Happy Valentines Day Everyone!

Happy Customer

2010-02-15T14:15:00.000-08:00

Jessica sent me a few photos from her wedding in September of her wearing the ballet slippers I made her. I wasn't able to attend the wedding because I was 8 months prego but happy she shared these photos with me. She looks amazing, and those slippers sparkle like crazy on that dance floor!

I am back.

2010-02-15T14:06:00.000-08:00

After taking time off to have my son Jaxon Thomas Flading, I am now back to my normal routine and back to making sparkles. Jaxon was a little early, arriving on October 23rd, 2009. Weighing 7lbs 12 ounces.

2009-09-09T10:57:00.000-07:00

Time is flying by, I am now 33 weeks pregnant with only 7 weeks to go! Jaxon is moving like crazy and we can't wait to meet the little guy.

I had to cancel my booth at the Orange Street Fair this year at the very last minute, Sorry to all of you who were looking for me.

Cameron is back and I could not be happier, I missed him way too much! He had a great experience but I think he is happy he is back too. He does everything for me, and I let him :). We moved into a condo right next to our high school, we love it and are settling in quite nicely.

I have been blessed with two baby showers already and have another next weekend, I feel so loved.

Three more long weeks of work and then I can start nesting and resting! My feet swell now and I don't think it is possible to gain another pound although I am attempting every day, it is amazing how your body adjusts for a baby I never thought it was possible to stretch so far in every direction.

Trip to Iowa

2009-07-13T09:02:00.001-07:00

My sister Kelly and I finally made our trip out to Iowa! We stayed in Iowa over Fourth of July weekend, we saw fireworks and even had a watermelon seed spiting contest. We had a blast, it really made me miss all of our family even more than I already did. We stayed at My Aunt Karen's house had wonderful dinners planned every night, saw a movie, and even went shopping. They planned a baby shower for me too. It was so thoughful and everyone gave such cute gifts. I am hoping we can make more frequent trips in the future.

Crown Bike Bells

2009-06-12T10:35:00.001-07:00

Another bike bell, this cute bell was made for my friend Julie! It turned out so cute I made a bunch more and am selling them. As shown $40.00, I can use any color. Pink seems to be most popular.

Prego!

2009-06-12T10:25:00.000-07:00

I can't believe I am already 5 months pregnant! It is really is going by fast and Jaxon is already so big. Here are a couple of pictures from my Ultrasound, he was sleeping and didn't want to take pictures at the time but we were able to get a few good ones.

It's a boy!

2009-05-29T08:21:00.000-07:00

Cameron and I are expected a Baby Boy, October 30th 2009! We could not believe it, We thought we were having a girl for sure. We picked out the name Jaxon Thomas Flading, we both liked the name Jaxon and Thomas is after Cameron's father. Poor Jaxon already has high expectations to become a baseball player, I hope he enjoys the game. Now that I am in my second trimester I am feeling pretty good. I never thought I was going to say that, preggy pops are the best!

Cameron was offered a coaching position in Sweden this summer, he leaves Saturday and will be back before September 1st, just in time to pamper me left and right. I am so excited for him to have this opportunity but at the same time and going to miss him like crazy.

Kelly and I purchased our flights to Iowa, it's official we are going! We have been talking about visiting my grandparents for some time now and with both Kelly and I being procrastinators we weren't sure it was ever going to happen. Were excited to have one on one time with Grandma and grandpa.

I have been trying to purchase a townhouse for a few months now, I never imagined it would be this difficult. Why is everyone trying to purchase the same places I am? Every place has had at least five other offers, hopefully something will come up soon. We need more room.

Spring Time...

2009-03-04T14:09:00.000-08:00

Spring is just around the corner, which means flip flop wearing time. Although in Southern California you can pretty much wear them all year long! If you don't wear flip flops I can sparkle almost anything; Above is a cell phone I just sparkled last night.

Red Bluff Thanksgiving

2008-12-02T12:59:00.000-08:00

Cameron and I headed up North for Thanksgiving this year. We stayed the first night in Sacramento at Kelly, Hula and Russell's new home and then headed up to Red bluff to stay at the Platners, they made us feel so welcome. Russell and Cameron played in the Turkey bowl, full tackle I was scared Cameron was going to get hurt but I stood on the side lines and cheered on. Thanksgiving was a lot of fun, the whole Platner family was there, my mom and Mama Dee. We each had to show off our talent for the year, I need to make sure I have a new one for next year.
Cameorn and I flew home on Saturday, Kim and Reagan picked us up from the airport in there nice new Audi, then we headed straight to my parents house, I missed them.

Back to reality again, work, work work.... I'm ready for all those Christmas orders!!!!!

Kendal and I were being lazy over the weekend watching TV and someone was given a car that was decked out in Swarovski Crystals; I just couldn't resist myself and before I knew it Kendal and I were gluing crystals one by one onto my car... I love it, it is so girly.....

New to Blogging

2008-11-06T12:08:00.000-08:00

I was just recently introduced to Blogging, thanks to Isabel Williams. I found myself obsessed with viewing other blogs for pictures new information etc. So I thought I should start my own...

So Cal Sparkles recently added license plate frames to the collection, I have had many special requests certain color's designs etc. I have one on my car too, they look so cute. I am not responsible for any accidents though, I know how those crystals can sparkle...
