Happy Summer! Once again, I have made my website a low priority. I won't take the time to get caught up now - I have lots of photos to share! 

I just want to let everyone know that I'm taking a summer break, which is highly unusual for me, but also unusual circumstances. I'll be back to work as usual on July 28!

Blessings,

Debbie

Happy New Year!

Here I am at the airport, once again on my way to visit my family in West Africa! I will return to work on February 25. 

Since I didn’t manage to post this update before leaving home, I don’t have photos to share with you today, but hopefully soon!

Thank you for your patience 🙂

 Happy New Year! As usual, its been way too long since I have posted on here. I just want to make a quick update as I'm on my way to Africa once again to visit my daughter! She and her husband are in a different country this time, and they now have two precious little girls, so it will be a different adventure from last time!

As far as business goes, I've had a lot of fun updating vintage gowns, altering new ones, and am currently making a custom gown. Stay tuned for photos after I return and get my computer more organized :)

Blessings!

Cautiously optimistic

I apologize for not keeping my website updated.  

My heart breaks for all the students who worked so hard towards graduation and haven't been able to celebrate as planned, and all the brides who have had to postpone or cancel their weddings, people who have been isolated from their families, and so much more. Even those who have had to leave this life all alone, without family close enough to hold their hand and say goodbye. This has been a trying time for most of us, and for me a time to let go of some things and remember that God is good and is in control and has a plan.

With less work to do, I did enjoy spending a little extra time with my daughter and her family before they moved to Nebraska a few weeks ago. They came home from West Africa to stay with me until the birth of their second daughter, and for many reasons decided to stay in the US for a time. They are now on staff at Maranatha Bible Camp in Nebraska.

That said, after being pretty much closed for about 6 weeks, I am open for business, following suggested precautions such as wearing masks and using plenty of disinfectant. From what I'm hearing right now, many are rescheduling weddings for next year rather than later this year, so I do recommend making plans sooner than later. I am hoping the worst is over and things will continue to improve.

Stay safe and healthy, and I hope to see you soon!

Business as Usual

Good morning!

I haven't posted photos or updates for quite awhile! I will do so soon, but for now I just want to let people know that I plan to continue business as usual. Clients usually come in one at a time, and it is easy to disinfect between fittings, so I think we are good!

Happy Fall!

Well, here I am preparing for another trip! Two in one year! Beki, Jeremy, and Kalli are home from Niger for a few months and staying with me until their next baby is born in January. The four of us are going to Calgary to visit her sister and her family - first time for them! It has already been snowing there for a couple of weeks...

So, I will be out of touch until October 18, but will reply to contact forms after that.
Enjoy the cooler weather and fall colors!

Yay for summer! I rarely try to take any days off during the busy summer wedding season, but this month its necessary to go meet my new granddaughter! 

I will be back in Canada July 6-16. She is due July 8, so I'm hoping not to miss the big day! 

I will have no phone service during that time, and may not check emails very often, but will be back to business as usual on July 17.

Happy and safe 4th of July!
