Update on Me

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. I've been really busy with my floral business that I started. After having kids, I realized how much I wanted to be able to stay home with them. But, I still wanted to be able to help out and bring in some extra money also.

I laugh at how many businesses I've tried to start over the past 3 years. None of them worked out very well. Looking back, I think that I was trying to create and force things to happen instead of letting God open doors by using some of the gifts He has given me.

Doing wedding flowers has been in the back of my mind this whole time, but I think that I just doubted myself that I could be successful at it. I finally decided to go for it and put at add on craigslist. I received an almost overwhelming response. I just had my first wedding on Valentine's day, two weeks ago had an event at the Art Museum in Indianapolis, and I have 6 more weddings booked for the rest of the year.

I also found an awesome person, Chelsea, who does blog designs to help me create a more professional blog. She is in the process of making it right now, but head over and check it out if you get a chance. I also have some new flower pictures on there. It is the www.rebeccavalentine.blogspot.com site . Chelsea is very reasonable in pricing if any of you are interested. She also has a lot of free backgrounds (like the one on this blog). Check her out at http://aquapoppydesigns2.blogspot.com/ . Love you all!
