12 Years ago on September 9th I married the love of my life!
We have had our share of hardship, trials, sadness & discouragements. But along the way in this journey we have also shared great love, laughter & joy.
Of all the fantastic things that we have shared and done (I believe Damien would agree with me) our children top that list. They have brought to our marriage more joy (and of course laughter) than I can ever describe.
I have learned many lessons along the way; especially that life is precious and somewhat open-ended. What you put into life and marriage is often what you get.
I have also learned to close the noise around me and stop to listen to the whispers of moments. The moments of a smile, a soft touch or even a joke Damien might have to explain to me.

But tonight I must take this moment to thank God who has given meaning and purpose to our marriage & life. Even when we have failed each other I know that God is always true. That in His great love he has chosen to forgive us. And it's only in this truth that keeps me going and looking forward to another 12 years filled with love.
Here are some more layouts I have worked on this week. 
And OH MY GOODNESS…..
Just look at this awesome package that was sent to me from Sharon Lakkonen & Prima. Damien took one look at this package and was kind enough to give me the evening off. I am just itching to tear into all these goodies and create something wonderful. I am loving their Caliope collection, the Journalist Chipboards & of course am looking forward to playing with the NEW Paintables paper collection
