I’m Back…!
Hello, internet land. How the heck are ya?! I simply just can’t even believe that my last post was January 2015. It seems living all the sparkling sweet moments of life has gotten the best of me and kept me from exploring further creative genius via this platform. I’ve decided to potentially ease back intoContinue reading “I’m Back…!”

Happy Halloween

[…which may be due to the fact that my husband thinks its cute to hide,Continue reading “Happy Halloween”
Un-Healthy Competition
It’s part of human nature to compete. From somewhere circa 700s BC we’ve been testing our physical prowess and strength through the Olympic Games, and flash forward to today- a healthy sense of competition can still be a great asset.
