    I love this site so much and even though we have lost everything in the Camp Fire in Paradise California. I can still look and remember everything that I was able to share with all of you wonderful people. Its been a pleasure sharing with all of you and hopefully after rebuilding I can share again. Tanni :)

      Hi Tanni.
      We are so sorry to hear this! Please keep us posted as you rebuild, and let us know which agencies are the best for donations.

      Tanni I am deeply sorry for your devastating loss, cannot imagine how you feel. Thank God your life was spared, and I sincerely hope that all the people you know and love are safe. Our collectibles are only things & you can start over with these, but now you must focus on personal safety. My thoughts, prayers and hopes are with you
      Love Jenni

      Oh no that is terrible. Good luck rebuilding. I live in a high fire danger area myself and this is very scary.

      Thank you all for the support and well wishes you have given. It means so much to our family at this time. Some of my collection unfortunately can never be replaced. However like you've all said at least we're alive and well. I look forward to sharing with you all again in the future :)
