Every year we visit Michigan to experience Autumn in all of its glory. Last year was no exception to the abundance of fall colors all around. Similar to years past we took our time driving through the Michigan area stopping frequently to take photos. There is nothing like lovely long drives amidst the beautiful fall…

Flashback Friday: Art, Music and fun #art #music# ink #collage #NapervilleIL
September is that wonderful time of year that merges the warmth of summer with the promise of fall. It is the time of year where the last of the warm weather festivals take place. Around this time last year we attended Naperville’s annual art walk. It is one of my favorite festivals to attend. There…
Flashback Friday: Festival of the Vine #art #ink #wine #GenevaIL
Nothing could be more beautiful than a sunny day, wine and good company. That’s exactly what happened last year on September 12th.

Flashback Friday: New Year, New Day #art #ink #birthday
Did you ever have that moment of when you finally have to time to sit down and write when this happens…. Nothing. It can be frustrating to look forward to something all day and not think of a single thing to say when the moment arrives. Obviously even as I am writing this I am…
Fresh Beginnings #art #pen #ink #loss
Sorry I have been away for a while. Regrettably I have been on an emotional roller coaster ride since April. From multiple family deaths, to celebrating birthdays, to celebrating our pregnancy, to mourning the loss of our baby is some of the major reasons I have been away for so long. But I do not…
Flashback Friday: Sing Your Song #art #ink #markers
Everyday brings its own set of challenges that defines us. Some of these challenges can make us strong, make us wiser, and teach us to be okay with ourselves. Some days we are awesome at conquering these challenges, while other challenges can tear us down. Yet even though we can be brought down, we can rise again stronger than…

Greetings, It’s late at night and I just remembered I haven’t posted this week’s flashback post yet. Ugh. I’m tired.
