HI from Washington State

[AndraHoffman]

Just wanted to say Hi, and introduce myself.
I live in Washington State with my husband who manufactures faceting machines. Also known as gem cutting machines.
We have 4 grown children, and 4 grand babes (2 boys 2 girls) and 5th grand babe is due in November! We have definitely been blessed.
I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
Have a great day!

Hi Andra and welcome to SCS! You'll find this to be a creative and supportive community. I'm looking forward to seeing your creations. I'm a fellow Washingtonian. Go Huskies ;) Gotta say that, my son graduated from the UW.

Welcome Andra! I'm from Maple Valley (SE King county), and this is a great site for inspiration! So many wonderful ideas, I am here almost every day! We live in the country on the Cedar river.

Great to meet you, Andra. Welcome to SCS. I know you will find lots of inspiration here.

As a grandmother of many grandchildren, I agree with you. They are the best and add so much to our lives.

Hi, Andra, and it's so nice to meet you and learn a little something about you. How intriguing about your faceting business. And I'm a grandma too. How exciting that you are expecting another grand. It's a definite blessing indeed. Hugs!
