Aloha, all! "Aloha" is filled with just a bit of cheer for me and my husband this month, as we finally are getting our house ready for a move back in 5 or 6 weeks. Yes, the lava is still out there and still threatens to cross the road that links us to the rest of our island and the world. BUT the lava is moving slowly, and no one can seem to … [Read more...] about A Bit of Throwback Thursday!

Missing Hawai’i
Aloha, all! We're still in North Carolina, and I'm missing Hawai'i and the Craft Room.

Now Stampin' Up! is about to release Phase … [Read more...] about Decor Elements – What Fun!
