Lately…...

Lately life has been full….certainly not any fuller than yours, but I am

sure you understand….the good, the less-than-good, obligations, choices,

socializing, working, worrying, being a friend, being a momma, a wife, 

cooking, cleaning, planning, celebrating….you get the idea.

This season of life with teenagers is much of what

I expected but different in so many ways…I find myself wanting

to hold on to the moments for just a moment longer, to take a mental

picture of the significant and insignificant events, to be present {whatever 

that means}, mostly I just want it all to slow down a bit so I can enjoy it more.

Young momma's I am hear to proclaim - THE TEEN YEARS ROCK!

Ok…how about some photos of what's been going on around here….

The transition of our living room to my office/design studio is mostly done.

I am definitely loving the space and having a place to work!

I will have a post coming soon - I promise!

We have celebrated many BIG family events - my 16 year old got her driver's license {yikes!},

my youngest officially became a teenager and is definitely my 'fashionista' and creative soul - she

loves drawing, going to theatre and having a reason to get dressed up.  My husband and I

celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary -{I was a child bride}.  As you can see,

we are total romantics…..

Clients……I am still amazed people hire me to do what I love.  2015 began with many calls

and emails from people wanting to make their homes beautiful….they have kept me

busier than I ever imagined and have allowed me to learn, grow and dig deep for 

creative inspiration…..I never imagined that I would have a design business, but

I believe I do!

And finally, a reminder to all you Portland friends…..

PLEASE, go to the Caitlin Wilson Trunk Show

at Christopher David in the Pearl District in Portland

either tomorrow {Friday} or Saturday.

I am heading to LA for the weekend - 

taking my new teenager for a girls getaway with 

some friends to see Ariana Grande in concert and then to Disneyland!

Hope life is giving you lots of the good stuff!
