Kayden

And of course pictures of Kayden in the snow. Just when most of the snow had melted it started snowing Monday, so Kayden wanted to go out and make snowballs.

I stayed close to the house, don't like the COLD. Kayden is saying some of the cutest things "That's what I'm talkin about" was his phrase last week.

Kayden in the snow.

Working on a new piece "Snow Flakes" we had over 100 inches of snow this year, the news said that is the most we had in 30 years.

Well that was my week, hope you had a nice one.

Just Another Week

Kayden

Monday Valentine's Day Kayden and I made sugar cookies. Just after we cleaned up the mess from making cookies he wanted to make a cake.

Tuesday we made No Bake Cookies. I left the room for a minute, told Kayden that the cookies needed to cool off before we could eat them and this is where I found him when I walked back in the room. LOL!
Thursday Kayden wanted to make more cookies, but I was out of sugar. He found a can of frosting in the frig. He loves to take the cushions off the couch and jump. I asked him if he does that at home and he told me "Mommy gets mad" when I take the cushions off.

Copyright

Had my first run in with copy right.

I received an email Friday night from The Bead Coop that was sent to them about two of my patterns.

Little Hearts Necklace that I showed last week and Shimmering Snowflake.

Here is a link to her necklace and snowflake.

I sent an email back stating that I came up with both of these patterns setting at my beading table, beading away. They were not taken from someone Else's patterns. I removed my Little Hearts Necklace, because they were so similar. But her snowflake pattern and my snowflake pattern are not so I did not remove it.

I sent the email to the designer that was accusing me of copyright and to The Bead Coop.

As of this morning (Sunday) I have not heard anything.

Kayden will be here soon, he wants to make cupcakes. So, I better get going.

Have a wonderful week.
