Autumn at Leech Lake

Autumn has always been my favorite time of the year. Despite the fact that Autumn signifies the coming of Winter, where in North Dakota the temperature can get to 30 below zero, I still adore this time of year. Having grown up by the lake, I almost enjoy the tranquility of Autumn at the lake more than the bustling of Summer. These are some photos I took a few weeks ago near Leech Lake in Minnesota. I was glad to have captured these as in a couple of months we will most likely have several feet of snow and 50 mile an hour winds and it will make me happy to look at these and reminisce about the day I took them.

Welcome!!!

Hello Everyone and welcome to my world.  After looking online at so many beautiful blogs I finally decided to make one of my own.  My world consists of my mostly my kids and all their activities. When I have time for me I enjoy decorating, spending time at the lake with my family and all my many hobbies and art.  

It has been 10 years since I started making jewelry.  I first started it just for fun for myself, my daughters, and gifts for friends.  Eventually I started to build up so many supplies and my friends were encouraging me to do it as a business so I started to sell it at home parties and charity events.  After slowing down for a couple of years and only selling in consignment shops I kept coming across all these wonderful artistic blogs and became inspired to dive back in full force!  

I truly feel that art, hobbies and anything that you enjoy keeps you grounded, makes your heart happy and is good for the soul.  Have a happy day! 

Welcome to my blog! I hope to share some fun stuff about my life as well as things and sites I love. Enjoy!
