The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; Your love, O Lord, endures forever ~ do not abandon the works of Your hands. Psalms 138:8



Cranberry Creek

This time of year is always crazy busy with Cranberry Creek....for those of you who are new to my blog....I produce and market a Cranberry Pudding at high-end craft venues. For my American friends...it's like an English plum pudding but with fresh cranberries. We travel to high-end craft venues across Canada during October, November and December. I am always amazed at where this old family recipe has taken us. We are blessed to have had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people while traveling with CC.

This year was special because so many of our kids were able to help out and travel with us. We need seven workers in the booth all day every day....in a 10 x 15 booth....we get to know each other VERY intimately. LOL


Christy came across from the Island to help at the Vancouver show. This was a first for her leaving her hubby and babe for so long...so we planned a surprise visit from Trevor....the photos above were taken right after he arrived. She was SO surprised, it was fun...but of course the first thing out of her mouth was..."Did you bring Denay?" Unfortunately, wee Denay had to stay home with Oma and Opa. (unfortunate for us - a blessing for Oma and Opa!)


The other photos are of Bob....his brand new dockers ripped right in "the area"....so he had to duct-tape them together to get himself back to the hotel. The next morning he showed up with his "alternative attire". I had to remind him that we do have a strict dress code at CC....it's so hard to find good help!



Paul, Shawna and the boys dropped by for a visit on Sunday afternoon....they didn't work this show, but the boys had some on-the-spot training.



My DIL Lindsey came to Calgary to work with us...dear friends Diane and Anna, too. My neice, Kathie always works for us in Calgary....we are blessed to have so many great workers. Diane has worked almost every show with us the last few years....she is definitely my righthand man....and we have SO MUCH fun together, too.



Our very own studly group....the ladies just love them!

We have such a great time....although insanely busy...we always manage to have some great laughs, too.
