Default Today's Big Shoe...(show...lol)

SOOOO...today was the day for my show with the nice police man and his wife at their home. I made them stuffed bell peppers and almond berry trifle. (showed of the trifle bowl, large bar pan, and large round playyer from SA line).

I am VERY pleased so far. 11 guests, not including them, and 1 booking, but sales are at $775 right now and she (cops wife) has more coming from work, as does he. YEA!!! This was just the motivation I needed to keep my chin up and keep rolling with this business!

PLUS!! my replacement order arrived this morning! What a wonderful day this has turned out to be!!

Thank you all for your blessings and well wishes. I owe this bit of success to each and every one of you!! (and yes I did tell "my story" at the begining of the show and after that nothing could have gone wrong!)

That explains why Leah and I didn't see you at the Bridal Fair at Chinook Winds today. I am sooooooo happy to hear that you got your replacement order and that this show is over $700 and growing.....

Oh by the way the Bridal Fair was very good. We both got several Brides to fill out the quick registry form. Got leads for shows and outside orders. All in all a very good day.

Great job Darby! Isn't amazing how God can turn something bad happening into something so good! If not, for the stolen show this may never have happened!!!

hehehehee...I know. I am so giddy about the whole thing. DH and Ihave been praying ALLOT lately for things to just turn our way after so many years of turmoil (we had to stop, look, and see what was blocking our blessing) and as soon as we did...thisngs are begining to change. Ahhhhhh...is all I have to say...a weight off my spirit.
