Generations, the Frost family has run the Museum of Magical and Rare Artifacts, handing down guardianship from mother to daughter, always keeping their secrets to “family only.”.

I am the mother of one daughter and grandmother of one grandson and we all (along with my son-in-law) live together in North Carolina with my 2 sweet dogs and my daughter’s 2 sort-of sweet cats. By trade, I am a techie, by spirit I am a DIYer. I’ve crocheted my whole life, from shawls to Christmas ornaments.

I live just outside of Richmond, VA with my husband, 18-year-old twin daughters, and our two dogs.

Here’s Beth: 1.

Some was hers, some her mothers, some her grandmothers, even her daughters. She rocked her half as choker, which looked great, but I always feel like chokers are, well, choking me! And then Sunday my friend Mikal brought over a chest full of old costume jewelry that had belonged to various members of her family.

He loved it, although his mother asked him at the rehearsal dinner if he shouldn’t go get a haircut! ? We have a lot of free parks and nature reserves for hiking, and a wonderful library system that does free Inter Library Loans as well as lots of e-books. Not at all. Their motto was, if we have the cash, let’s do it.
