school's out for summer!!

with school ending yesterday, today is the first official day of summer!! the weather is HOT . . . my kids are thrilled!! this morning when i left for work, my boys were already getting their biking stuff on - they want to spend every waking minute outside!!

noah, my seven year old is heading off to overnight summer camp on sunday - 2 weeks of FUN (for him and us)! he has been counting down the days for months now! we are in the process of labeling all his stuff (i love mabel's labels) and packing his bags! we still have a few things on the list to buy - another pair of swim trunks, a hat, gotch, sunglasses - and i'm soooo happy that i can now get ALL these things for him at cravingsKIDS!!!!

let the summer fun begin!!!!

sidewalk sale

today was my "baby's" preschool farewell ceremony! hard to believe he's already finished his first year of school!! what a great morning - singing, poems, a slide show, a fantastic photo album for each child (made by mrs. skinner) and lots of food!

after the preschool festivities i rushed over to cravingsKIDS for our SPRING CLEANING SIDEWALK SALE. so far the sale is going really well - it continues tomorrow and saturday. lots of great deals at both cravings maternity & baby and cravingsKIDS.

come check out our sidewalk sale (which also extends into the store)!


see you soon!

ps - i couldn't help taking a quick peek at the tables outside of TRAXX footwear! it is very dangerous for me to be so close to so many fantastic shoes!!

pajama day

it's a pajama day today. i can't remember the last time i did this. painted the girls nails this morning and now they are quietly playing with play-doh (ok, maybe they're not that quiet...wishful thinking!). today is a day of recovery from what i fear might be burn-out.

goal is to stay away from the darn computer- ya, that's working out well as you can see. hard to stay away from peeking at emails related to our secret project. everything is falling in to place. getting closer to making our big announcement! nothing more satisfying than seeing a vision become reality!

hope you also have a relaxing day :)

secret project 2011!!

it's been quite a relaxing weekend. goodness knows i need it. spent some time with my 5yo, ryan, running around doing errands for our secret project 2011!!! i would love, love, love to tell you what we have in store for saskatoon....but NOT YET!!! just a little while longer for you to wait while becca and i finalize more details. thinking maybe our annual customer appreciation shopping party might be a good time for the reveal. thoughts?

aside from that (which really is consuming most of my time), i am enjoying the absolutely beautiful weather we are having here. as soon as the little one wakes, we're off to the park!

have a great rest of your weekend and stay tuned for more details!

lots more to come from cravings!

i thought i would write quickly as i am psyching myself up to do a quick work-out this evening before i start working again. the days have been so crazy. i feel like i am working at 110% and i leave completely mentally exhausted. on the up side, becca and i are cooking up BIG BIG BIG things for cravings right now!!! ...and on top of everything else, we're heading to vegas for the largest baby & toddler trade show you've ever seen. walking the 1,000,000+ sq ft space will be a work-out on it's own!

...till my next update with (hopefully) some more details about our exciting news!

a balanced life

it's almost embarassing to see how long it's been since i've written...life is busy and it seems to get busier by the minute. i was asked to write something for a friend about living a balanced life. while i strive to achieve balance daily, there are going to be things in life that get pushed aside...and i guess the blog was one of them.

the store is growing at a rate that is truly remarkable. becca and i are finding less and less time to do the extra things. our families are also growing and with that comes the added responsibility of getting the kids to day care, to school, to day time and after school activities...all while trying to run a business. things were definitley getting off balance for us so we've recently hired a General Manager, Darcy, to help us tackle some of our "to-do list".
