Enjoying Some Time and a Giveaway

Hello Lovelies!
Hope all is well in your world. I have missed you, and my little blog.
As most of you know, my life has been changing so much lately. 
Big changes in great big ways.
 Happy ways.
 With the moving of our daughter and baby Kaia, i felt a little lost for a bit. It took me a few weeks just to figure out what I was suppose to be doing.I found myself just sitting in the quiet of nature and enjoying the quiet.Recharging. Realizing, that there would once again be time for me, my thoughts and all the things I want to do. 
At first I had so many mixed emotions, up's then down's. Happy to sad, to worried and round and round. 
For so long, the days were pretty much busy to say the least. The scheduled feeding times, meeting days, scheduling appointments, loads of chores,running after baby Kaia to make sure she was safe,and the constant clock watching to make sure I was on task. It became so routine and now....It has been a month or so and...
NOW!!!
I have been so busy,I found me again! 
Hooray! 

I have time again for creativity and all the possibilities it holds. I have been spending many hours in the studio making pretties lately. Spending time treasure hunting and getting new inventory listed in the shop.Small steps to Big things. 


Spending weekends at the beach.

Time for me and Mr. Sweetness to reconnect,and enjoy these days. 
Time to spoil that grand-baby. 

Time to make BIG PLANS.

Big plans indeed. We have spent so much time talking about what we want the future to look like, and we came to a BIG decision. We want to eventually be at the beach. So with some careful planning, and lots of dreaming, we did it. We bought a lot at Lincoln City, Oregon!!! 

We plan to build a tiny cottage by the sea. Pinch me. Yes we did!
It may take us 5 years to get it built, but someday, we will do it. With this huge exciting news, I have really had mermaid-ens on my mind. So much, that I made 8 yesterday! They have been showing up everywhere lately, in my journal, and in my thoughts.

I am just so grateful for this huge blessing, and ever so Thankful. It's been a dream of ours since, forever.









As my special way of saying Thank You for staying with me, supporting my art and just knowing that you are there,lets do a GIVEAWAY!!!
I want to giveaway one of these little mermaid's to one of you. :)

Nothing too difficult of your part, just leave a comment below, and I will select the winner from the comments next week in an announcement.
That's it!

Hope you all  have a wonderful week.
Huge Hugs,
~Susan
