A Home of My Own

Have been playing around with layouts, templates, fonts, and images.  Trying on different clothes to see what fits.  

 Finally feel like the look of the blog is truly reflective of my style.  A combination of vintage, modern, and lots of flowers.  I have long been dreaming of fifties style furniture upholstered with vintage fabrics, mid-century moderns filled with quilts and lace curtains.  

 Plus: Our Lady of Ypsilanti.  Watching over the little town in her garden between coffeehouse and Catholic church. 

 I took the picture in the summer of 2008.  The last single summer before motherhood. The summer I had one last road trip as a free woman with my best friend.  The summer I met my husband.  The summer I got knocked up.   

She is kind of a symbolic bridge between those parts of me that make the whole: woman, wife, and mother.   I'm each one of these and I'm all three.  

Yes, this feels more like me.  This feels much more comfortable.
