Thursday Tidbits!

Hey Everyone!! I know this is posting late today, but I have been super busy!! I know I have mentioned this more then once, but I LOVE FALL!!!!! This is my FAVORITE time of year! I love this season in the shop, it is SO much fun to sell!!

Speaking of Bellamia....... this past week marked number 10 on the count for my husband and I to be married and we spent some time reflecting on those 10 years (and alittle before......hey, who doesn't like to reminisce on those dating years......less responsibilities, no kids, no mortgage, no kids, candle light dinners, no kids, movies (with out paying a bsitter, because you have no kids).... Ah....no, really, God has truly blessed our marriage and our three beautiful girls.

I am not an easy person to live with. I do want my life to be used to the fullest, so that meant when he married me he knew to strap on his seat belt it was going to be a fast ride! We have had many adventures and been stretched and strengthened in our marriage and faith like I never thought. We have almost owned the shop for half of our marriage and starting a business is no piece of cake. Trial and Error, unfortunately was a big part of the beginning.....getting past that has taken time and humbling lessons. My husband is a very patient, kind and gentle man. When I mess up so badly, he forgives me before I even asked. I couldn't have the business without him. He handles all the finances, builds and has built almost ALL our displays in the store, builds me up and encourages me with all my ideas, and shopping this past weekend on our anniversary get-a-way picked up a very nice article of clothing that caught me so off guard (I think he's developed an eye for European clothing!!!!!!). And handling all this is just a small percentage of what he does day to day. I love you honey!!!

So just know, that when you walk through the doors of Bellamia, you are walking into an adventure.....our adventure, so we hope you enjoy the ride.............I think you will!!!

Thursday Tidbits!

Aren't these cool mornings FABULOUS!!!! I love Fall! It is my favorite time of year....pumpkin patch, spiced tea, sweaters, fires, soups, breezes, leaves..... I could go on and on! This is also my favorite season in the shop. I love fall clothes! Little boy sweaters and corduroy pants. Dresses with cute tights. It has been so much fun and bittersweet to see some of our favorite outfits disappear off the racks already this season. We are happy they are in your hands and on your little one! I asked a company of mine that make boy 2 piece sets if they would break the set and make me some solid corduroy pants to go with many of my applique' tees for boys and they said yes. They arrived yesterday and have been a HUGE hit, I do not think they will last long. Hurry in soon for your size. Oh, and check tomorrows blog for a fabulous "Fabulous Friday" item! You will love it! Enjoy!

Thursday Tidbits... (a little advise too!)

On a mom note- I'm going to have fun this year even if it kills me.......... Somehow, that statement just doesn't go together- FUN and DYING!?!? I have been thinking about how summer is so fun, kids are out of school, schedule....what schedule, vacation, sunny days...etc. Then it starts... school, the rush out of the house to get to school, after school commitments, homework, Church commitments,homework, work (did work ever end), hurricane days, homework, oh and did I mention homework! My point is..... LET'S HAVE FUN!!!!! Take a breath, slow down a little, and maybe even STOP awhile, do something this week that is out of the norm. Skip that extra activity, shut your phones off and cuddle with your babies, take a date with your honey!! But most importantly, do all of your life with joy and excitement. You will live, because HE died, be thankful for all that you are able to do, because of Him!

On the business note- The "Tea Party Etiquette'" Classes started this week with SO much fun!!! I do believe the children had a blast and learned a lot already! Call or e-mail us to sign up for October classes.

Things might be a little crazy in our parking lot this week due to The Butcher's Block opening today @ 10am. Take note, we do have back parking. I can't wait to see what they all have to offer! See you soon!

I can't wait to see it on your little girl!!! Stop in soon! New store ours 9-5:30 M-F 10-5 S.
