More Tooting of my Horn...

I'm so happy! My cupcake topper made the front page of Martha Stewarts "Dreamers Into Doers" website! And I'm REALLY glad that I just happened to put the cupcake in one of Martha's very own cupcake liners! :)

A Sneak Peek....

Here's a quick look at the flowers I made for "Ella's" 3rd birthday party. I can't wait to see how the whole party turned out! This was a fun thing to do (a LOT of work in a short period of time!), but I'm so glad I did it! Hopefully the reviews will send more work my way :)

Thanksgiving Fabulousness!

We had a fabulous time down south playing in the red rocks!

Hope your Thanksgiving was fabulous too!

I was hoping for this....

... hoping that MaiseysDaiseys would become an actual business that I could do full time, let me be my own boss and all that.... well I think it's almost there! It might just be due to the approaching holidays, but I am so busy right now I feel like I am going to lose my mind! I need 6 more hands and 6 more hours to each day! Drew keeps telling me to hire help, but I just haven't done it yet.... but I'm beginning to see the light! Going to bed at midnight and getting up at 5:00 am is getting harder and harder each day, but it's exciting to see the progress that we have made!

I am so grateful to have new customers, returning customers and lots of shops that want to carry our product - I just hope that I can handle all the stress that comes with it too! :)

Birthday Wishes! *<:0)

Happy Birthday to the fabulous Sarah & Eleanor! Hope your days are filled with fun & laughter (and REST)!

The BedfordFour loves you guys!

How We Did.....

So Maiseys Daiseys just participated in this fun 3 day show....

Here's a look at our headband set up at the beginning of the show...

Here's what was left when we arrived to take down our booth....

I think we did all right! :)

Guess Who's #10 Out Of 327 In Her Class!.....

Carter! Top 10%!!!! Do you know what this means?!!! Free ride to the University of Utah! The only problem is, she doesn't want to go there......

We need a free ride to Stanford!

Way to go Carter! We are so proud!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Describes Me Perfectly!

Fitting, right?!

And the whole time I was walking down memory lane, looking for the little black bears with the red collars and rings with three turquoise stones :)

After checking out the town (and all the ancient climbing gear displayed in one of the mountaineering shops of which Drew proudly pointed out all the pieces which he had owned in the past - which were many), it was off the check out the Tetons, Jenny Lake & Teton village! Jenny Lake was my favorite part of the trip! The view was stunning! Something you just don't really appreciate when you are young. And even though the Tetons where socked in by some clouds, they were still amazing to behold!

So here we are having some fun with the wildlife! Unfortunately the only bears we saw were either stuffed or bronzed. Carter and Macy perfectly captured the expression of this little bear. And we know you are supposed to stay a few hundred yards away from any roaming animals, but this bison just didn't seem to care how close we were! :)

The trip wouldn't have been complete without a visit to "Old Faithful!" I hadn't seen it in 30 years, but it was just as amazing AND smelly as I'd remembered!

As hard as I tried, I was unable (and not surprised) that the little Black Bears with the red collars were no where to be seen in any of the gift shops :(
Like Old Faithful, they should be a Wyoming staple!
