Making a few changes

I've decided to make a few changes that I have been thinking about for awhile. I figured since the rest of my life is in such a state of change, that maybe now is the time. I've decided to get back to being more "personal". For awhile I had my entire CT team doing all my blog posts, my ads, my Facebook posts...and probably more. And I started to feel like I never knew what was going on, and I felt like something was getting lost in all of it...ME!

So, I'm taking it all back over. And getting a bit more personal if you dont mind. Each Friday of course I will post the New Release ad and layouts from my awesome team. But once or twice a week I plan to get back on here and post pictures, layouts or events going on in my life and what have you. Hope you won't mind :)

So to start things off, I am going to do a little recap of the going's on around here.

Summer is in full swing, my salsa garden is planted and growing, my berries are ripe and ready for picking!


With the kids out of school, I try to find fun little things to do each day. Mud has been popular! Bubbles and swimming in the kiddie pool. Art. Smores nights. What are you doing this summer?


I just got back a couple of weeks ago from Washington where I attended the funeral services for my beautiful father who recently passed after a long fought battle with cancer. The service was beautiful, and I got to see and catch up with all my sorely distant relatives.



So, that's my changes. I hope you enjoy what is to come!

I really love it when designers share some of their personal stuff on their blogs too. I especially love looking at the pictures others take. Makes me want to be a better photographer.
