Blank canvases. Every time I sit down to write a blog post I am overcome with the excitement of a blank page to fill with the details of my life. I am so thankful for this creative outlet. Which is a perfect lead-in... I am so appreciative of art in general- whether it is music, writing, painting, or whatever. I love seeing firsthand how people express themselves in creative ways.
This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending ArtiGras Festival. It was a huge event, marked one of the top 20 art festivals in the nations, that invited artists from all over to display their works of wonder.
My mother-in-law, her friend, and I spent the entire afternoon browsing the art on display. The weather was gorgeous! High 70s and breezy sunny.
I was drawn to one particular artist who carved small fairies to hang from the ceiling. So whimsical and cute.
I ended up not buying one, but one day I would love to decorate a little girls room this way.
Speaking of rooms: We decided on a paint
color I think!
What do you think? We are going to do our living room/kitchen/dining room in the color circled above. I am going to try to pair it with orange tones like the pillow listed above. For a fresh and modern look.
After all the art-viewing I took part in, I decided to also buy a blank canvas and attempt to create some sort of abstract piece for our living room. I will keep you posted.
MY RUN:
So far this week, my workouts have been very sporadic due to the business of my work schedule. but I did decide to go for a few nice jogs after work.

Whenever I can I try to get outside to enjoy
nature. Even if it is in a residential area.
Last but not least, here is a picture of a little bit of nature in a vase.
Bryan brought them home for me the other day. What a sweet hubby he is! Not to mention, extremely hot stuff, especially when using tools to fix up our house :-)
I married a good one ;-)
Hope you have a great weekend!
