Trip to the country!

Good Morning and Happy Monday!

This past weekend, Andy and I went on a trip to a semi-local Lavender Farm.  It was a trip originally planned for a walk around Lake Galena but we were soon side tracked by something that smelled most captivating!  A hidden gem in Bucks County, that was just too lovely to not talk about!  Peace Valley Lavender Farm is such a splendid place and I strongly encourage you to take a little day trip to the area.  After the farm, we stopped at the Peace Valley Nature Sanctuary and saw an array of wildlife!  It turned out to be a most wonderful day!  Sadly, the only camera we had was my phone.  I've decided to post them anyway, as I still think some of the photos came out alright.  Enjoy!

Lucas was ready to go!












I swear he was smiling in this one!

Sleepy time!

*~Lavender Fields and the Summer Solstice~*

Greetings~

Well, Summer's Solstice falls upon us next week but if your living in Philadelphia you would have already thought that it was in full swing.  We've had three ghastly heat waves with temps reaching into the high 90s, Heather is hoping I put in a pool-I think we are in love with our green lawn a bit too much this year...maybe next!  On the bright side, the lavender has loved the heat and has decided it wants to go completely out of control!  We've had three harvests so far and I am happy to announce there will be at least three more!  Our first batches are drying out and will be sent home to you in just a few short weeks!

We’ve also been busy busy busy making new Charms and working on our “Top Secret” project has been a most time consuming job!   Be sure to sign up for our newsletter as we will be announcing the big news in the Fall of 2011.  Also, don't forget to check out our sister-store Triple Moon Magic at Artfire.com as new Charms are going up this evening!!

I leave you now with a few pictures of the latest lavender harvest-Enjoy!




Hard at work!


Perfection!


Lucas wanted to be in the pictures too!

Have a most wonderful Summer Solstice!! 
Blessings,
Marissa
