makeover.

I am in the midst of a makeover in my etsy shop. If you've stopped by, you might notice the new background on some of my listings. I am not anywhere near done, but I figure if I update a couple listings a day, it should be too overwhelming for me.

I have also created some new designs...here is a sampling:

Kites! Oh my!

Dottie & Whimsical

Modern Chic

Pretty Flowers

So fun to create new stuff. Wish I had time to design all day :)

bff.com

So I've we've (cause I am including Tim in this) been thinking lately...that the interwebs could use a bff.com site. You know, something that rolls like Match.com or eHarmony that is for people looking for a bff. Most especially, for couples that are looking for some bffs too.

Lately, it's been getting to us, seeing all the fun other friends are having by getting together, going on vacations, hanging out together and such, that we don't really have any bffs of our very own. It would be cool to have a site that could match you up with other couples with kids or sans kids (depending on how you roll), no?

I think this is how my advert might read:

MWM/MWF + lil' shortie age 2
Christian, late 20s/early 30s age group 
Looking for a fun couple who likes or would attempt to try fun activities, not limited to: hanging out, mountain biking, going out for dinner, eating ice cream, dirt biking, going on vacations, bar-b-quein' in the backyard, watching movies, playing sports such as baseball and/or homerun derby or watching them on TV, skiing/snowboarding, boating, swimming, playing games and acting crazy. Good sense of humor is a must!

I dunno...might be a little much? :)

reflecting...

My friend Courtney & D.G. were married on April 30th.

It was a fantastic wedding filled with love and laughter on a mildly, sunny day in Dearborn, Michigan. I felt lucky and honored to be part of it. I could not be happier for the both of them.

They are two of the most kindest & generous people that I know. In fact, when Leighton was born, I was in the hospital for a few days (C-section) and besides my immediate family, they were the only two of my friends that came to see Leighton & I. During that time...I was really emotional (go figure, crazy pregnancy hormones!) and I will always remember that. They will never know how much that meant!

This is one of my favorite pictures - it captured the day exactly as it should be remembered - as two people so, so happy and truly in love with each other. xoxo.
