Columbus Tea Party

Yep, that's me...the big PROTEST woman !!!

Joseph Smith ??

Does this look like the Prophet Joseph Smith. Some claim this is the only known photo of him. Wow, not what I expected. Who is this guy really?

St. Patrick's Day Parade

Stephanie came home for the weekend and brought her cute roommates Wendy and Sarah to join us. Along with Lincoln, Halle and Debbie and Andrea...we had a awesome crew to hand out our awesome chocolate dreams and chocolate truffles. Dublin, OH has the most fun St. Patrick's day Parade with their theme this year of having your Green WOW Factor. We really did it up to showcase our store, The Sisters Sweet Shoppe and our catalog for Grandma's Fruitcakes and our peanut butter Krema and Crazy Richard's Peanut Butter. People came into our store after the parade in a flood to check out our Peanut Butter Lover's Baskets, Buckeye Crunch and all our other great products. Oh yeah, we got on some national news, yeah!
We LOVE the Dublin St. Patrick's Day Parade! It is one of the top 8 parades in the US on St. Patrick's Day! Wow !! Here's what the Dublin News had to say, "The late comedian Jackie Gleason was knows for his sign-off, "How sweet it is!", and the Sister's Sweet Shoppe may be saying the same thing, having been selected as the winning float in the parade's commercial category." You can check out the full story at www.columbuslocalnews.com. Considering there are only 3 prizes awarded we feel very honored. We also happened to win LAST year so the pressure is ON for next year. Here's our cute float thanks to the Halley family for letting us use and abuse their awesome ski boat.

My First Movie

And...I showed my movie at the Single's Ward Film Festival and I WON for "Best Movie by a Bishop's Wife !!" Pretty cool huh? I made this as a music video and showed how I just got my camera out of the box and started to make a movie! It was fun. Thanks to my brother Warren who helped (a little) ha-ha

Disney World

DisneyWorld was Amazing ! We had so much fun with our little granddaughters Jada & Kalle...and of course their parents Kimmi and Chris. The best part was the lunch with Cinderella and friends in the castle. I thought that castle was a dummy or a fake but we actually got to walk up to the 2nd floor and go in this beautiful room with stained glass windows overlooking the park and lots of flags hanging, very authentic and castle like. The weather was perfect and the kids were in heaven. My 2nd favorite was the Lion King type show (they had a guy twirling fire batons) and also the Nemo show!!! Wow.

Flying first Class !!!!

Stephanie called it the "Christmas Miracle" and I think she was right. By some fluke we couldn't get out of Columbus to JFK to meet our friends for the trip so the airlines flew us to Atlanta. Just the place where Kimberly and Chris were waiting to get to JFK but their flight was cancelled. Then, Delta put all 5 of us in first class all the way to Tel Aviv! We absolutely had the best time and I was in no hurry to land since we were having so much fun!

Israel !!!

Along the Mediterranean Sea, on the ancient roman ruins. Very beautiful day and balmy seas.
