Happy Birthday, Jamie!

Jamie has been my dear friend since middle school! We went to high school, college, and even church classes together! Now we are mommies, so instead of having One Tree Hill and Gilmore Girl nights with Del Taco, we ESCAPE from our children and husbands for dinner and movies. I love how life can change, but good friends never do :)

Happy BIRTH Day, Arilyn!

Sweet little Arilyn was born two weeks before our baby Clara.

She is the third baby for my husband's best friend Jared and his wife Jen. Isn't she the cutest?! She will be sharing a very girly room with her older sister Lexi, so I thought it would be fun to do a super girly painting. Note the PINK, purple, flowers, and butterflies. Congrats to the Flores fam!

Cherry Blossoms in Watercolor

Okay, so my mom has been going crazy with her watercolors, so I had to try it out. My mom does amazing stuff. You have to see it. So I tried to do one that was nice and simple, like this window with the cherry blossoms. I'm really starting to like watercolors, so I think I'll be trying more of it. I think I like it more for illustrative purposes more than fine art. I just don't have the technique (yet) for it!
