Just wanted to share that my son was born August 20th at 12:36 am weighing 8 lbs 3 oz, 21 1/2 inches long. He is certainly our greatest treasure! We love him so much!.

congratulations on the little one Erica! Thats so exciting!

Thanks Carla! Im not sure why she didnt link up that bag, but even still the "likes" and "looks" have been boosted a ton!

Congratulations Erica! I hope you're feeling well - I'm actually surprised to see you on Etsy. Hope you're getting your sleep.

Busy summer for me with work, craft shows, special orders and more so I'm finally getting back to my Etsy shop. It has been seriously neglected. Anyone have any exciting vacation trips this summer?

[Former_Member]

My oldest son starts school next weekend so this weekend were going to the huge car show at Krull Park which is in Olcott where the cool beach and Carousel is! I love it there... wish we could move there I love it so much.

We never got to experience the amusement park yet though...so hopefully Saturday we can.... and my friend's son is having a zombie themed birthday party so I'm dropping off a zombie themed gift for him....don't think I'm going to make it.....feel better Erica!

My fiance and I took a road trip to Colorado a couple of weeks ago! It was amazing, so neat to see so much of the country. We also drove home by way of South Dakota so we got to see Mount Rushmore and Badlands National Park. I have to say, Badlands was my favorite part of the trip. Breathtaking.

[Former_Member]

Thanks everyone! Actually glad I didn't put my shop on vacation. Since I've been home I've had three sales. I also got featured in a blog/giveaway and getting high stats. Getting a few hours sleep and checking etsy between those times lol
Nice trips, I love traveling!

[716Buffalos]

A big YAY on the sales, Erica! Baby Evan is a good luck charm!

Lisa: Awesome trip! I haven't seen the Badlands or Mt. Rushmore since --- yikes! --- 1985!

Sara: It was great to see you and your mom at the Elmwood Ave. Art Festival last weekend! Got a chance to chat with Nicole (Mealy Monster) and Alison (Silent Mylo), too! Props to everyone who did the show --- it's a ton of work (and I say this just as an observer)!

I've had 2 mini trips this summer: a 4-day jaunt to Maryland in July, and a fabulous 4 days of sensory overload in my #1 vacation destination --- NYC --- about 2 weeks ago!

Feel better shout-outs to Shaun and Tracy!

[Former_Member]

Wow, great vacations guys....we went to my mom and dad's in Punxsutawney PA.... it's always lovely there for a mini family visit.

[Former_Member]

No more chatterboxes? See you guys at the meeting!

[716Buffalos]

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day! Did you do something fun? Tell us!

[Former_Member]

Oh we did,,,, How was everyone else's?

[716Buffalos]

I was at Village ARTisans today and saw some reeeeeally cute Halloween earrings by RoadKiln and Halloween cards by Zee Best Cards!

Who else has been making Halloween stuff?

[Former_Member]

I am always making Halloween stuff! I finished a cute toy set of a witch and her cat. As soon as it's October I'll be creating some cool Halloween things for in the house such as ghosts I'm thinking... I painted one of my most amazing paintings yet last night and I adore this painting! It's on my facebook page if anyone wants to search for it.

Right now I'm making some alien ships for my little one to paint whatever color he wants to go along with the aliens I already made him.... pretty happy with it.
