We had such big plans for 2020… a trip to Japan that our kids have been working and saving for over a year now (it was going to be our first real family vacay!), a homeschool field trip to DC, several gigs and conferences I had are canceled, and the kids are severely missing their […]

I have HUGE news I’ve been keeping since the beginning of the year… JOANN chose me as a Handmade Hero! Pinch me (no wait, don’t…I don’t want to wake up). I can’t even begin to tell you how humbled and honored I am to have been asked to be featured in their handmade with JOANN […]
The Good, The Bad, The Ugly: 2017 In Review…
Oh my goodness, is it an age thing? It’s because I’m 35 now right? I mean, I swear 2017 just started a minute ago. How is it now 2018?? You know what else is freaking me out, I officially became the mom of a teenager in 2017. It makes me feel so old…which is weird because […]

What A Year!
Is it just me? It’s because I’m 34 now right? Seriously, I remember when time use to move slowly, then normally in my 20’s, and now I’m tearing through time at an impossible pace…haha, at least that’s what it feels like. This year has passed me by so quickly I’m still having trouble getting my […]
DIY Workshop Virtual Party!
