Christmas gift sets now available. 

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my friends out there at the beginning of this holiday season. I just penned a little note on my facebook page that goes something like this......it's a little bible verse from 1st Corinthians.......

For these still remain, faith, hope,  and love and the greatest of these IS love.

Where to find us.



The Shops at Arrowhead Mall in Muskogee

Stop in and say hello this weekend.  I know you are craving a cookie from Great American Cookie in the food court.



2012 Honey Harvest

While sitting on our duff's and watching the latest episode of Duck Dynasty this past week we suddenly realized that we had a beehive to tend too as well. I hope you enjoy the few pix I have posted about our weekend project. You'll find this honey in the Oatmeal, Milk, and Honey bar soap.

 So much to do so little time in the life of mine.

 

Our boys layed the news on us this weekend that they have decided they BOTH want to show pigs this Spring......we do not know anything, I mean NOTHING about pigs......stay tuned.....

I guess we won't say "no" to this project either.

Where does our goats milk come from

Sing along with me now,

Here she comes, Miss America.
 There she is, your ideal.
The dream of a million girls,,,Um goats,
Who are more than pretty,
can come true in Atlantic City, um I mean Oklahoma. 
 For she may turn out to be, 
The Queen of femininity.

Miss Orbit is a 4 year old doe born and raised in Wagoner, Oklahoma. She spends her days grazing and running along side her mama, Starlight and sister, Milkyway. She would like to thank Shane Greer and his son, Jacob for always believing in her and making sure her udders are clean and milked twice daily.  Miss Orbit would like to see world peace for all goats and does not think euthanasia should be legalized.

Happy Labor Day!

These are the little things that make me happy.  I am trying really, really hard not to "GOOGLE it" as I prefer to remain in the dark. I kind of like it that way.

Red Fern Festival

This weekend we will be in Tahlequah, OK at The Red Fern Festival. This 3 day event is based on the great literary novel, Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls.  There's all kinds of things to do in this quaint little town that sits just west of the Illinois River. Step back in time and come join me and don't forget to bring a lawn chair so you can sit a while, listen to great, live music and of course people watch. 

ps, there will be hound dogs

Shampoo and Conditioner

Check out the new Peppermint and Tea Tree Shampoo and Conditioner.

Talk about awakening the senses! Peppermint is uplifting and refreshing with too many benefits to list and Tea Tree is the go too oil that in my opinion, should be kept in everyone's medicine cabinet's.

Honey Bees

About 4 years ago I told my honey that I really wanted a bee hive but of course I wanted him to do all the work because all I wanted was to partake in that sweet, yellow, goodness, num, num, num. So today was honey super day which means he inserted frames in the bee box to trap the honey. I gotta say it again, num, num, num.

This is me hiding behind the trees. I don't have a bee suit. Thank goodness because there is something about thousands of buzzing bees.....

Well hello Kitty Hoffman how are you today. Did you come down to protect us from these angry creatures that daddy just ticked off?

I got the look.....who says you can't run from bees. I did and by the time this was all over neither one of us were stung. I love my honey.

Weathered Leather

Here it is. Many have asked for a "man scent". There are lots of fragrances on the market and frankly most of them make me go into convulsions, burn my nasal passage way, and cause a thumping headache....you get the drift. I have finally found it. Something for your man.

Tomorrow I have a show. Its called Lady LaBrook. We are located upstairs in the conference room at The Bass Pro Shop in Broken Arrow, OK.

Stop on over and find that one of kind gift or find something for yourself. We provide an exciting and welcoming shopping event. More than 20 women vendors will be there with their loot.

Be there or be square! Never mind! Just a little quote from the 80's.

Happy Valentines Day! My absolute favorite holiday of the year.

Winter 2012

It's been a while since I've blogged. Not because I haven't had anything to say. It's because right after the New Year we went full throttle. That's right I have been right smack dab in the middle of wrestling season and basketball season and I'm loving every minute of it.

This is our oldest boy. I won't bore you with all of the things that make him the best 1st born son in the whole wide world but I just gotta say....Isn't he handsome? Love, love, love this big guy.

The blondie #43 that's our youngest boy. This is just warm up before the game. He doesn't get much time on the court but that's okay. He's the best youngest son a mom could ask for. Like I have said in posts before, he's everything that I am not. Love, love, love, this fella.
