I saved some save or pebbles from beach trips because I knew I wanted to make these. I also usually keep tickets and other memories for scrapbooking so I had items for some of the other countries. Maybe I’ll start collecting real ornaments when travel opens again, but for now these match my pink tree. […]
Or course, all our major plans for 2020 were canceled. Like our June trip to Peru and a family visit to Paris to see Henri’s grandparents. But, what really led us to the beachside town of Carlsbad? A restaurant called Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers. A basic name? Yes, but the burgers are so good! We […]
One silver-lining of quarantine has been that I have more time to craft and I’m okay with that. It also gave me time to reorganize my craft supplies, I love my improved little craft corner. I also finished all my pages from our trip to Greece and France last year! To view those European pages, […]

If you needed another reason to add Italy to your travel list.
Well here I am writing from couch at the end of week 3 of self-isolation due to COVID-19. I have to say, despite the fact that the world feels a little scary right now I’m really enjoying my time at home. I am getting work projects done that I always put on the back burner, […]
Most of you reading this now (March 2020) are more than likely self-quarantined at home due to the coronavirus outbreak. But, it’s not all bad, I like to think of the positive in this. It’s giving us time to rest, recharge, and get to that long list of things we always want to do but […]
