A summer flower update

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Well, Graduation has come and gone..It wasn’t a big flower week but boy was there lots of balloons purchased. Unbelievable! Prior to that I did a piece for my son -n -law’s grand-dads service and they stopped by and picked it up to take with them as it was up around Monroe, WA.

Things will slow down a bit as it usually does around summer time.. I have a couple of Weddings to do but other than that not much else. Just the occasional flower arrangement now and then. But do know if anything exciting happens you will be the first to know.. Have a great week and enjoy the sunshine while it last

Smiles to you,

Busier at the new digs

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

I am not posting any pictures as I have slacked on that this time around. But wanted to let you know that so far the shop is busier than it was over at the other place. This summer will be the testing point.

Right now I am getting ready for “Graduations” in the area and a couple of up coming weddings one in June and one in July. Memorial weekend proved to be not a huge flower event this year again probably because people can pick flowers from their yard and keep the expense down. So I took the weekend off and worked around the home front.

TwistedVine is planning on having it’s two year anniversary and grand opening of its new location this Funtime Festival in Napavine. So we will be sure to post the events from that special day.. Until then …

Enjoy the Sunshine! Sharon

Bizzare weather in rural Washington

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

The month of Dec and so far January has been totally bizzare. We averaged about 22″ out at our home which is the most snow I have seen here in WASHINGTON through out my adult life. Then low n behold if the rain didn’t start, it is terrible.

I woke up this morning and looked outside and thought wow.. we are starting to flood and we live on a hill top. When I got to the shop I thought now this is good.. There isn’t water all around the building but I am sure if it continues it will be soon. I turned on the sign and got busy bringing out my little bit of Valentine’s stuff..ordered my candy for the shop and did a couple of arrangements. Now it is time to start in on all the year ending books.. So hope you all have a great day..Until next time.. Sharon

Love in a tough holiday season

Live Laugh Love

Happy Holidays to all of you! It is hard to imagine that Christmas is just around the corner and the year 2009 is almost upon us.

Me and the tree

It has been a challenging year for many and as we come to the end of it.. my thoughts are with all those who have had to close their doors with their business and have lost their jobs due to the tough economy. We can only pray that this coming year is a start to something better for everyone including myself.

With saying this.. promise to remember that even in the badest of times we are fortunate to have LIFE, OUR FAMILIES and FRIENDS. Time is precious… so don’t let it pass you by. Tell your Family and Friends, that they mean everything to you and never take anything or one for granted as things can change in a heart beat. It’s all about unconditional LOVE.

Merry Christmas to All and Best Wishes for a more positive NEW YEARS!
