want to say “thank you” again for all the emails i am getting about “shop” news of moving. My sale at the shop starts today, and will go for one month. It truly will be an experience at the new location!

I leave for Cali in 2 weeks for Heather Bullards ” A Parisian Holiday”, I’ll get to finally meet Sara, who does so much for me, and Beth Quinn, she who is so talented! It’ll be a whirlwind trip of only one night (b-day present), but so exciting as i get to meet up for coffee with some blog friends, and lunch with others.
