Woke Up To Snow

My Store is closed due to snow when the Jefferson County Schools are closed due to snow.

So far it has been snowing all day and has gotten really cold. Great day to stay indoors and decorate for the holidays. Sam has a vat of soup on the stove. Holiday music is on.

Queenie Milburn-Epler

Queenie passed from this world to the next last week. Queenie lived a grand life with Rick and Kent for the past 16 years. She traveled with them from Louisville to Montana. Then made the treck back with them to settle in Lovely Silver Hills.

Queenie loved to watch animals on TV. She barked and would become part of the show. 101 Dalmations, or really anything with animals, cartoon or not, Queenie loved. Rick and Kent could never watch anything on Animal Planet in peace.

She would let everyone know when it was time to go to bed by dragging her custom Q bed into the room. Recently Buddy (beagle mix) was brought into the family. Buddy would use Queenie's backside as a pillow. Q-girl you will be missed!

Sherry Spurr and Susan Abbott

Several weeks ago Susan had a dinner party in the middle of the week. It was soooooo much fun. I am sick that I didn't take a photo of all the girls. Sherry arrived shortly after I did then the fun began and I forgot to photograph. Also, Susan's home is soooo cute I wanted to get pics of her collections. A great time was had by all! Susan is loved by everyone....I feel so lucky to be one of her friends.

Handwoven Stool / Rick Milburn

For Susan's 50th B-day Rick and Kent gave her this custom stool. Made from found belts Rick managed to incorporate all Susan's favorite colors.
