Katie and Kelley have been working hard on their wood projects.  

Katie had several orders from people in California, so she decided to drive down with a load.

I can't even say how proud I am of this girl.  She is putting her whole heart and soul into this business and working her butt off.

Her and Kelley will come in the house covered in saw dust from head to toe.  The other day Kelley came in and started digging through the cupboard for bandaids. He always acts so nonchalant, like it's no big deal, but when he finally unwrapped his fingers, my stomach flipped over.  He had pretty much made a hole in the ends of his three fingers. A big hole.  He said he had a board snap back that he was pushing through the saw and hit those fingers.  Oh man, I think he probably should have gone to the doctor, but he wasn't having anything to do with that.  Sometimes he worries me.  We bandaged them up and he went right back out to the garage.

Katie has been making a lot of these amazing art pieces...she really has an eye for this work! Her color choices and designs are all unique and really beautiful! 

She has been working on some Christmas ideas for the boutique they are doing at the Market Place in December

This is Her and Kelley loading up to go to California.  Kelley's truck is so big to drive and hard to find a parking place for, so Katie asked Dan if she could use his truck.  He is surely the dearest friend that would let her borrow it for a week.  Love that guy!

 She is my brave girl.  I don't think there's anything she wouldn't try to do.  She figures a way, then makes things happen. I admire that so much about her!
