Amberlight Candles


Bridgett and I attended a Candlewealth Convention at the Disneyland Hotel. We learned a lot about the soy candle products and got fired up (sorry for the pun!) about our candle venture, Amberlight Candles. We also went to Disneyland and had a lot of fun going on rides, just the two of us, no kids, no hubbies. It was a blast. Now we are using our information to help our customers learn the benefits of soy candles. Did you know paraffin is made from the sludge in oil barrels? It is full of carcinogens that go into your air when you burn them. Soy is non-carcinogenic, burns cleaner and longer. We are really excited to share our new hobby with everyone. If you want to check out Bridgett's web site go to www.cwlight.net/amberlights.
Meanwhile, just in time for Christmas, we are planning an open house to sell the candles we have made together and also are attending a Christmas Craft Fair in Grover Beach on Dec. 1st from 10:30 til 3:30. We will be demonstrating how to make candles. I am very proud of our new joint venture. This is something we can do right at home.

Update of family news

We have been remodeling our new house in Grover Beach. More demolition than construction at this point. I am not complaining, our new bedroom will be nice.

Jayden is now in 1st grade and cute as ever, still picks on his little brother, Jaxson, now 4, who picks on his little brother, Addison, 20mos, and he loves to laugh at them. They have an abundance of energy and light up my life every day. I am a proud Grandma and love to flaunt it!

Bridgett and I are making soy candles and giving classes. I am so proud of her and how creative she is! We have these classes at my house and at hers. The name of our company is
Amberlight Candles. What better name for beautiful, natural light. It is truly a family affair.

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was a blast! We all dressed up as vampires! Addison was our little Bat. Our little family trick or treated in Shell Beach with Matt's family and had so much fun. Grandpa stayed home and passed out candy at our new house in Grover Beach, but he said there weren't many little goblins around.
