So, yeah, we’re almost 2 months into 2013 and I’m just now getting around to posting our New Years card. Don’t judge.

I know I’m not the only one who enjoys getting real mail. What’s more fun than opening the mailbox to find a handwritten card or letter poking out from under a pile of boring bills? This week I was designing custom address labels for a client’s wedding invitations and was having so much fun that [...]

Last week, hundreds of collegians and alumnae from my college sorority gathered in Denver for Delta Gamma’s 64th Biennial Convention and, from what I hear, they had a great time. I didn’t attend this year, but I kept up with the festivities via the official convention blog and received several excited text messages from my [...]
Five years ago today I married my best friend. What a wonderful day that was! We were married at Southwest School of Art & Craft on a hot June evening in San Antonio, Texas. At that point Jason and I had been dating for almost 7 years, first in high school and then throughout college. [...]
