~Sharing a peronsal tragedy~

For the last few months it seems that life has really thrown us some curve balls.  Our latest curve would be that our nephew went missing.  It is 8 days today.  He is gone, just vanished.  No sign of him or his car.  How does that happen?  The longer he is gone the longer the days seem to be.  We all sit and search the internet for clues, words, signs...anything that we can get or grasp!  Here is a copy of one of the many news articles that have went out about him...Missing Endangered Adult - Chris Babauta

He is 28 and we want him to come home!  The feelings that are present in all of us family members near & far is the same.  It's taking a toll on all of us.  We cry, we think, we pause, we don't sleep, we have anxiety.  We can only pray, pray that he comes home us, his family SAFE!  There is little real concentration, little conversations that don't involve him, Chris being gone.  We are now the "family" that people feel sorry for, pray for and try to comfort.  There is little comfort that he is gone and we have no answers, no leads, we are left with only questions.  Chris, I pray that you will come home to us soon.  We all love and miss you more than you could ever know!

Love,
Aunt Terrie

Getting Started Again!

It's time to jump back in the saddle!

This year so far, has been one crazzzyy mess...both in good ways and in bad!  We've had a lot of personal stuff happening. 

We planned this for a whole year...

^

With this, came all 3 of these little angels...our new granddaughters...aren't they cute??

Then came a very serious surgery for my sister, the death of my brother in law

and so much more...

With all of this going on, I haven't had much time to think of blog posts, keep my online store up to date or have much of a life.

Now that it's mostly over...I want to get back on track and get my life going again!

(And OMG I started a new job in the midst of all of this, he's been pretty patient but I think I've over-extended his kindness...he thinks I'm crazy or have too much of a crazy life to deal with...can he please walk in my shoes for a day??!!)

My hope is to get my blog back on track, get my store up to date, start working on my projects again and enjoy life, family & friends!!

So...with that, this first post back I've decided to feature some pictures that are my inspiration and favorite color right now...

Aqua, baby blue, teal, Tiffany blue and turquoise - they are all speaking to me at this moment in time...maybe the guest room will get a little makeover this month...

This is the look I'd love the guest bedroom to have...

I can't say enough how much I'm in love with Coastal Design right now

I've been working on something similar to this but with a little difference...tutorial to come when it's completed!

A pop of turquoise, nothing better and goes with any design style you want!
