Cat's out of the bag!

What does that even mean?? Why was the cat in the bag in the first place??

Anyway, some how, some of you have started trickling over to my new little blog.....how did you find it...you are sneaky! I wanted to work out all the kinks and have it beautiful.....but oh well. So.....here we go!


It's still me.
What I like.
What I do.
What I make.
What I photograph.
What I eat (of course!)
i saw today has been so fun for the past few months.....but I need to share more than one photo a day:) This blog will remain here, but I won't be posting anything new.


So check it out. I'm in the middle of posting a recap of 2009 (wasn't it a great year!)....and daily posting will be touch and go for the next little while, as we are heading off on our first adventure of 2010! See you there soon!

changes....

changing season, changing year, and some really fun blog changes coming up.... see you in 2010!
