    Smile Hi from Wisconsin!

    Hi everyone!! I just found this site, and am really liking what I see!

    I am a home daycare provider, caring for 2 boys, 4 and almost 1.

    I have 3 girls ages 3, 8, and 11. I have been married to a great guy for almost 13 years.

    I love to sew, needlepoint, latch hook, and many other crafts. Have been selling my creations for 3 years at local craft shows and sometimes on Ebay.

    Hi! I was born and raised in Wausau! All of my family still lives in the Wausau / Merrill area. Dad works for what was James River. I think its Georgia Pacific now? And do you know that building that looks like a cheese in between Wausau and Merrill? That's Rondele and were Mom works. My family also grows Ginseng and have been looking into raising buffalo.

    I was home Thanksgiving of 2000 and went to a craft show in Athens. Any chance you worked that one?

    I want to craft waaay more than I do. usually I start a project and never finish it.

    Welcome!

    I've got TONS of relatives (aunts, uncles and cousins) that live in the Wausau/Merrill area... small world. Maybe we know some of the same people... or better yet... maybe you're even one of my relatives. LOL

    Wow Small world!! My family moved to Tomahawk fom Ill. when I was 8, and I married a guy from Brokaw. We live in wausau now! Hubby still works for Wausau mosinee papers, as did his dad and numerous aunts and uncles!

    Nope I didnt do the Athens craft show. I ALWAYS have more than one project going at a time!! Right now I have been working on a latch hook wall hanging for my 3 yo, Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls for all three of my girls, plastic canvas barbie furniture for an order, beaded socks and American Girl, Bitty baby clothes for an up coming craft show, and a needlepoint picture for my nephew who is graduating from high school in May.

    I have been doing day care for 11 1/2 years because I wanted to stay home for my girls.
