let it snow let it snow let it snow...

it's snowing again as i type this today, but this is ada the day before Thanksgiving in our new yard... yes! we MOVED and bought our first house late this Fall! 

Hence the silence in this space! It's been a complete whirlwind, (total understatement) but all for the better... We couldn't be happier with our decision to move as it's brought us closer to family and given us a LOT more room- both inside and OUT. there's a BIG yard for the kids to roam, run, and ride bikes! there's more room inside for all of us too- I can't wait for the Spring when you'll find me on the big screened in porch off of the living room! we even have a playroom which is a big deal with little ones. It's truly a dream come true for our little family. We're still sort of pinching ourselves! 


playroom! 
upside of now having a playroom- everything is corralled in one place, the downside- it never ever going to be tidy!

done and done! afternoon light is just right... now to find the time to move in and unpack... #sarahearnstudio #thisoldnewtoushouse
my new "clean slate" studio is almost ready... ! 

My studio has been in boxes for months, but that's been okay as I've been very busy setting up everything around the rest of the house. It's challenging to start every sentence with "I wish I knew where _____ " was, OR "I think we'll find that soon...", but I finally feel that we are getting a bit closer to feeling *kind of* settled. It's going to be an ongoing project to find a "home" for everything, luckily I love working on putting things in their place and organizing and it's the perfect season to stay inside to work. Ada and I have been doing A LOT of drawing and creative projects... some I'll share soon! She's very prolific and I LOVE watching her create as it's so inspiring to just watch her dive in and play... 


& !  (it goes with an A and L)    perfect day for some #artjar fun #adalovestopaint #craftsforkids #artprojectsforpreschoolers 

The girls did GREAT with the move, I think they definitely settled in faster than we did and are SO happy in their new PINK (!) room.  Lucy decided to start crawling and pulling up the week we moved so all of the boxed served as perfect barricades! She's now *almost walking* and in what can only be called her "screeching" mode. *sigh* There's been a lot of NOT sleeping around here with teething in full effect, so that's been well, it's just been...  I look forward to the night when I can sleep for more than 3 hours straight and wonder if it will ever happen again... ( I *know* it will... but still!, it's hard!!!) 


I can't wait to share some more here soon, but I thought I'd pop in and say hello as it's been too long! happy winter and 2015! 

lucy was concerned about the chopping of the tree. we were excited :) 

I've been taking it all very SLOWLY and focusing on the girls, so no calendars this year (blame lucy and the move), but I have put up a little sale over in the etsy shop, so be sure to check it out as I have some new fun notebook sets! It's felt a bit strange to take this chunk of time away from my art and work, but it's been really special and wonderful to be able to fully focus on our new home and the kiddos! AND, since I'm completely sleep deprived these days, it's been a total blessing!

  4. When the weather is nice outside, try taking a quick, brisk walk before you eat lunch or dinner. You will benefit by burning a few extra calories, and chances are after some exercise you will be less likely to eat foods that are unhealthy. You will also feel really good, and will have a lower chance of overeating.

  5. Coffee grounds are great for getting rid of smells like garlic and onion on your hands. You can also use them on dishes that refuse to get clean with regular washing. Coffee grounds can even be used in the garden to take care of pests that threaten your plants.

  6. It truly can be a business open door for anybody. On the off chance that it weren't, there wouldn't be that many. You should feel somewhat better and prepared to utilize your recently procured information to start running your own.

  9. Hi there excellent blog! Does running a blog like this take a lot of work?
    I’ve very little knowledge of coding but I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
    Anyways, should you have any ideas or techniques for new blog owners please share.
    I know this is off subject nevertheless I simply wanted to ask.
    Thank you!
