Back to Reality & Some Exciting News!

I'm getting back into the swing of things after a very relaxing, much needed and amazing family vacation to York Beach, Maine.  Every year we rent a cottage overlooking the ocean and within walking distance to downtown, the beach and the zoo.  This year was probably the most enjoyable one yet, perhaps because both of our families came up for a few days or simply because the older I get the more I realize how important it is to take time to unwind, just enjoy family and soak up these moments as much as I can.  It was also the first year that I did the absolute bare minimum where work is concerned, I actually let myself have a vacation. 

We did so much while we were up there, we shopped, went to the beach, the zoo, Fun-o-rama, mini golfing, bowling, a Red Sox game, walked around downtown and got ice cream at Brown's (if you haven't had it and you're ever at York Beach, you must get it! It's near the Nubble Lighthouse, between Short Sands & Long Sands Beach).  Overall the weather was great, there was only one day where we had a few showers but they were over quickly and didn't stop us from doing anything. 

It has been a really wonderful Summer and as sad as I am that it's coming to an end I am looking forward to Fall, the cooler weather and all that it brings - sweaters, boots, the changing leaves, apple & pumpkin picking and so much more.  It also means school is starting back up, however this year it's not just the boys that are going back to school, I am as well!  That's my exciting news.  This Summer I decided it was time for me to embark on a new journey, one that I've been wanting to do for awhile but the timing just wasn't right.  Well now it is.  I'm going back to school for graphic design which is something that has been an interest of mine for quite some time.  I love the versatility that graphic design brings to everything and I'm really looking forward to using it in many of the custom designs I already offer which will provide a much broader spectrum of options. I can't wait to offer some great new features, and as I go along and learn I'm sure I'll be playing around and sharing bits and pieces so stay tuned!
