Awkward Thanksgiving Dinners

November 15, 2018

Awkward Thanksgiving Dinners

This is going to be awkward… Fortunately for me, I love my Thanksgiving dinners! And there’s never any of that uncomfortable silence these two seem to be having.

They're Here!!

October 27, 2017

They're here!!! These arrived at my doorstep this past week and oh the joy and sheer thrill of finally being able to hold this first book I have illustrated. It was all so surreal and a dream come true, to be honest. So over-the-moon to have illustrated over 30+ illustrations for the interior of The Boxcar Children's 75th Anniversary Fully Illustrated Edition. Be prepared for lots more little sneaks and peeks, snippets and bits the next few weeks!!

Feeling ever so thankful this month, and how fitting with Thanksgiving just around the corner. I have the best job in all the world, and don't I know it.

Happy October, as if I needed another excuse to adore this calendar month, my favorite season just got a little bit more favorite-er!

Thanksgiving Friends

November 18, 2016

Getting ready for the holiday where we are thankful. Thankful for friends and family. Of course, there's always reason to give thanks when making a new friend like these two little critters.

I personally am enjoying these many feeling-thankful-thoughts. Hope you are getting the chance to spend some time counting your blessings this week too.
