Butterfly Lodge Museum Donation (Greer, AZ)


I just delivered our donation this morning to the Butterfly Lodge Museum in Greer. On June 21st they have their annual fundraiser BBQ and raffle for the museum (we'll be there for the festivities.) If you are ever up this way you should check it out. It's really a neat place! Even though it's almost the end of May I drove through a snow storm to get there and one on the
way home!!! It's chilly and wintery for a few days.

Phoenix Children's Hospital

We just donated a Tree of Life ring to the hospital for Nurse's Week and received this beautiful card. Just click on picture for it to enlarge on your screen (this will boot you out of Blogger after viewing - I tried it.) We're still waiting to hear from the recipient - can't wait to send their custom ring to themso they can enjoy it. :)

New Baby


Not to much to write jewelry wise right now - we donated 3 Tree of Life rings to hospitals in the Phoenix area for Nurses week - just waiting to hear from the recipients so we can send them out. Hope they love them! Mark just finished Tree of Life Mother's charms - they look great! Please check the website soon - or see us for them at shows (they can be customized with the baby's birthstone on the front and initials and DOB on the back.) One other jewelry thing - we are going to start a monthly drawing for jewelry - whoever joins our mailing list will go into a drawing for a piece of jewelry.


Now for a little Alpine Awwwww. Our neighbor Myron's horse Ginger just had a baby last week. He is so cute and ALLLLL leg! I suggested he call him 'Snap' (Like 'Ginger Snap' - ha ha - but he didn't go for it.) She let me take these pictures after I bribed her with carrots. :)

Elk!


Up early this morning - 22 degrees! Got to see a herd of 30 elk thundering across the meadow. Couldn't get a picture quickly enough - these are from last year in the back yard. Starting this month we'll get to see babies. I love Alpine.

It's Been A While


Wow! It's been a while since I've written. We've had some shows back to back - living the gypsy lifestyle. It is actually spring - it came 2 weeks late. Enjoying 55 degrees and 50 mph winds right now! Happy to not have a show scheduled for this weekend so we can get some jewelry made and piles of office work done. Mark is working on a Tree of Life Mother's charm - can't wait to get it out there. We'll keep you posted on that. No other news to report. Hope you're enjoying your spring weather too. :)
