This is a picture from this morning. We are visiting my family in San Angelo. My husband is still in Lubbock, but will head down here on Saturday to pick us up. We sure do miss PapaCakes!

My computer is on the fritz, so it's an Instagram photo this week. I love this picture. Amelia is 8 weeks old this week. I got her a little grey elephant for Valentines day that she loves. So here is a little extra cuteness.

Happy Vinyl Day

Happy Valentines Day!

Right now my husband is playing a show in town with Lucero. So I am making chocolate mustaches and hearts, listening to vinyl, and dyeing my hair. Amelia is sleeping in her swing like a little angel.

My husband and I have a Valentines Day tradition where we buy each other vinyl and usually eat Asian food. So it's been a great day!




I've also been hard at work on my dolls and a cute (and quick) business card idea. Here's a sneak peek at some unfinished dolls.





I hope everyone had a wonderful day and stay tuned for the official opening of my shop soon!

That's What She Said Sunday

I feel like I am drawn to things that most people would pass by or deem ugly. I kinda like those things because no one has them. Who wants something that is boring?!

Be Present

Recently I was in the waiting room at the doctor's office and I noticed that everyone (and I  mean everyone) was completely absorbed in their phones. I was the only odd ball reading a real book. Since that day I notice it everywhere I go, even at home. I'm not gonna lie and say I'm never on my phone because that would be a lie, I am addicted to Instagram, Twitter, and now Vine.

This observation has got me thinking about how things used to be before we all had iPhones as an extension of ourselves. What are we missing out on as our heads are down, eyes locked onto the tiny screen?

So this is my reminder to you, to put your phone down sometimes and just relish in the moment now. You may be missing out on something precious while you're trying to document and share it with the world. Just enjoy, and be present. I know I am...

That's What She Said Sunday

Happy Super Bowl Sunday. If I had cable I would watch it for Beyonce. I'm sure her performance will be on YouTube later.
