Sam turns 30 on Monday

Samantha – Sam to everyone at Moon Haven-  turns 30 on Monday.  Sam, along with Kerryn, Marri and Becca, looks after the front of house in the Moon Haven cottage,   and we would have to say that she is the ultra efficient one of our team – keeping the rest of us on our toes.

Well Sam is celebrating her birthday by taking the week off and going to Perth for a shopping and girly time.  Have fun Sam… Happy Birthday and remember 30 is the new 20!

Moon Haven’s Cowaramup Cottage is 6 today!

We opened our doors 3 days before Christmas 2002, with all the hopes and ideals of new business owners. Little did Eric and I  know what we were letting ourselves into!

Six years later Eric and I can look back and all we can say is Wow…

Moon Haven has become something much greater than we could every have imagined 6 years ago.

What started out as a humble attempt to bring our skin saving soaps, our pain relieving Achy Breaky Rub and our aromatherapy preparations to a demanding public, has turned into a place of  creativity, friendship and healing,  where random acts of thoughtfulness happen on a daily, if not hourly basis.

Moon Haven soaps, lotions and potions can be found in countries around the world and across Australia.  We continue to be astounded by the thoughtfulness of people who write to tell us of their Moon Haven experiences and success with our products.

This feedback helps us to keep on producing and thinking and researching for  better ways of combining our herbs, oils and other ingredients to come up with even more solutions.

Of course while Moon Haven in our Cowaramup cottage may be 6 today, Moon Haven itself  is now well over 8 years old with our first products being made  in our kitchen.  How far we have come…how far we have to go!

24 years ago today I gave birth to my firstborn. Wayyy back then it was a Friday and Mother’s Day was the following Sunday.

I thought that it was so cool that Ben aka Vegemitus McDonald ( as he was nicknamed in-utero) arrived early enough so I got an extra Mother’s Day in.

Every Mother’s Day since Ben hit his 20′s has become a dual celebration and one I very willingly share. There is no way the firstborn was going to share Mother’s Day when he was younger… those first birthdays are so very very special after all!

What more could you ask for on this special day but to be with your son celebrating his life, love and growth? The only way you can top it is to be with all your children (in my case my two gorgeous boys)..aren’t I the lucky one?

Happy Birthday Ben …love you beyond lots…and Chris, your Birthleday is coming up soon …and yes I love you beyond lots too…
