It's a new year!
#1 resolution: Blog MORE!
I LOVE my family & I feel so blessed every single day to be married to the LOVE of my LIFE & to be mother to my 3 beautiful girls.
These 3 little girls are each so amazing and special in their own way. I feel honored to be their mother & to be able to watch them grow into strong beautiful young ladies.
Bring it on 2013.
I can't wait to experience all the amazing things this year has in store for US.

I absolutely LOVE creating these signs. It's a constant balancing act, being a mom, having time to create, blog(as you can see I am clearly slacking) run kids around, do laundry...Some how, some day it will all come together...
These are all available for order in my etsy shop
You can now order directly from my BLOG! Just click HERE, or on the "SHOP" button above.
Currently I am offering just these two items, but I'll be adding more soon...
All of my pieces are handmade by ME, with much love & attention to detail. I do not generally keep inventory, only because I can't produce as quickly as they are ordered...therefore please expect your sign to ship 3-4 weeks from the time of your purchase. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email: emsrooney@gmail.com.
p.s.- I really LOVE Monday's!
This is my, it's been a great day of rest, so happy to begin a new week, face. A post spring break, catching up on being all together and being at home kinda day. I have so much to be grateful for! It's so good to reflect, and look forward to good things coming our way.
The studio was a major WRECK from me scrambling to get things taken care of before leaving town for a few days. Finally tonight, I was able to pick up, clean off, throw away. It really is amazing the feeling I get after getting things in order. Here are a few snap shots of how things are shaping up around here.
Mind you, it may not appear too orderly, but you didn't see the before. This a huge improvement. I was even lucky enough to have Gavin painting in the studio with me tonight. He is such an amazing artist! (note: the elk painting on the easel back there)
Bring it MONDAY, I'm so ready for you!
A few weeks ago, I was lucky to spend a few days in the mountains with the above super cool chicks. It was RADICAL.
Tomorrow I head back to those same mountains with my 3 little girlies for some MORE snowy adventures. We're all VERY excited, fun times ahead!
This is my absolute favorite time of year here in ARIZONA. The days are getting longer, the weather is perfect for being outside, the desert is in bloom & I just feel happy.
From Easter 2011
Happy spring!
Coyote Calling...
Kennedy, Rivers & Scout idolize their daddy. Rightfully so. I couldn't ask for a better father to my children.
Gavin is very passionate about hunting, he was raised hunting & it is just part of his nature to want to go out into the forest and shoot something. He is doing his part to conserve nature & wildlife. This may sound contradictory to some, but there is a definite need for animal population control.
Varmint hunting is one of the ways to do this. Gavin & his dad "Papa" took the girls out & they had a successful trip. 2 dogs down.
I'm so grateful for Gavin & the importance he puts on building a strong family bond. You make me so happy Babe!
I have decided: MY blog doesn't need to be chronological, or methodical. I am a this and that kind of girl. So, for now, my blog will be very RANDOM. But, potentioally this will enable me to throw my inhibitions about blogging aside and I will feel free to DOCUMENT this little life of mine. That being said...
After Christmas (which was awesome & will be blogged about at some point) We headed to my parents beach house in San Diego. So much fun was had & good memories made, they must be remembered.
PROOF:
beach
bikes & such:
Gavin made me promise to NEVER post a pic of him in spandex, hence the above cropped photo. Sorry you all are missing out on the rest of this pic, cause he looks dang good!
Everything in between:
& we celebrated my BEAUTIFUL mom's birthday out to lunch at the Cottage in La Jolla. YUM!
Thanks MOM & DAD, for always letting us stay at your beach house, NO matter how many of us there are with all our CRAZY kids. YOU guys are the BEST!!
