new year!

Happy 2013!

I got all my hairs cut! It feels so much better:)

Are you ready for the new year?

I can honestly say I am anxious for what this new year is going to bring and not quite ready.  I'm holding onto God in full confidence that HE knows our future and it's all good!  Lot's of exciting news for our family!

We have a beautiful little newborn girl in our family, I am so proud to be an auntie again!   I love newborns, they are so little and perfect.  It's not always easy to see that as a new mom, but looking back, it is a special time for a woman :)  I love a newborn baby smell!  I cannot wait to hold her in my arms! She was born, yesterday and we are going to see her on Wednesday evening.  I'm so excited!!

So, the kids are back in school and the schedule is back to normal.  I miss them at home, but it feels good to catch my breath! Whew!

I've started a new painting and it's been very cool to stretch out on a bigger canvas! Pics to come ;)

I'm not really a fan of resolutions but I have goals for 2013 - maybe it's just symantics but the word "resolution" just doesn't help me....

This year as an artist, I hope to:

  • have an art show
  • start Kickstarter and get all of you involved in the process - I'm a little scared but it's a good scared, like getting ready to go on a roller-coaster!
  • sell more prints and pendants (with my art inside of glass) on Etsy
  • Lead more workshops
  • get involved in Alamo Danville Artists
