Happy

Happy Monday,

We had another HAPPY weekend here.  Connor and I had friends come visit us from Delaware.  It was so nice to see them!  I know I've said this a million times, but it is so true.  We are so glad that we moved to NY, but we miss out Delaware friends so much.   I wish we could find a way to shorten the drive between those two states!

I saw a meme on facebook saying there was only 4 more months till Christmas.  What??!!!  Where did this year go?   The stores here are already starting to put out Christmas decorations.  It just blows my mind.  I'm glad we are getting an early start on holiday card this year.

Love this little penguin.

Amazingly Amazing

Hello all,

I have a quick card for you today.  I try to make at least one non-coloring card a month.  It can be a challenge for me.  I just love color!  I think that is why I love this card so much.   This card is full of color.  I love the elegance and simplicity of small flowers.


 No copics today
