Special Birthday Announcement

Today is a special day. Special to me at least. Because today is my BIRTHDAY! My 29th to be exact. And I want to share my birthday excitement with all of you!

I also promised an announcement.

After a little encouragement and a lot of work, I am excited to announce the Grand Opening of my new shop, Just Bead It Design! If you are looking for some cute interchangeable watch bands for yourself or for Christmas gifts, look no further!!

Just bead it design sells interchangeable beaded double stranded watch bands

So for my birthday, I want to give You a present. In honor of my last year in my 20's, I'm offering 20% off all watch bands in my shop now through Nov. 14. AND....if you buy 4 bands, you get the 5th band FREE!!!!! (P.S. the 4 bands don't have to be purchased at the same time) (P.P.S. click on the picture above to take you to the shop, or just check out my sidebar.)

I have several bands posted, and will be posting many more througout the week. I will also be accepting watch face "pre-orders" at 10% off! I will gladly accept custom design orders and special requests. And if that's not enough, I have also started a blog for this new hobby of mine. It is still in the works, but you can check it out at http://www.justbeaditdesign.blogspot.com/ I will be posting news, updates, and GIVEAWAYS all this week, so be sure to pop in there soon.

So there you have it! A birthday, an announcement, a grand opening, and a special SALE!!!

All in one post.

Does it get better than that?

I don't think so. Now go shopping!! :)

Halloween Woody's Roundup

Halloween 2009

1 little boy dressed as Woody + 2 biker parents + tattoo sleeves = a whole lot of fun!


It was a chilly evening, but the neighborhood kids were out in full force asking for treats or promising tricks door to door.


Or maybe I should say driveway to driveway.


Michiganders commune on their driveways surrounded by fire pits, barbeques, ghostly decorations and lots and lots of candy. Yeah....we're cool like that. Just one more reason you should move to Michigan.


I started weeks ago teaching Miles to say "Trick or Treat". He learned "Treat, Treat!" But that seemed to work too. Starting around 3:00 in the afternoon, he stood by the screen door, looked longingly outside saying, "Treat Treat, Please!" and "Go Treat Treat!" We headed out around 5:30, and I don't think I saw a more excited child out there.


The home-made Woody costume + one cute little boy + "TREAT TREAT!", followed up with a "DANK UUUUUUU, BUH-BUH" = a WHOLE LOT OF CANDY! He won over the candy passer outers faster than you can say All Hallowes Eve.


And I can't understand why...........


Nah. Of course I can understand why!

Our evening was a complete success. And I have been enjoying the candy ever since.


P.S. I have an announcement. Which I will be making tomorrow. On a rather "special" day, if you ask me. And there might even be something in it for you! Stay Tuned......
