Homeowner!

Well all it is official! Greg and I are homeowners. We closed on our condo last night! very exciting. We're moving on Saturday. If anyone wants to come help me paint in the next couple weeks just let me know...lol

Fort Foster

So the fam all met up at Fort Foster Saturday...the weather gods worked things out for us and we ended up having a really nice day. We got cut a little short due to some thunderstorms, but all in all it was a sunny warm day. I loved seeing my sisters and their families, my mom, and my dad, all of whom I don't see very often anymore. I wish I could spend more time with them, but it almost makes days like Saturday seem all the more special.

True Story - I love these lyrics

I am a gifted artist. I've learned to paint this canvas well. I work until I've finished an ideal image of myself, but you know better.
I am a storyteller; quite brilliant if I do say so. I tell them tales they want to hear, and they believe it's me they know. But you know better.
The world might think me foolish if they could see beneath my mask. They might find my dreams laughable or be embarrassed by my past, but you know better...

You see my imperfections, still you say I'm a masterpiece. A marvelous reflection - the image of yourself in me. You paint with strokes of grace undoing my disguise. You say beauty lies in the true story.


If only we could all see the true story...in ourselves and in each other...

Rain

Anyone sick of the weather pattern yet? Got to be setting a record for the number of days with rain in a summer...what crap.
