It has been a eventful couple of months in the Rowe family. Between the fire, new puppy, saying good bye to Boe, new brother in law, new nephews and niece, Rebekah turning 10 year olds but thinking she's turning 20, and all the challenges of owning a business. With everything that has been going on, it has reminded me what great family and friends we have been blessed with.The Gefrom Family

Rocky (black lab puppy)

Ten year ago Brandon surprised me and bought me a sewing machine that he personal picked out by himself. It was a great machine but had been worked to death. Thousand of hours had been put on the machine between sewing over 30 crib setts, 4 boat interior,s 2 wedding dresses, more bride maids dresses then I can count and the list goes on. So a couple weeks ago I took it in for a tune up cause the tenison was having issues. Tuesday I got a phone call telling me that my sewing machine was done. The only thing I could do is keep it for spare parts or throw it away. I was so upset! I don't know if it was the fact that Brandon had gave it to me for our first Christmas together or knowing I had six Bride maid dresses at home that were waiting to be sewn. I called Brandon upset and told him I was just going to drive down to Target or Walmart and pick up a machine and what ever that machine could do would have to work. On my way to Walmart he called me and told just to stop by Nutall's (which only sales the best of the best) to see what they had. I told him I didn't anything that nice but told him I would anyway. As I walked in to Nutalls there stood Brandon who was covered in grease and dirt head to toe with money in hand and basically told me that I deserved better then the knock off target/walmart brand.
I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful and talented husband that love me so much and even thow he hates the mess that the sewing cause he knows how much I love to sew and supports it.

My NEW wonderful machine!

Just Being Kids!

Rebekah and Buddy found out that my new camera is great fun! They took turns taking pictures of them self and everything around them.

Merry Christmas!

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Halloween Fun!

With the help of Brad and Liz we carved pumpkins for the first time since Brandon and I got married. (Wow almost ten years!) It was lots of fun and lots of work will see if it happens again.

Buddy was not so sure about pulling the seeds out with his bare hands.

Rebekah made a witch cat.


My kids love to try to match there Halloween costumes. This year they were Bat man and Bat Girl. It took Bekah a lot of talking to get her brother to be Bat man but once he got the costume he loved it!

Didn't know Bats could be so cute!

Fall Fun!

October was great! Brandon's sister Heather came to town with her family and we were able to go to Gardner Villages and decorate pumpkins. Unfortunately my camera was not holding a charge so I wasn't able to get pic but it was great to have them here. We also went to the "Scarecrow Fest" this year with Brandon's baby brother Brad his wife Liz and there daughter Maggie. We had so many fun activities for ever age. I don't know who had the most fun the kids or the parents. We have never gone but we had some much fun we can't wait to do it again next year!
