We're Sailing Away

Today Jeff and I will be sailing away to Mexico to attend the Wedding College at Sea and celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary. We're so excited because we haven't had a vacation in almost two years.

Last night we arrived in Galveston and ate dinner at a very interesting place; The Spot. You order your food like fast food (they take your margarita order too). You find a place to sit and then you get a little buzzer to tell you when you're food is ready. This place had such an interesting atmosphere. Check out the graffiti all over the walls below (I take no responsibility for what this stuff says). HA!

Now for the good part.

It's been a while - I'm still here!

Hello!

It's been over a month since my last post. Is 'blog slacker' in the dictionary?  I've read that a blogger should never admit to being a slacker but I don't have a problem admitting I'm a 'blog slacker'. 

We've been busy! Today I'm sharing with you a glimpse of what we've been up to.

We've moved our studio!  With today's hard times we decided we had more space than we really needed.  Moving a studio to a smaller space after 5 years is a tough task.  We're a little cramped in our smaller space but in the end I'm sure it will be worth it. Please be patient with us as we clean up the dust and get settled.

We have some great surprises coming!  Holiday Memory Boxes will be making their debut this week on our Etsy shop. Holiday cards are also ready so check our sites often this week for some fun surprises. We'll also have a Holiday Signature Plate and Snowman Family Print that will make great keepsake gifts.

During the month of September we had quite a few invitation jobs. We worked with some great brides and wish them all the best. I'll post some pictures of the invitations in the coming months.

We launched our new guest book box designs on our Etsy shop. WOW, that was quite a bit of work and we have some exciting news coming later this week, a special feature we hope.

Our German exchange student went back home to Germany on September 3rd. It was so sad to see her go.  We had a great visit and we miss her.

Jeff and I celebrated our 10 year Anniversary. We enjoyed a great day together. We'll be going on a cruise at the end of this month to "officially" celebrate.

Our refrigerator blew out and we had a flood all over our dining room on 9.9.09.  What a mess, 2 inches of water and about 3 hours of clean up. Thank goodness we were home. I didn't even get pictures as we were in such a panic. A little hint for everyone, change the water filter in your fridge regularly.

We celebrated my 42nd birthday.  I am not sure where the last 20 to 25 years have gone. Time flies when you're having fun.  We enjoyed dinner that night with my family. Jeff gave me the most amazing custom text pendant; he purchased it on Etsy.  I absolutely love this seller and my pendant. I am not a very good photographer and couldn't get a good picture of it, sorry.

 

Above is a picture of my roses for my anniversary, a sneak peek at our holiday cards and our Holiday Memory Boxes.

Have an inspiring day!
