Mark Twain quote...
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." Mark Twain
I'm trying Mr. Twain, I'm trying!

I'M IN THIS MAGAZINE!!!!!!
So I just pulled my issue of STUDIOS out of the mail box! What an exciting day! Of course I have already devoured every page, but of course my favorites are the ones with my studio in them :)
Here's a little sneek peek-if you've never seen this magazine, then you really must get one. It is full of great ideas for your own studio. It's very inspiring, one of my favorites as I love taking a look into other artists worlds!

If Only...
If only I could go back in time, as who I am now...knowing who I am and what I want and need. How nice that would be. How simple things would've been.

Thankful...
Some mornings I wake up feeling so very thankful. Thankful for each person in my life and what they give to it. Sometimes I realize how very lucky I am. Sometimes I see clearly and only focus on the beauty. I like it when I wake up like that...I know it will be a good day no matter what.

Just saw The Lovely Bones...
Just saw THE LOVELY BONES today at the theatre with my daughter. That book is my very favorite all time book. When I read it a few years back, it left me with such a feeling of hope and happiness, that this life has its meanings, but that there is more. That someday we will understand, and that only good and love are real.
I thought the movie was great. I had tears in my eyes for most of it, but left the theatre with that same feeling of understanding the spirit a little bit more. I loved it.

I got an award!
I got an award! Awards are so fun to receive! Thank you sweet Darla of Artistic Accents by Darla ! If you don't know Darlas work, you need to take a look. Her work will make you smile with its happy colors and whimsical characters. Happy birthday to your sweet doggy too!
I need to list ten things that make me all warm and fuzzy...and then gift it to 3 other blogs that will do the same.
Here are the 10 things that make me happy...all warm and fuzzy:
1. My little dog Cooper. He always makes me happy!
2. Sunshine
3. It has always made me happy to watch my kids eat-sort of strange, but there is a comfort about it for me.
4. Painting and creating
5. Naps-I love naps!
6. Finding the perfect gift for someone makes me very happy
7. My cup of coffee in the morning, sometimes I even think about it the night before! hahaha
8. Watching my two kids grow up to be these incredible, caring, wonderful people- ages 19 & 17
9. Shopping with my daughter-we have fun together.
10. When my kids share a "secret" with me. I feel honored when they confide in me-like I did something right!
Well there are my 10 warm and fuzzies (in no particular order) Now I need to pass this award on to 3 other bloggers that I admire.
1. Goes to Brenda at Magic Garden. Her dolls are just so beautiful and charming!
2. Goes to Loreleis at Inside the Studio. Her jewelery is so cool and different!
3. Goes to Audrey at The Magic, Miracles and Joy of an Artist. She just posted the most lovely bird pics on one of her latest posts-Really pretty!
