The last year and a half have been very busy for us in many ways. We cared for my grandfather until he passed last June and continue to care for my grandmother who has Alzheimers. We then found out we were expecting our fifth child! Our son, John, was born on March 15, 2013. Chuck just graduated in May of this year from Davis College. Cassie has been going to college locally at Davis College and is now preparing to go away to college in September, which will mean I will have one less painter while she is away.
Throughout this time, we still participated in the Hope Tent, Wendy's Walk for Kids, and the Andrew's Good News Christmas party last year. We also continued to do birthday parties and some fairs. I have had many people ask me if we are still doing balloons and painting as they haven't heard much. I admit I have not kept up on this blog as I have had to pick and choose what I do and have simply allowed certain things to go. I have also not kept up on advertising our services as we have been so busy with all these other activities.
I can assure you all, we are still doing parties, though we have stepped back from doing week-long fairs. We simply are not able at this time to give up whole weeks, one after the other, to perform at the fairs. However, on the flip side, that means we are available to do more parties this summer. We used to get calls for birthday parties that were planned for July or August that we had to turn down because we were away. Now we can do them.
Having said all of that, I can tell you that we will be at the Wendy's Walk for Kids and the Andrew's Good News Christmas Party this year. Unfortunately, the Hope Tent at the Spiedie Fest has been canceled for this year, so we won't be at the Spiedie Fest at all. We are currently getting busy doing birthday parties, picnics, and family reunions. If you have a party you are thinking about hiring us for, please contact us ASAP to schedule your date!
