Well. I probably say it every time, but it’s especially hard this time to believe the year has come to an end! 2013 has gone by so quickly, and has been filled with so many different experiences and opportunities and wonderful times and hard times. This year was actually totally different than I thought it would be…but in a good way, ultimately. I guess one of the biggest things I’ve been learning is that life doesn’t always happen like we hope and think it will, but Jesus’ plan is the best, no matter what. Even if it doesn’t feel good…

Just Because
We just needed to have a pine tree (or bush. not sure what it actually was), plaid shirt, wintery, just-before-Christmas, scarves and hats photoshoot. These photos (specifically the ones of my brother Jo) are some of my all-time favorites. And man alive is he adorable! He loved every second and didn’t want to stop…little camera hog.
My Ordinary Day : Blog Design
It was fun working with Maddy on her design – she was so sweet the whole time and I enjoyed working with the style + colors she chose!

So I ended up hand lettering the title (this time did it in pencil, and really love the textured look I got!), and we added some soft lace to the header. She wanted to emphasize…
Monday Inspiration
I just love winter. And Christmas. It’s the best time of the year, to me at least! This is my last week of work before Christmas break, and it’s going to end up being one of those crazy busy, pack-everything-in-that-you-possibly-can weeks. Good and crazy. It’ll probably end up involving hot chocolate, lots of design work, lots of emailing, wrapping presents, packaging up and sending off things for clients, coffee, and some knitting. (I decided I needed a new scarf even though I barely know how to knit. In fact, I have a sneaking suspicion that all this time I’ve been…
O Come, Let Us Adore Him : Wallpaper
After making the song books for Christmas, I wanted to use this hand lettering again, so I thought I would just make a wallpaper! I’m a sucker for white lettering on photos (especially photos of evergreens) so this just seemed to fit. Download links are below the image!
