October was a fun month, with Kid’s Clothes Week, Halloween, pumpkin patches and leaf piles. Basically it was just a fun month. I love watching the seasons change. I’m definitely not happy about it being dark already when I get home from work though… I’m going to miss getting to play outside all evening! I…
I am going to preface this post with a little disclaimer: I absolutely love my job. I have been incredibly blessed and am so grateful that I’m able to make a living doing something I enjoy. With that said, I got to thinking the other night about my “dream job”. You know, what would I…
I had a kind of cruddy night last night. Mentally speaking that is. It was actually quite a nice evening, which always makes the random bummer mood for no reason extra annoying. But today is a new day, and these silly pictures from yesterday’s outside adventure put a smile on my face. If you are…
Seriously, I feel like I say this every single month, but September was CRAZY busy! Between work, work, kids, dentist trips, and more work… things were just nuts. I’m really hoping for a more relaxing October. Never in my life have I been one to enjoy Autumn (just because it meant Winter was coming. Bleh.)…
You all know I am in love with George Alexopolous, his work never ceases to impress me. Once I received that first illustration of us sitting on the bench, I just knew I had to order another one. The bottom illustration was a birthday gift for one of my best friends and he NAILED it.…
Oh my goodness, last week was CRAZY! The big trip to St. Louis went really well. I didn’t figure out how to shoot in full manual, but I did learn enough to take some pretty decent shots at the event. Of course, I took the ‘take a million photos and at least a dozen of…
Yesterday we got home from a week long trip to Connecticut to visit my family. I’m exhausted, there are toys and clothes all over our living room that need to be unpacked, and we barely have any food in the house (Don’t get me started on my email situation) BUT it is so good to…
Ever since George sent me the photo of our finished drawing, I have been eagerly awaiting its arrival in the mail. I know my own drawings and paintings look so much better in person so I couldn’t wait to see his drawing. Well, last night I was making dinner when I noticed a package from…
I seem to be in a very easily distracted, scatter brain, rambly mood lately. More so than usual anyhow. If that’s even possible! I thought I’d share a few things that are on my mind, to clear some room for more important things. Like finishing up this work before I leave in an hour. Almost…
Bedtimes at our house are always horrible. I start having anxiety issues as soon as the sun starts to go down. Flynn is a dream. You say a prayer, sing a song, give him hugs and kisses (sometimes a million of each) and make sure he has his carrot, broccoli and a blanket and he’s…
