Bead Diva
(Wende Foster)
Wende aka the Bead Diva, owns a small company in which she sells all different kinds of beads. Either she or someone else host bead parties in their home.....and she has hundreds of different kinds of bead for you to choose from. You basically design your own jewelry, put it together and when you're finished Wende helps you "finish it off (add the toggle or clasp)". Beading is so fun, and is quite addicting. Contact Wende if you are interested in hosting a party, and earning credit towards free beads! (480) 354-5140

Family jewels!
When I was this little my Dad worked at a jewelry shop. I was always decked with earrings, bracelets & necklaces.....I thought I'd keep the tradition going.

Gracie, Quincy & Molly DAZZLED!
These girls have so much fun together! Molly isn't quite sure if she likes sharing Quincy though. (Gracie is Molly's cousin from the Worthen side, and Quincy is Molly's cousin from the Cummard side).

While we were beading......
Conway & Alice had a picnic with carrots & ranch.
(who knows why all the kids are 1/2 dressed)
The boys played video games and played in the back yard.
The 3 little girls played dress up and dance, and then jumped with the boys.
The babies ate, slept, and roamed!
The BIG girls helped with the babies, played school with all the younger kids and had a dance party in the front yard. The BIG boys went to the park and played video games as well. I didn't get pictures of them-dang it!
All in all, it was a fun day. Thank you so much Wende for bringing over your beads, and letting us have a mini-bead party for us and our little dollies! Since I was in my jammies STILL (I can hardly get dressed) and most of the others were in work out clothes....I skipped taking a picture of us (Syd, Lindsay, Wende, Courtney-all sisters, Summer and I-the SIL's). And, thanks again Lindsay for picking me and the kids up. It was nice to get out of the house to try and get my mind off my aching foot!
