Changes

Hello Everyone.  I hope you had a great weekend.  We are enjoying a beautiful fall and had a great weekend.

The last couple of weeks have been filled with lots of change.  Last week I made a very difficult decision.  I decided to step down from the Creative Team at Designer Digitals, a place that I have called home over the last four years.  It was a very difficult decision for lots of different reasons.  So many of my dear friends are there and I feel blessed to have been a part of the community for so long.  I want to take this time to thank Katie and Randy Pertiet and all of my dear friends at Designer Digitals for everything.  You will always hold a very special place in my heart.

Throughout the last couple of years, I have discovered that I LOVE sharing my passion for digital scrapbooking with others.  I find so much joy creating, demonstrating and helping others find the artist within them.    I really want to focus on that aspect of my life right now....bringing my passion for digital memory-keeping to others.    I decided that I needed the time and creative freedom to follow my heart.  I am very excited about what is ahead.

IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE

WITH YOUR VISION,

IT'S NOT BIG ENOUGH

I am working diligently on a new website that I hope will be a digital memory-keeping resource for people around the web.  It will launch on November 1st and I will have more information for you in the weeks ahead.  My team and I have been busy getting our "pixels" in a row and we are excited to share our vision with you.

September Summary

It is hard to believe that October is just around the corner.  The temperatures have been all over the board here.  Today I can feel fall coming once again.

Our September has been full as usual.  The kids are LOVING school which makes my heart sing. We have had a great few weeks.  I thought I would share some photos of what has been going on in the Morton household.

Let's start with Taylor Swift.  Way back in December of last year, our dear neighbors and I decided to have a girls night out at the Taylor Swift concert in September.  I didn't tell the girls about it until a week before and let's just say you might have heard the screams.  Our neighbors are like family to us.  We love them dearly and they have play a huge role in our children's lives.

Here we are before the concert.  Our neighbor's daughter is totally into fashion and set the girls up with new glittery cowboy hats and sparkley scarves.  They were stylin....me, not so much.  

In St. Paul on our way to the concert.

My neighbors hate this picture so I am going to be in trouble for posting it but I LOVE it!  The concert was absolutely AMAZING.  She sounded awesome and her set and costume changes truly left me speechless.  It was SO FUN and I will never forget it.

Most of our time is spent playing in the cul de sac.

Friday nights are spent cheering for the Irish and they are off to a great start.  The kids have SO much fun at the games.  We are so lucky to be able to share this excitement together every Friday night.

A dear friend of ours from California just made the U of M soccer team.....GO GOPHERS!  She came out to spend the day with us last weekend and we had a blast.  The kids picked up some new soccer moves.

Homework time...

Off to school on their bikes...

I hope you have enjoyed September.  Fall will officially be here next week which doesn't seem real.  My favorite parts of fall would have to include back to school times, football, changing colors, blue jeans and candy corn.  What are your favorite parts of fall?
