It’s not just on this day that I reflect on how my life has transformed thanks to this wonderful hobby/addiction/job, but I really feel grateful every single day for it.

Last weekend I had the pleasure of flying up to Berkeley to teach once again at the fabulous Scrapbook Territory. I taught for the first time there back in November 2011. It was wonderful to see some familiar faces and of course meet new ones. My mom even decided to come along to help and really enjoyed herself. I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed meeting Read More »

Originally our trip to Hawaii was planned soon after we found out the news of the baby. Mommy got really excited and said we should all take a trip there to celebrate.

She has been to so many destinations and experienced all kinds of cool stuff many people only dream of (and some things people don’t dream of – like getting her iPhone stolen). Her Instagram was even featured in my favorite hotel chain’s newsletter. Although Read More »
We celebrated Valentine’s Day a weekend early by heading into major traffic on Friday at 5pm to finally arrive in Palm Springs at 9pm. We drove through tons of traffic, rain, more traffic, and even some snow! The roads were not great, but after taking double the time it normally takes (usually 2 hours), we finally made it safely to The Parker. It was our Read More »
Barcelona is hands down one of my favorite cities in the entire world. So there was little doubt when I was contacted by Kits de Somni (kds) with an opportunity to teach there in May, that I would happily say yes. The event will be held May 18 & 19 in what looks to be a gorgeous venue. It’s months away but I am already Read More »

I wasn’t planning on putting photos in it, but I did want to record some of the things we were doing. Before leaving on the trip, I decorated the cover and did some additional stamping prompts Read More »
