Sunny Saturday

2020 has been draining! Not just a little bit but a lotta bit! Every time I look at the news or scroll through my social media feed its like an instant dark cloud comes over me. On this particular Saturday, I turned off my phone and soaked up some sunshine from my family.

Sunshine on a Saturday for me is sleeping in late, eating brunch @ 1 pm and creating something beautiful with my six year old daughter. We decided to eat lunch on the patio (classic cold cut ham sandwich & a good ole bag of lays potato chips) but we needed the perfect view because ya know eating at a restaurant is a thing of the past.

We wanted wanted a color scheme that was light, bright & happy.
