My First Post....Welcome Friends!!

Welcome to my new blog! After much a do, I am finally doing my first post."Yahoo"!!! Before I begin, I would like to give a big "Hug" to Jess of "Little Dirt Lane" http://littledirtlanedolls.blogspot.com/ for her help with my blog and designing my header for this blog. I also at this time would like to give a big "Hug" to my new friend Grace of "Little Black Crow"http://littleartycraftycrow.blogspot.com/ for helping me out with some of the add-ons, on this blog. They are both sweethearts for putting up with me and my questions. Thank you, Thank you ladies!!
Now on to a little about me, I am a divorced mom of three wonderful daughters, Danielle, Amanda,and Heather and blessed with three grandbabies Bobby, Landon, and Ethan. Which by the way are the apples of my eye :)I always say "We have a love for our children, but an even greater love for our grandbabies". I am engaged to be married to a wonderful man, and the love of my life named Mark. I have two birds (Peach faced conures) and a dog named TeddyB (Newfoundland mix). Which who thinks by the way he's a small lap dog,shhhhh...no ones ever told him... hes HUGE!!!.....LOL
I am a self taught artist, who has been crafting and sewing since a young child. I love making Raggedy and Primitive dolls and other primitive needfuls. It is such a joy to be able to bring smiles to others through my dolls and my creations. I will be from time to time posting my creations that I will have for sale, for anyone that my be interested in purchasing them.
