Florida, Frank Sinatra, the Flu and a few favorite projects




Spring Break was a wonderful respite as we traveled to  Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida (one of my all time favorite places).  This area of Florida holds so many wonderful memories for me, starting as a young child when my grandparents lived within minutes of where we currently stay.  I loved visiting them, for oh so many reasons, and of course, the beach was one of those reasons.  



Years ago (16 years to be precise), I convinced my husband to go to Ponte Vedra ...for those of you who know we live in Texas - everyone goes to Destin, the gulf....
Well, we go a little further to the Atlantic. 

Ponte Vedra Beach is the home of the PGA Tour, The Players Championship (PGA golf tournament) and now is home to our son, Morgan, who works for PGA Tour, Entertainment.   Every June, we become Texas Floridians and soak in the sun, the sand, the shells, the water and the waves.




So for us, March felt like June, so when we came home after only 8 days away, for  a moment we 
thought our summer was half over.  To our wonderful realization, Summer hasn't even begun!!


We came home and quickly turned our home into 
"An Evening at the Sands"- a Seriously Sinatra Birthday party for our youngest!
She loves Ol' Blue Eyes ( and so do I).  Our evening included the gaming table, 
the dining table and a photo shoot with fedoras and a life-size Frank Sinatra (yes, they make one and of course, amazon sells it!).



Frank's Favorite candy and of course The Rat Pack 




Shortly after the party, the Flu came calling and I answered ....it is lingering but I am on the mend.  I haven't been sick for so long that I forgot how it can zap not only my energy, but also my creativity.  

So with all that said, I have a few favorite projects to share with you from the ICE Resin® blog featuring my Art Journal "Hope" and a few from the Studio.
Love this Heart!
