I feel that this is completely appropriate for today… enjoy!

I was thinking about how much each generation of my family looks like one another. I can look at my mother’s class photos and pick myself out of the crowd because I look exactly like her.

Here are some lovely examples of the doppelgangers in my family:

Our family produces dopplegangers.

One more for you…

Here’s my mom as a kid:

and me again:

Melissa and I checked out this brand new wedding event called “Indie Wed” yesterday.

As I delve more into “creative me, ” I am becoming obsessed at anything crafty and this show made me want to run out to the local craft store and buy out everything they sell.

Some highlights yesterday included:

Love, Lulu Mae (who I will be chatting with about helping me design an accessory for the big day)

Meeting the our Evanston Neighbors, Dame Couture

and I Do Films

and eating some amazing treats from Jordan’s Food of Distinction I think I almost died and went to heaven eating their appetizers.

It seemed like people were enjoying themselves checking out all of the great vendors and gorging themselves on the scrumptious food that was served. The crew at Paper Stories who were the brainchildren behind the event really did a fabulous job. It’s inspiring to see so many indie spirits in one setting – - for a wedding show nonetheless!

Ahh… the joys of crashing your database.

I’m in the process of trying to recover my old WP posts from my previous server.

Stay tuned peeps – I’ll be back soon!
