The big number two! Two years flew like crazy, can’t believe it. We made it through together and we are stronger for it. I love you baby. Mwah!
Now for a delicious dinner and crepes for dessert, yahoo! :)

Off to NYC.
I was woken up with a stomachache last night, must be my excited nerves or something. I feel better now, thank goodness.
Tomorrow morning I will be flying to NYC! The time really flew by. Portfolio is looking nice and everything is coming together. I should be able to hit up some of the spots Michelle Phan talks about in her video here. Yum, Ray’s Pizza looks so good. I’ve never been to Pinkberry either so I want to check it out. It is freezing cold over in NY right now and I’ve only been there once before in the summer. I’m trying not to overpack my bag with too many layering options.
Maybe just maybe I can go to MOMA too!
Days upon days of art, how heavenly.
See you when I get back kiddos!
Best Friday ever.

I have been on cloud nine all day because I got Pick of the Week on Illustration Friday! Thank you for stopping by and for your kind comments. Too sweet.
I’ve been wanting to get involved with something this year but all of the 365 groups scared me. So I joined 52 Designs on flickr. You submit one design a week. Should be fun!
New York or Bust!
Happy new year!
It’s official, I’m going to New York at the end of this month. I am a member of SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) and I am going to one of their annual conferences.
I am beyond excited. And nervous. You know all of those self doubting inner thoughts? Well I have them, but not enough of them to keep me from going. I think this trip will be rewarding, intense, informative and fun! So that is one of the things I have been busy with, mulling over and all that. I’m putting my shop in vacation mode while I get everything ready for the trip, it will re-open February 8, mark your calendar.
Besides that, we bought a juicer! When I finish this post I’m going to make the first batch of juice, green lemonade. This past holiday season was the healthiest I’ve had, I’m bringing my lunch to work and now we can make our own healthy concoctions at home.
2010 is starting out to be a fantastic year and we’re only four days in.
They Say It’s Your Birthday…

Dun dunna dunna. Gonna have a good time… 
Today I turn 31.
We just got back from the farmer’s market. Maybe we’ll go to Baskin Robbins, 31 flavors after all. I’m loving my thirties.
Such a beautiful time.

I got a new job! For the same company but still, a move up and I’m excited. This year is definitely about change, everything is going to be different. So I went out to get work clothes since there will be no more wearing of jeans at work. J.Crew is the best.
I don’t mind, thanks to all of the What Not To Wear episodes I’ve watched, I just kept trying until I found pieces I love and that fit just right. It’s not your body ladies, it’s the clothes! I did not come home with a crisp white button down shirt, too much of a commitment. How do you keep it from getting dingy?? Another time.
Lately the wedding plans have sped up but we’re keeping on track. I’m so blessed to have an awesome partner through this. It’s wonderful planning our future together and the wedding as well. On Friday I get to check out flowers in person, I’ve been anxiously waiting for this part. So cool.
