hello there.

its been awhile hasn't it. i've been in a deep rut. i've been thinking about why i haven't blogged in so long. i came up with:

#1

its so hot and im sick of the never ending summer here. im a fall, cold lovin person. im not me in this heat. it makes me grumpy. im just ready to be rid of my summer clothes and wear a sweater.

#2

we painted out house, finally! and ive been hanging things up that have been in the closet for 3 years. ahh, its so refreshing.

#3

well, life in general. addies school work, piano lessons, being a mom and wife. well, that just takes a lot of ya.

#4

walkers walking.

dig my grave.

no, its really cute. but holy moley that kid can move.

#5

boutiques. oh my word.

im doing 3 boutiques this season.

2 on the same day.

i know it will be worth it in the end. so excited for all of the new items i have to add.

#6

my anxiety has gotten really bad (go figure). i think i finally found a solution and can go through a normal day without it totally taking over.

so im excited to update this poor blog of mine. to start, here is addies cute kindergarten picture.....

i was so relieved to see that it wasnt too much of a fake smile. she is a doll.

we just got back from another trip up to the mountains. i saw with my very own eyes that trees are changing colors and that it really is autumn! you would never know it in this 90+ degree desert. of course, i have some pictures to share of the trip with you this week.
 have a most wonderful monday!
