an event to remember

I can't even begin to explain to anyone how incredibly busy Jeff and I have been over the last 6-9 months. and how stressed; tired; eager; excited; concerned; and cautious.
Jeffrey and I knew that if we wanted to take Two Peas to the places where we dreamed, we would need help. we had several opportunities and avenues to check out. thinking about explaining the roads we have walked down right now just makes me want to lay my head upon the table. I just want to move on and do the things we have dreamed of. Each opportunity had something different to bring to the table and there was a lot to think about----and a lot of dreams to sift through to find out where we really wanted to go.
This week it was announced that Two Peas in a Bucket has been acquired by the Canadian company Kaboose.
We are excited about the opportunities that Kaboose brings to Two Peas. For the last year I have been talking about the concerns I had about the scrapbooking industry and wanting to find a way to reach new scrapbookers, and to expand what we know as scrapbooking to encompass all different kinds of memory recording.  Kaboose brings us so many resources for us to build on this dream.
For weeks and months we drew up the things that we really wanted to do with Two Peas, things that we have not had time to do, things we only dreamed of, programming we had been wanting to do, any thing we could imagine. and organize them. at this point, my business plan for the coming 12 months is loaded with all of these wonderful and amazing things that we have been wanting to do. and that is just the tip of the mountain. I love the youth and vibrancy of Kaboose. I love the family and mom mission. they are tenecious and have a lot of drive. I love having an e-commerce specialist working with me everyday.

We have been working on so many things for Two Peas. one of which, has been something Jeffrey and I have been wanting for some time... to redesign the home page and shopping section of the site. I am eager to have that done. It is something I have wished we had more time to work on.... site programming and design. we need some updating, some modernization. I am happy about moving forward with this. and looking at the list of the other programs we are going to be working on for the site. its going to be awesome.

With all of the work that we have been doing both Jeffrey and I are sick. It took very little for me to catch the strep throat that was going around the children's school. one mom and one sick child at home recooperating. With so much to do and so much going on, there is no keeping me down however. Too much work to do!!
