Welcome to the World

Welcome to the World baby Hattie! This picture was taken the day she got home from the hospital. What a precious little baby she is. I feel bad I am just posting this because she actually turned "1" month old last week. She was born February 19th and has been such an angel. Of course this is coming from Gram who gets to sleep all through the night every night. Being a mom is hard, being a grandma is great! I went to a Flea Market with some of my friends this morning. I am so drawn to vintage things old stuff, and buttons and realize it is because it all reminds me of my Grandma. She was and will always be the greatest and best influence in my life. I am so grateful for her and the time she spent with me and the love that I always felt from her. I hope I can be such an influence to my "4" beautiful grand daughters, and the others that are yet to come. Despite a really crazy couple of years it is a very great and memorable time of life~enjoy the moments.

"Collection of Time" Clock Class~

I was in Payson after Christmas and Barbara talked me into teaching a class at Paper & Metal Scrappers. It has been a while since I have taught. I really love her and that store and I am pretty excited about this class. It will be held on March 22 10:00-3:00. The cost is $90. This clock is a 24" working clock. It is full of found objects, fringe, bling, and unique items for each little array of numbers. This class is a lot of fun! You will not want to miss it! You can link to the stores website here or call them at 928-468-1188. Message me if you are interested in a kit only at suzricks@gmail.com.

My poor little blog~

 I guess I forgot all about my little blog while I was busy going to Real Estate school last year, my son leaving on a mission, and my daughter moving to Utah with her 2 cute girls. All three things about did me in. But they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. That is the truth in all cases. I am amazed now that I did it! (passing the Real Estate test and Austin and Linz leaving were all in the same month) Life is Crazy! Anyway, here are some fun family pics we did while everyone was still in Arizona. Happy New Year!!! I have some fun things in the works....for real!!! You are going to love it!!!~

Me and my big boy! Miss him! 

 Miss him! Linz, Hallie, and Paizlee! Miss them! But boy do we have fun and stay

busy when I go up to visit. Hal keeps me running and Paizlee won't have a thing

to do with me lately. I sure hope it's a stage.

Brent, Dana, and Cute London! Thank goodness for her! She loves her Gram and

it melts my heart! There will be four of them pretty soon! Four in their family,

and four grandgirls too! I can hardly wait to meet little Hattie!!!~
