WISH List

My new love...wire baskets.

I love linens multiple personalities. Sometimes it looks classic and well put together; other times casual and a little messy!

Beautiful! I would add some aubergine colored pillows to this bed.

Bella Beach Family Reunion


I have so many pictures from this trip to Bella Beach for a family reunion but I'm only going to post a few. I am so tired from this vacation, but it is the good kind of tired. So many memories were made on this trip!



Greg rode to Lincoln City (we took the team car)!  You're feeling great....good, because you have 112 more miles to go!
This is where we called home. The name of the house was appropriately called "It must be 5:00 somewhere"

Good idea to build a trench to keep the water out.

I think you need to rethink your design.

The water was very cold.  My entire backside was drenched after this shot, but so worth it!

The weather was so good it felt like we were in California.

I love this picture of Greg with his cousin. They hosted all the dinners, beach fires and crazy fun activities! Look at that view, I did not want to leave!

The "Chick" Series

What kind of "Chick" are you?



 I know a lot of fabulous chicks! I have been drawing a series of chicks and my most recent is of my Super Lacrosse Chick (niece Anna). She is having withdrawals because her season is over.....it's OK....you'll be swinging that stick in no time.
#20 is TOUGH!
My "Fashion Chick" friends always look put together no matter what they wear.....
unfortunately, I am not their size and cannot borrow anything.
I enjoy being the "Garden Chick"......
but only when my  "Garden Dude"  is around!
"Surfer Chick" is my favorite. I pretend that I'm a surfer chick in mind and in spirit! I think garden dude likes surfer chick the best too..............


Coming Soon:

Coffee
Art
Bike
and Foodie Chicks

Swim, Bike, Run and Drink

Yes, swim, bike, run and drink......you read correctly. Many of my friends (and people who live in my own house) do these activities often, so I am dedicating this wine box to you. The starting of summer for me is when the Tour De France starts. I'm hooked! Bright and early every morning for three weeks I tune into my two favorite announcers and watch incredible athletes ride for 100 plus miles a day.  Anyone who has ridden a bike would know how difficult this race is. I know, sometimes doping is involved.........I love it anyway. Cheers to all the athletes in my life! Please don't drink while you're doing the first three........

I love to ride my bicycle!
Drink to good health!
I will be doing a lot French inspired work this month.
